In need of an opinion

LegacyUser

At the beginning of the summer I was seeing the cousin of a friend of mine, things were going okay, muddling along, getting to know eachother etc, it wasn't at all fast paced or intense but it was nice until one night a misunderstanding led me to think it was over and I rebuked his attempt to get in contact a while later.

I've been thinking about it a lot since this and regret it completely, I now realise how stupid I was to think it was over and to get on his case when he tried to contact me, which he hasn't tried since in a month and rightly so, as I really over-reacted. But because it's been on my mind so much and I really regret through my own stupidity not giving it a chance, I want to try and contact him, may the odd Bebo comment or something as I probably wouldn't see him around due to the fact that he's my mate's cousin and not really from around here.

So really my question is, would this be completely fruitless and make me seem like a crazy person (which he probably thinks anyway) or would he actually accept it?

Maybe you could drop him a text or Bebo message just casually asking how he's been keeping. Test the waters and gauge his response (or lack thereof).

Do it, it isnt crazy and no-one really cares but you and him.

Just send him an email apologizing for your actions and you realize now you were in the wrong...

Nothing wrong with that, but i wouldn't leave a comment on his bebo page or anything.

Ive discovered a few things in life today

if you build up something in your mind it can make things worse, for instance expect something which you dont get.... I did today, this was wrong of me and fool hardy, I feel like a comlete tit and dont think i can rectefy the situation.... But ive learned a lesson from it.
Similer to yours... Drink was involved.

All I can say is do you a want to apolidgise for what happened or rectefy the situation, again this is your choice it could quite possibly be fruitles but then again it might not all i can say is from past experence's, things can go sour they can stay that way. But then again to others the glass might look more full to other's.

put it this way i know how you feel.....

Give it a shot. Just bear in mind that he will have formed an opinion that you can potentially over-react.

So don't take it personally if he says no.

But he might not.

And if you don't ask, then you'll be forever wondering.....

Best of luck!
