re: Let's talk about losing friends

Sometimes, if one person is responsible for starting the conflict, the other person is just waiting for a sincere, heartfelt apology that demonstrates sufficient personal accountability before resetting the relationship. That rebuilds trust. But of course, a lot of people are delusional and/or flaky, unaccountable, prideful, toxic, they just don't care, etc. so you just move on.

Your true friends will almost always come back. Your passing friends fade into memory.
