One of my friends just doesn't know when to back off - in fact he fuels the fire more - thinking it's funny. Many times he is funny but I don't think he's self aware enough to know when he's fueling a fire. It gets too bad and then there is a rift. Need to talk with him. I don't know if he'll hear me.

I find often that sending someone an email often works better than in person. You can make sure you word what you are saying just right, read, then re-read things before you send them. And you could have a friend or your therapist look over the note before you send it to make sure you are making your point without upsetting the other person.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
