I’ve hurt someone I’m not venting exactly

[Icare1234]

I know I’ve hurt someone by not staying contact and now getting in contact. Conversation was abrupt - quite rightly. I don’t know whether to leave it or try again. It’s appears and partly correct that I’m only contacting because I now have time. It was also because I know the person will be more isolated because they are in vulnerable group. I have no excuse. Have you ever done that and it work out? I think I might send a card.

if this is the case then your first move is to apologise and really mean it and then build bridges and keep your promises. Be prepared for some snippy comments until the person can trust you again.

Fair enough. I’m going to send a card, rather than just a text.
