[Private, unhackable]
One of these days, I'll learn to stop saying and doing things I'll regret. Perhaps I'm too focused on my goals for my own good.

...On the other hand, perhaps I just need to be more selective about the kind of company I keep.

I don't want to lose him. As a friend, that is.

I wouldn't say anything unless I was sure it was the truth. Even a slight possibility that it might be a lie is too much - it would only cause pain in the end.

But...I've regretted not saying something because of that cautiousness. Maybe you don't have anything to regret, really.

Regardless of how true it is, it's already been said. And has already caused pain, for that matter.

I do wish it was that simple.

Then what do you expect to do about it? If nothing can be done, then wallowing in regret is just a waste of time. You'd be better off trying to get over it as quickly as possible.

"Get over it"? Do you mean to say that I shouldn't try to mend the problem?

I have no regrets about anything.

But why regret something that could be true, if you thought before that it wasn't? I imagine it would be a relief.

That's quite enviable.

The problem is that I'm no longer sure that I wish it to be true. ...I apologize; I'm probably being too ambiguous for you to be of any help.

That's not to say I've never done anything I shouldn't have. But now I won't do it again. If you learn from your mistakes, you shouldn't regret them.

You are. Care to elaborate?

I hope someday I'll be able to say the same thing. Look back at this and laugh, as they say.

Mmm, well. A friend of mine overheard something negative I said about him, and he seems to have disowned me. My first instinct is to apologize, but maybe it's better this way.

Having a problem?

Well, yes. An internal debate, of sorts.

Care to enlighten me?

To put things simply, I said something cruel to a friend. I meant to apologize but I'm unsure if it's true or not.
