I Hurt Someone's Feelings
I am writing this blog post because I have hurt someone's feelings in a very significant way. At this point I wish to keep the details ambiguous because the person I hurt has not said whether he/she would want me to give a detailed apology.
What I did, is repeatedly do something to this person that I did not realize would casue him/her stress and hurt. What I did was not a good thing to do, but I did not realize it would cause so many problems. For these actions, I am truly sorry, and I sincerely apologize to that individual.
Unfortunately, before I knew I was hurting this individual, I also did something more. This additional action I took was meant to show that *I* had felt hurt by this individual, but it backfired in that it hurt the person further. My action was meant to show to the person, in a sarcastic manner, that I felt hurt. My action did not succeed in doing this, but instead was only hurtful to the person.
I am not proud of my actions. On the contrary, I am ashamed that I did these things. My initial actions were not done to purposefully hurt this individual, but that is not an excuse. They did hurt this individual, and I regret having done them. I also regret the "sarcastic" action I took as well. It was not appropriate, and again, I am sorry.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
My first thought when I read this entry was I can't imagine you ever purposefully hurting someone....................my second thought was I bet he's talking about another blogger who, in my opinion, has spent his life perfecting the art of manipulating people to get what he wants for nothing.
ReplyDeleteMy 3rd thought was I should shut up because I don't have a clue what happened.......so now I'll shut up!
So you hurt someones feelings, big fucking deal, maybe it's them and not you so get the fuck over it.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you don't need them for a friend, just how much time do you have for friends anyway?
We lose friends all the time, there's always new ones in the future, we're always moving forward, not much point in getting worked up about what is behind us.
Hey, it's just a bunch of fucked up monkeys, don't get too worked up about it.
