“i am not near the phone, always. i have other things to do, as well.”
" i would have called you, after i have taken care of the things i had to take care of."
ideally it should not cause any embitterment between two people. especially, if it is said in a firm but polite manner, in which it may have been said.
but, in some cases, it might cause disappointment or a bit of a shook up of positive feelings.
how should the persons involved handle this, first the one whom it was said to?
any non blaming ( to the sayer), constructive thoughts?
it all depends who its comin from and in what circumstances,
i mean if it was said between friends when there was no serious problems that i wont matter but if this is said between 2 ppl who just know each other this can lead to a lot of problem.
i agree, knowing each other for some time, helps. that is what teen agers and young adults should know.
in that case i would say if you are at the recieving end and u seriously respect ur friendship don be upset bout it but do point out that it wasnt the best of things a friend could say.
