Have you ever put your foot in your mouth? I mean so bad that you just wanted to crawl in a hole and die? Because I did. Just today. I carelessly, stupidly, unintentionally but carelessly none-the-less put my foot in my mouth and through poor judgement-making hurt someone's feelings. Someone I really care about and I just feel sick about it. Sure, sure...I tried to recover and have even spoken with the person/people involved to clear the air, but I don't feel any better. You can't take it back, because it's already out there. Said and done and nothing you can say can truly fix it. UGH. Here you are just walking around thinking you're a pretty nice person until one day you you open your mouth without thinking and turn into what feels like a monster. The worst part is what if I've done this before? This can't be the first time, can it? I'm sure I've haphazardly done this before and just never found out? I can't stand the thought. As if you can't tell, it's kind of all-consuming at this moment and I just needed to vent. I hope that most of you reading this KNOW I love and appreciate you and that if I've ever offended you, it wasn't on purpose.

I hate that feeling. I said something a few months ago and it still makes me cringe when I think about it ... even though the person has told me many times that they didn't even care and had forgotten about it (until I brought it up again).
Of course, you are one of the nicest people I know. I'm sure your friend knows that, too!
Don't worry about it, we've all been there, done that. At least you've already talked to the person and I'm sure they're ok. I know how you feel though, it does kind of consume you sometimes. Try to enjoy the day.
My feelings are still hurt.jk.
Diddo. I do this too, so if I have ever to you. I am sorry. Love you.
