Today at work one of the guys I went to middle school with actually apologized for the way everyone treated me then. He comes in every day or so.

cool! doesn't change what happened, but an apology is far better than nothing.

does it make you feel any better about what happened, merll2005? (i'm assuming it was negative for you, as i can't see anyone apologising for being nice).

Meril:

I know you were part of this forum, then you left, and then you came back with a different name.

I think it was nice of him to apologize, but I also thought you should have been the one who should have apologized. In my opinion, you should have spoken for yourself when you did that. You were the one who wanted to be treated like you were treated. I would have thought you were the one who had made such mistakes because those mistakes were common in people like us. How he could have possibly apologized for the way your other co-workers treated you is beyond me.

I don't mean to put you down, but I just wanted to express my honest opinion. I want to admit that I know this fault of yours, and personally, this is a good thing. For this reason, we can use this forum how it is meant to be used, as a coping tool for people like us.

He appologized for the way I was treated in middle school. I am treated well by my co-workers and the management. The guy who apologized was a customer. I am still angry at the admistration of my old public school So i try to spin what happen to put it in a light that is not all negative. The reason I left the site was because I didn't have the time to come here and stay current and by the time I decided to come back I had forgoten my password and user name.

Oh. Were you too nervous to take an apology upon yourself?
