I Have Done Things I Am Not Proud of

I don't know why I end up hurting people by being a jerk. Lately, I have been hurting people by being too honest and also I fear if I lie, God will not forgive me.

Anyway, today I am depressed about this incident that happened today. My cousin is pregnant and I know that one should not give any bad news to a pregnant lady. Today I forwarded a whatsapp msg to her. The msg is basically about a new born baby who is facing health problems and hence more we circulate the msg, more money can be accumulated for the baby's treatment.

Generally, i don't do it but it was a baby and it seemed real to me and without thinking I started forwarding it to everyone in my whatsapp list and accidentally msgd her without thinking and now I am feeling depressed about it. Why do I keep doing things without thinking sometimes?

sounds like you just wanted to take the happines out of her pregnancy ... guess some people are like that :-)

If you feel bullied, block me. I assure you, I saw only one person doing any bullying and that is you. You decided he was a bad person and made some really inappropriate comments.

And that's the end. We're done.

@Serenitree: great justification of your victim blaming ... anyway i know what u saw, and then u saw that u were wrong and apologized, and then you retracted your apology. it seems to be you that is the (whimsical) judge who decides (and redecides, and redecides) who is good and who is bad? :-) you should be on the supreme court - you would have the nations heads spinning in no time ...

Thank you guys for your honest feedback. Yes, it was not at all intentional. May be she is not even thinking about it, I may be over thinking but I don't like to make people sad or depressed because of my any silly mistakes even though it is not intentional.

Anyway, just to lighten up her mood and to make myself feel less guilty, I just now tagged her along with some of my friends (just to avoid making it look obvious) and relatives on a post about a cute funny baby video on Facebook. Hope that brings a smile on her face. (If incase my whatsapp msg made her felt sad). Thanks @Serenitree.

@newbie: he didn't send this to her. I sent this to him.

why on earth would u do that?

A better question is,,why not?

If you really were just sending it out to everyone and sending it to her was unintentional, stop beating yourself up over it.

If there was even the least bit of intent to hurt her, then you need to think about whether or not to apologize. If she didn't think it was intentional, you could be hurting her by telling her it was.
It's not so bad that you forwarded it to your cousin. I am appalled that you forwarded it at all. Most of that is a scam of sorts. So be depressed that you are gullible but not that you forwarded a stupid message

It was an honest mistake, you have nothing to worry about. It wasn't your fault
