How I Learned to Apologize Like an Adult (Sort Of)

Ever had one of those moments where you think you’re being hilarious, but your friend’s face says otherwise? Yeah, that was me last week with my buddy, Jamie. I cracked a joke about his new haircut—thought I was being clever, but it clearly stung. Instead of pretending nothing happened, I pulled Jamie aside after class. My heart was pounding, but I told him straight up, “I’m really sorry for making fun of your hair in front of everyone. That was out of line.” I made sure to own it, not just say, “Sorry you felt bad.” He needed space, so I wrote him a note later, promising not to cross that line again. I even offered to buy him lunch (bribery works, right?). I told him our friendship means a lot, and I’d do better. It was awkward, but real friends deserve real apologies. 😅 #Friendship #Apology #LifeLessons
