Yesterday, one of our neighbours came over to speak to me - she wanted to apologise if she was “rude to my friend.”
The friend in question isn’t my friend, she’s my partner’s ex wife, and the neighbour wasn’t rude - she was blocking her drive to asked her to move.
I thanked her for coming over but said there was no need to apologise because she wasn’t rude at all, so please not to worry.
Today. She’s brought us a bag of plums off her tree. Never done that before, so we’re assuming it’s linked to the totally unnecessary apology.
Will fruit keep arriving until she’s forgiven herself for something she didn’t do? Are we supposed to return the favour - because I don’t have any fruit growing?
Help me understand the etiquette and next steps 😂.
