I think I lost a long time friend because we were playing video games late at night and he got all heated and wall-of-text-y because I went to use the bathroom while I was waiting for a respawn in a pointless game. I can't for the life of me, no matter what therapist I talk to, what books on interpersonal relations and human psychology I read, figure out why its so damn impossible for two adults to look at each other with a straight face and say in turn to each other 'I acted inappropriately, I am sorry if my words or actions caused you harm, I did not intend to. Please forgive me.' I guess it's just time to embrace open sociopathy and just tell people what they want to hear 100% of the time and stop giving anyone respect as a peer or even as a sentient creature unless demonstrated otherwise.
