Sorry to hear that! Well, you apologized, so he'll probably be assuaged after he has a little time to fume. Prayers going up on it.
thanks ... isnt that a rather basic human urge though : if you can insult someone and they dont catch on, then we think ourselves pretty clever? I guess I am of the mindset that if I want a person to know what I think of them, I will tell them, if not then I will keep my damn mouth shut because I dont want to hurt or have to explain myself? I tried to tell him thats what I was really reacting to, but he's thinking I am telling him not to write the book. And he got me good by pointing out that I had no problem with someone else doing the same thing on someone Im not terribly fond of.
Thing is, I don't particularly care to conceal my feelings about this person. If she finds out I would be willing to trash her, I'd at least be happy with the knowledge that the truth is out there.
I guess I hate subterfuge.
