*rather wearily* Are you really sorry, Oracle, or do you just not want to deal with my unhappiness on those rare, rare occasions we run into each other anymore? To make it completely blunt and simple, are you sorry you hurt me, or are you sorry you have to deal with my being hurt?
I hope you'll excuse my skepticism, but your question a while back on Sages about not being sorry for things you did, but for what resulted, and that nice little confrontation between Miko and Ginger, did not fill me with boundless optimism.
I don't LIKE this whole 'practically enemies' thing. I don't LIKE that one of the reasons I had to take you off my flist was simply because I felt a little sick every time I saw one of your posts. Every time I was reminded of you, and the nasty, vicious things you said to me. And I REALLY don't like the fact that I can't be sure if you've really realized that what you said was both wrong and cruel, or if you just don't want to suffer knowing that oh my god, someone doesn't LIKE you!
So tell me the truth. Which is it? Either way, I won't go biting your head off, either way, at least you DID apologize, but I want the truth.
I am sorry I hurt you. The question about not being sorry about things I did wasn't about you- I meant it in a general way, and I've made more mistakes than the ones you know about.
I don't believe that what I said was entirely wrong (some of it was, some of it wasn't), but it was unnecessarily mean, and I'm sorry for it. I don't like hurting people, although your impression of me probably points to the contrary.
I admit that I hate dealing with your unhappiness when we run into each other, or when my name is publicly mentioned, and I'd like to get rid of that, but that isn't my only reason for apologizing.
As for Ginger, she's out of my control again, and her words and actions aren't in any way mine.
Very much to the contrary. In point of fact, you did such a good job of establishing yourself as a selfish little bitch that I nearly gagged every time someone made much of what a nice girl they thought you were.
And if one of the things you don't think was wrong is that crap about your mental problems being all my fault, you can just leave now. Because that is one of the most childish fucking things I've ever heard, and I'm really not interested in hearing from you if you haven't grown up at least a little. The apology eases the rampant antagonism. It doesn't get you a Get-Out-Of-Dutch-Free card.
I'm not too hot on dealing with my unhappiness either. I've had enough problems to deal with the past few months without having more crap piled on me. I am approaching this whole thing with a LOT of caution because I'm FINALLY starting to get things back in order, and the last thing I need is a new load of drama, wangst, and trouble.
And as for Ginger, that's a change from the way it's been ever since the little pissing contest that started all this. But fine, if you want to claim she's her own person again, I will, for the moment, believe you, and save my anger at her FOR her.
Good. That was the single solitary thing you said that upset and pissed me off the most. I'm glad you seem to have gained at least enough maturity to drop that one.

I'm not trying to cause drama, wangst, and trouble.
