Imagine you broke up a friendship because of really fucked up shit and one of those girls is looking to befriend you again for some reason. I have a hard time opening up to people so doing that again with someone that has hurt me is extremely difficult for me. I really have no interest in that friendship.
So imagine you also don't have any interest to rekindle the friendship. You simply don't care.
So everytime she wants to talk to me, I run away and hide somewhere. OGL says I suck at bravery. I just think I'm taking the most sensible option, plus Michael thinks it's funny.
4. Call them on their bullshit and tell them what they did was really fucked up so you can judge their reaction and see if they're truly contrite and willing to make amends, or if you're wasting your time talking to them.
I ditched an emotionally abusive friend after years of shitty behaviour from her and if she popped up tomorrow looking to rekindle things, I'd be like 'Your behaviour was shitty and unacceptable and made me unhappy and I am not interested in resuming a relationship but I wish you all the best' and then I'd peace on out and also the bit about wishing her the best would be a lie.
