quote:
ORIGINAL: Stephann And sometimes when you fuck up, you don't get a second chance to do it again. Hurt me once, shame on you. Hurt me twice, shame on me. Frankly, if "I'm sorry" isn't enough, then it's not enough. Nobody owes me their friendship, and I'm unlikely to ever owe anyone mine. If it can't be shared openly and honestly, it shouldn't be. Stephan My point exactly. Just don't repeat the same mistake with someone else. I can forgive a lot of things. But there are some things, regardless of how trival they may be to others, where you just don't get a second chance. I stutter. A sales rep makes fun of it, I tell their manager why I won't shop there anymore. I've done it before and I don't accept an apology. My family won't leave tips for waitresses who giggle when my Father and I try to place our orders. When my Father was in the Army, a superior officer urged him to accept the apology of a woman who had laughed at his stutter. My Father just said "Sorry, sir. Some things you don't get a second chance at."
