For me, that was the first sign that this was not going to go anywhere positive.
It was a sign that even though I did not think she deserved it, in a sense, it felt like he wanted to.
After all the feelings and emotions he went through because of the break-up, a part of him still wanted to forgive her.
He also told me that he sensed the feeling that she missed me - as a friend and as one of the girls she could turn to. He asked me to initiate the contact with her and I told him that I wasn't sure if I could but that I'd think about it.
Not wanting to drag this conversation out any further, for fear of where it might lead and what things might have come out of our thoughts if we continued, I said goodnight and logged off.
The next morning and for a few days after that conversation, I kept thinking about my conversation with him and each time, I came back with the same conclusion / question. A question that I want to say to him but I don't know if I can... that question being:
'How can you forgive someone who treated you like shit?'
This question just doesn't apply to him and the way he treated her but to all relationships and friendships. Do people really deserve a second chance if they did you wrong?
I applied it to a friendship I had that was recently "broken" [with a girl at work] and for me, I just don't think I could do it. Forgive them, I mean.
Needless to say, at this point, I don't think I'll be picking up the phone to send a text message - to either girl.
Peace,
