: Quick, Quick - I need some advice. I pissed an eight friend off. I was told not to do something and then I did it anyway and then had to tell him about it, because he'd find out in a week or so anyway. The "thing" in question isn't likely to do any harm but he's mad because he TOLD me not to. Is this friendship irrepairably damaged? Will he speak to me again? (He's hung up three times when I tried to call). I'll die if this is over! Help please if you can. (we argued once before over the same thing happening). We've been friends for four years.

Lighten up! Give the anger time to diffuse, then confront them on how you're sorry and if they can't accept that then they're a jerk. They'll respect you for the upfrontness. Just be willing to bear the brunt of their anger being dispersed on you and stand up to it. They'll respect you for that. --Dave
