    Sorry
    Hey guys, sorry I'm posting this, I really shouldn't =/
    I've recently had a falling out with of my mates.
    I was trashed last night whern I drunkenly shouted at her and she's not talking to me, save some texts of slagging which I've replied to, and it isn't that brilliant. Today she's called me everything from a waste of space to everything else. It's also important that I called her a **** last night and stood by it this morning, because quite frankly she's treated me a like a peice of **** these last few weeks and I want my voice heard.

    Her mum also had a go at me, but to be fair she hasn't been around her daughter in the last few weeks; And I don't blame her, all her daughter has done is blame everything on me (which I've to defend )and be a complete tool, guess it is what it is. Anyone got a scrape of advice at all on how to handle this situation?

    Grovel like you've never groveled before if you want to be friends again.
    It doesn't matter if you think you're right - if her eyes you're wrong, so suck it up and take all the flak that's coming your way.

    Re: Sorry
    Stand by your guns, i know i would. I'm too stubborn and not a caring person, then again this is ill advice so ignore me

    But by now, that girl is probably gobbing off to her friends making the situation bad, i'd suggest staying away from any social networks, if your on them.

    You will need to bend over, pull down your trousers and take the hurt, and hopefully it will calm down.

    This, she is a women and therefore you're automatically wrong and took things way too far. If you didn't want to remain friends with her then you wouldn't be making this post. If she really is bad then why not just move on?

    Also adding to what ProfessorPester said, she will bitch about you like there is no tommorrow if you don't correct things.

    Give them some time to cool off, seriously. I've had almost exactly this situation before, constantly grovelling and apologising gets you nowhere when they're still in the 'fury' stage (reference to sims 2 there )

    Unfortunately this.

    This woman is experiencing the rage of a thousand periods, you will need to beg for mercy.

    This is good advice too. Don't grovel too soon, let there be a cool-off period. Let dust settle and let the chips fall where they may. Once that's over, set the grovel level to max

    You're one of very few, I've received swathes of hate mail and negative rep for the colour of my text!

    Aye, and there seems to be a positive correlation between the amount of hate and the repping power displayed.

    All in all I find it very amusing despite the fact that after almost 500 posts I'd have at least four green gems by now otherwise.

    If that is going to stay as your signature, post all the time.

    OP, you need to assess what matters more, standing your ground on this one issue, or keeping your friend.

    For the meantime it will remain as Hayden Panettiere. However I was thinking of changing it to the mighty terriers badge once the season kicks off, what do you think?

    OHHH THIS IS TENSE. Leeds fan here

    Please treat Simon Grayson well. I know he's Leeds and that, but most of us still bloody love him. One of the best British managers in the country right now, you're very lucky to have him!

    He seems very commited and determined to achieve success at town, despite his clear flaw of being a Leeds fan through and through :P

    Made some great signings aswell, think we may be close to finding a team that works extremely well together, just hope he can bring in another striker to complement Jordan Rhodes, and a new center back would be swell, once we find them role on next season! We will be ready to cause a few upsets.

    Clayton will prove to be a great signing - As will Lynch, bargain of the summer there IMO!

    Can't say i've ever 'liked' Hudders, though never hated them either. Really wish you well for the season though, I hold Grayson in the highest regard and really hope you do well under him!
