What advice would you give me?

Question

I was accused in the wrong recently. I could not apologise because I didn't do what I was accused of. Now the person, a week later is trying to befriend me. In the past I have always been forgiving but I do not need any aggro and the person is not a friend. Gosh I don't want to be rude.

Answer 1

you know..after so many years u start to realise that theres so many good uncomplicated people/things out there that these people that create drama just aint worth it! You know what i mean?...your life and time is  to valuable to 'second guess' yourself;) Benefit of the doubt can be good but geez it can open ur world up to so much more c**p! You have to work out  is that person important enough to take that gamble?

Answer 2

well , i suppose the person must be very sorry, trying to befriend you, but they should understand how you feel........if they are really apologising, well, its best to forgive them....

Answer 3

What if you just be kind to her by Saying Hello to her when she contacts you. And tell her your very busy if she wants to see you! That's a Hard one D! Good Luck!

Answer 4

This person sounds like the type who, will form an opinion and act upon it, without considering the implications of their actions. My advice is Stay Well Clear!

Answer 5

Well, for a start: you have right to annoyed by the situation that arose. I think the best thing to do is stay in contact but don't get too involved with the person. If the person does something similar again, don't give them another chance.  

Answer 6

cold shoulder comes to mind .

Answer 7

If they apologize with sincerity, accept if you want to, and let it go. If they just want to act like they want to be friends, with no apology or anything, just be polite, but dont get involved with this person. Life is too short, and what they did once, they will do again and again and again, if you let them. You dont even have to let them. Just watch and wait, and they will do it to someone else.

Answer 8

Just stay as sweet as you are! some people just don't appreciate their friends, let it ride over you, and don't descend to their level!

Answer 9

The false accusation has been properly identified as false,

by the very fact that the person is now trying to befriend

you, which means there motives were based on deception,

you owe no one an apology much less, an act of forgiveness.

your not being rude, merely excising caution to prevent a

recurrence of an unfortunate episode that should never have

happened in the first place, due to the unscrupulous nature

of the person you mention . . .
