Dear Editor:
I quarreled with a friend but I knew deep down that it was my fault. So I tried to talk to him, but he paid no attention to me. Maybe I hurt him too much. I tried talking to him again and he did the same thing. Is our friendship over?

Dear Gao Yang,
I think it is too early to say whether or not your friendship is over. I don’t know what you said to your friend, but if he does not want to talk to you, I think you must have upset him a great deal. You need to give him more time to forgive you. People often say things they don’t mean but a few words in anger do not last for ever.
At least you have tried to say you are sorry. Even though he doesn’t want to talk yet, your friend knows that you want to make up. And if he is a true friend, he will realize that friendship is more importasnt than being angry. Of course, maybe he doesn’t want to talk to you again. This means he doesn’t value your friendship very highly. If so, have you lost anything worth worrying about?
