I am a student of Class XI. I have four best friends. Recently, I fought with one of them, and now the other three are not talking to me. More than their silence what’s hurting me is the fact that they’re behaving as if I’ve committed a huge mistake. What should I do?
It is very sad when friends are not able to understand the cause of the fight. Friends form an important part of your life and when something goes wrong in those relationships, it will definitely disturb you. It is good that you want to take steps to resolve the issue. Before you get into it, reflect on what happened and how you feel about it. Ask yourself questions such as “What role did you play in this fight?”, “What do you want to your friend to do?” and “What could you have done differently?” Think rationally. Once you do this, you will be more prepared to resolve. And when you are ready.
- Reach out: Tell your friend you want to talk and work things out.
- Choose the right time: Pick a moment when both of you are ready to talk.
- Be open: Have an open discussion. Share your feelings. Use a mild tone and avoid harsh words.
- Apologise: Each of you can accept your mistakes and let go of what happened.
- Work together: See what you can do to mend the situation.
- Give it time: Be patient and give the situation and the other person time for change, and hope for the best.
