I Know True Friendship Is Priceless

I don’t normally post on here, but totay I let a true friend down. A girl who I met on SW back in August last year. We’ve been through highs and lows, and over the months I’ve really got to know her well. Built up trust and even love, but somehow after all this time, one completely innocent comment that I took the wrrong way, for no other reason than I’d had too much to drink, has now damaged and risked a friendship that I value above anything else.

Biggest mistake of my life, so I’m sharing this to all of you who have someone special, whether on here or in your everyday life, and to just remind that good friendships are rare and very precious. If you love someone, please don’t do what I did, and appreciate every special moment.
A very big problem with electronic communications. A typed statement can look bad when not accompanied by facial expression, voice tone and body language. Add alcohol and you've got a misunderstanding looking for some place to happen.

About all you can do is grovel and hope it works.

Both of you completely right. The way I reacted was totally unacceptable. No excuses. This girl has been a great friend and I’m pretty ashamed to be honest.

@MaryJo1996 Happy sigh.
I have believed for some time that a keyboard fitted with a breathalyzer would prevent a lot of such situations.
@MaryJo1996 Are you the lady in question?

@Mamapolo2016 There's an app you can get to block certain functions on your phone for a period of time. It's great for when your drunk.
@FCNantes I stopped drinking...because I couldn't stop drinking. That doesn't mean I don't want others to save their relationships. 🤗

This is lovely! I agree true friends are hard to find so when you do you should never let them down.

@Peterhorn It was over a year ago, it's not relevant.
