Humility tames the Ego

I recently had a misundertanding with someone and he stopped communicating with me. I wondered perhaps coz sometimes i am pretty tactless when i said something which he took negatively.

Okey, i texted him twice and no response till i emailed him and said "SORRY". SORRY is just a 5-letter word but it is more powerful than saying your lots of excuses or explanations.

We are back to normal as friends as nothing happened.cheers cheers

agree with you virgo.. its better to show all of you.. the good and the bad sides.. Its the only way to find out if someone truly likes you.. not to mention loves you.

VIRGO : I am not into him as a matter of fact. And it was not i was wrong. it was just i don't want other people having bad impression of me. I was just being me and there are times we are meeting sensitive people and misunderstand your statement.

I just feel sorry for him for having such attitude.

sometimes a person needs more time to come to reason again.. maybe when you've send the first apologies he wasn't ready yet to accept them.
I have had many occasions in my life where i have been in misunderstanding and even real arguements.. In those cases it works best if they just state their opinion and then leave me alone. That way i can think and come to reason. And if needed i will apologise.. if not needed i will demand apologies.. But if they just keep nagging me to keep listening to their ramblings.. That would most likely just feed my anger. It all depends on someones personality.

be careful though cause after a while, even "sorry" won't have the same impact if the other person is repeatedly tactless. but good to know it worked this time! cheering

HIKE : Being tactless does not mean you mean hurting others. It's just being straight forward in subtle way coz i know if i react harshly it's being unreasonable. It's just how others misenterpret your message.

Hi pippa!

Yes it does. Check the "one word dictionary" definition for tactless! It's on the 'net.

Pippa: True I can see your point.. however since it turned out where u had to say sorry to him, this tells me that obviously the result of your tactless behavior needed an apology in order for him to be friends with you again.. all i am saying is maybe it is better to learn from a challenging situation, and see how u can improve your communication skills.. you can still be assertive and upfront, but in a more tactful way, if u choose.
