She said I embarrassed her publicly when she was mourning her ex’s death.
I did not mention my friend, but she immediately “unfriended” me with a comment that I had “called her out” and embarrassed her, that she was struggling with her own grief and that I was selfish to post something like this “for attention.”
I emailed her numerous times and apologized if I had offended her. It has been almost three years, and I still reach out to her occasionally with an olive branch by email or phone. But there is no response; it seems she has decided my offense was unforgivable, and I am now grieving the end of a 20-year friendship over a social media post.GENTLE READER:
Your original post was a public service, Miss Manners understands. She also understands why your friend did not see it that way.The real question is: Was it so bad that you cannot be forgiven? Miss Manners is inclined to agree that your friend is overreacting — assuming, of course, that the apology was for the post and not merely for your friend being offended by it.
