no one calls
Despite my saying I would not contact C again, I did. I phoned her as I walked up to Tesco to do my food shopping.
[I edited out a tedious I said this and she said that paragraph. Be very pleased I edited it out because it went on for a tedious several tedious hundred tedious words.]
She didn't engage. And, oddly, she spoke a very thick Australian accent - which I'd never heard before.

I must have missed something. Why would you not contact C again? And, I guess, why did you?
This is the why not. As for the Why? - well I guess I was wanting to... well I can't really tell you why, without telling you the ins and outs of how she broke my trust. I don't think that would be fair to her.
Also, I did do something 'wrong'. However I've been doing that 'wrong' thing for 6 months, with her encouragement. Now, however, she has changed the rules, not told me, and consequently that 'wrong' thing is now a Wrong thing.
I don't mind rules being changed. But I'd like to be told before I do something to contravene these new rules... and not instead be chastised afterwards.
That sounds like I am blaming her. I am not. I acknowledge my part in it (as I said above)... I did a wrong thing... BUT she'd said it was fine in the past, and suddenly it was no longer fine. All she had to do was tell me so.
Oh dear. I was away when that happened.
I hope you can both start rebuilding your friendship, if it's what you both want.
That's kind of you to say. But I'm pretty unforgiving once I've been transgressed. Up until The Brother Incident I'd forgive just about anything. But since then Ive had an epiphany... and that was: What someone does to you once they will always do again. There are no one-offs.
We've had our time. I have no regrets.
Harsh. But your choice. And without knowing what she did there's not much more I can say.
