Do you ever feel bad for the way you've treated someone?

[Anonymous]

Example during a breakup, if you treated them badly and said or did things they didn't deserve, such as ghosting? And if so, did you ever do anything about it? Apologize later or anything?

Yes, sometimes, and I apologized later and explained myself.

Yes, sometimes, but never apologized or anything.

No, never have.

Other (comment), results.

Sometimes, yes. When that happens I always reach out to apologize. We're human and no one is perfect so of course there are times I make mistakes, lose my temper, and say things I don't really mean. The important thing is to realize when you've hurt someone unnecessarily and to take the appropriate actions to make amends.

At the end of the day, I don't want to be remembered as a cold person who doesn't care about the feelings of other people. That's why I try to make a conscious effort to not be hateful or hurt others by my actions and when I do hurt someone who doesn't deserve it, to hold myself accountable for that.

I will make the distinction though, that this doesn't mean I won't stand up for myself when I need to. If someone is mistreating me or others, I will stand up for what's right.

If you lose your temper
You need to grow up

[xHoneyxBeex]

@AlbanianYoungLady Getting angry is a natural human emotion. People get mad all the time and say things that may be rude and hurt other people's feelings. That's what I mean by "lose your temper." If you never get mad then congratulations, you've reached perfection.

[AlbanianYoungLady]

I'm not perfect
But at least peaceful person

[xHoneyxBeex]

@AlbanianYoungLady Who said I wasn't peaceful? Someone losing their temper doesn't always mean they act violent. It may just mean they say things that could be hurtful. Most of the time when I get angry, I just ignore that person but every now and then I may say something rude, which I later apologize for. Clearly you're misunderstanding my use of the phrase "lose your temper."

[AlbanianYoungLady]

I didn't
Anyway
4 people have lost my friendship just because of this

[xHoneyxBeex]

@AlbanianYoungLady Okay? Cool. You have the right to select your friendships based on any criteria you choose.

I usually ghost my friends with benefits when they get boring and I don't wanna see them anymore 😅 I know it's kinda shitty but it's just easier and I think perhaps less hurtful than telling them I don't wanna see them anymore because they're boring straight up...

[Asker]

No, it hurts more! At least for me. This was me and that's exactly what she did. But I would've FAR rather heard the truth! At least I'd have a reason and closure. It would've hurt A LOT LESS!!!

[passinby]

Yeah there are a few. There is one that she was hot on me, we went at it a few nights and I just never felt the same; she really is someone that I consider a good friend. Saw her at the airport and she comes all the way over to the gate I was at to give me a bear hug. She is good looking and all that but for some unknown reason she doesn't light my fire. I love to bs and talk to her a lot but something keeps me cold to go any further.

I don't think I have ever been nasty ugly angry pissed with ex-s and ever said anything terrible. Mostly it has been just going our different ways.

[Aenetoo]

There was a girl at work who just would not shut up. Just talking, talking, talking nonstop. Eventually drove me nuts.
One day, she came in with a bad sunburn. And started babbling relentlessly. I said, I bet I can make you stop talking. She said, I bet you can't. So I slapped her on the back. And she walked away, crying. I felt sooo bad. I walked up to her and told her I didn't mean to make her cry. She said, "It's just you've never hit anyone before." I said I'm sorry and gave her a hug. I still feel bad when I think about it.

[Fitness-Fanatic]

I don't feel bad or guilty for ghosting people, because i only ghost manipulative or insincere people. Or anyone who talks shit behind my back

I have been mean to people and felt guilty afterwards , so i've apologized because i've realized i was in the wrong.

However , I have been mean to some people and not felt guilt at all. So it really depends on the circumstance of the situation

[andreasderjuengere]

There was one where I think that I was unfair. Could not apologize because insight came way too late, but if one day I meet him (which will not happen), I will. The others deserved it. But most of my time I manage to live in tolerant harmony with others. Unless my loud neighbor keeps waking me up at just before 6. a. m. - especially on Sundays.

[happyhippo]

I feel very bad for a lot of stuff I have done to people. None of it is in the recent years, but most is from when I was a child and it's stupid, cause I know how things influence children and I think I might've played a big role in the decision of people to go on the bad road.

[Vesuvius87]

It really depends on the reason why. Nowadays, I carefully think about what I'm saying and don't just bash someone for no reason.

If you really did something shitty, chances are you're not getting an apology.

[Drener]

Yes I feel bad how I treated people
And I hate it when people ghost me
Yes we should all apologized

[kiraith]

yeah, I always like to treat nice but im Cancerian so my mood changes any sec by what happening & sometimes snap back when not really mean it

[Anonymous]

I am ghosting my boyfriend at the moment. it has been 3-4 ays now... i dont know what to do...
i do feel bad. :(

[notyouraverageadult]

I say sorry because I really mean it. I will mean it because I'm not that cruel. I don't want bad things to happen to people. However, if I think and feel like they deserve it, then it could be because of karma.

[BigRob420]

I treat people the way they treat me. Why would I regret that?

[DirtyBabes111]

Everyone had regrets and mistakes and a past that what makes us human

[DeaconPope]

Never apologized but have been trying to track her down off and on for years to apologize

[CoffeeWC]

I feel bad sometimes, but never had the guts too apologize.

[Rubified94]

Yes & I apologize afterwards.

[Skullpool]

Thinking about it, I should apologize.. thank you

[rachelle_13333]

[stormbreaker06]
