I want to openly apologize in front of everyone to TheDevilsJoy for being a total ass. I disrespected you. I failed utterly and completely as a friend. I pushed boundaries when I should have listened. I regret my actions. I lost someone that I care for deeply. I throw myself on your mercy to remain friends. Clean slate. No lies, no pressure.
 
Thanks but it hasn't helped.

At least you had the balls to come out and say that you fucked up. As to whether or not your apology is sufficient all depends on how badly you hurt or offended her and how angry and pissed off she is at you. Like Steve said, give it time.

Yes but patience is not my virtue lol. Its what got me in the mess in the first place. Working on that now.
 
Good luck...I’m a big believer in second chances. I hope you get yours. :rose::heart:

Sounds like with your patience remark that you expect forgive and forget.. It doesn't speak well of your apology, IMO. Is apologizing with expectation a true one?

Jus sayin...

My impatience is what caused my issue. My apology is sincere. I don't expect her to forget and I am working on being patient and trying to redeem myself. My hope is that she will forgive and we can remain friends.
 
I'd be pissed that you put my business out there for all of Lit to see.
If your friendship is private, and what happened was private, there's no need to bring others into it.

The way it looks right now, we don't know what you did to offend her, but you look like a humble little boy scout apologizing. At this point, if she doesn't accept it, she will be the one "looking bad and mean and unkind".

Eh... some things we just don't need to know about, ya know?

So you were impatient in getting what you want which caused the issue, and now you are apologizing in hopes of getting what you want.

I agree with bfg... posting it out on the board like this seems very manipulative.

As I stated, I pushed boundaries that I shouldn't have. I wouldn't accept answers for what they were and kept digging for more. I'm the one in the wrong. Several people knew of our issue. She is a very kind and loving woman, nothing mean or bad about her and if she doesn't forgive it's all on me. I'm the one who made the mistake. I own it.

No, I'm apologizing in hopes to remain friends.
 
You never know. You're a friend to me. I do hope things work for the best, but that depends on how deeply she was hurt. Some things are repairable, some thing need time and space. It takes a bit of time to forgive, sometimes the forgiveness may come but the relationship is different. Just be prepared for all possibilities.
 
This should have been kept private. It comes off as a vainglorious gesture. Apologize in PM, and if it doesn't work, it's not meant to be.
 
My attempt here was a sincere apology to one person while also showing her friends that I was being sincere in my remorse. This was not an attempt to make myself look good. I was wrong for what I did and I am willing to admit it and publicly humiliate myself at the same time.

At this point, let it go. Time and space, I'm in hopes, may fulfill the rest.
