I said "well to awesome" because we had only one, but she handled it perfectly I thought. She did not contact me after, but when I did call her to apologize for my part in it, she owned her part and apologized for pushing me, and when I said I knew I had destroyed our relationship, she said very graciously "You didn't destroy it. It's damaged, but like any relationship, it can be repaired." And that's what we did. That was over 2 years ago now. I don't even remember exactly when it happened anymore. But I've never forgotten how terrible I felt those 3 days before I called her to apologize, and how gracious she was in accepting my apology and offering one of her own and working through it with me. eta: and oh yeah I forgot to add that she also thanked me for being brave enough to call her and apologize.
