Finally a reply I like, Ha0 -
Honestly, I really think he's done you a favour. I can't stand dramatic men and I think you're well out of it before you started to develop really strong feelings for him.
By the way, I can understand why he was a bit put out (as I would be, for maybe a day at most) but he's got it all out of perspective. I wouldn't want to be lumbered with a bloke who a) didn't forgive and forget and b) got all OTT over a small mistake.
Move on and don't give it another thought is my advice!0 -
I too have a male Best Friend. We have fallen out a few times and it's devastating. We are so close and tell each other everything. We know all each other's secrets.
The trouble with this kind of friendship is that it often ends when one party gets seriously involved / married....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
Alot of you think deserves me right. But everyone else i have confided in, friends wise, believe he's being a drama queen.
So he's a drama queen and a !!!!!! then. Move on.Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.0 -

Yeah true. I just thought alot of the replies were not harsh but made me feel like I let out a horrible secret or something.
I think I'm just finding it hard to comprehend that our friendship maybe is over because of this or else I would have thought twice when I confirmed why he left.
My mind is all over the place. I'm just feeling hurt.0 -

I was beginning to think it might have involved some discussion on his relationship with you.0
