Asshole and Bitch

Ever get *really* pissed of at somebody, but deep down you really like and care about them?  Sometimes misunderstandings lead to feuds that can last several years destroying friendships, marriages, work relationships, etc.  Look no farther than the Hatfield and McCoy's...  the Montegues and the Capulets...  I'm certain you can name at least one situation where communication has ceased due to hard feelings. You're muttering to yourself about that 'asshole'.  The other person is muttering about you being a 'bitch.'

Still, those emotions still linger and try as you might to push it down, you often think about the person/event that pissed you off and find yourself obsessed about where it all broke apart.  It's crazy making.  There is no time machine as of yet to go backwards and right all the wrongs. 

Life is short.  Contact that person.  The worst thing that can happen is that they hang up on you or shut the door in your face.  However, I give odds in your favor that just the opposite will happen and you will rekindle a relationship that was just choking in its own toxic smoke.  Chances are that person really was an asshole, and you really were a bitch.  Own it and get over it. 

Good Gawd...  I sound like somebody in the 7 step AA program going around asking everybody I've ever pissed off for forgiveness... Well, it is Thursday night and I was invited to celebrate recovery  LOL    Well, if the shoe fits.....and the bottle is empty....why the hell not.
