A few days ago, I "caught" him and talked to him!

I expressed to him in all honesty everything I felt! I was relieved, since a huge weight was "gone" from me! Our relations were restored, as the misunderstanding between us was resolved! I didn't expect it to be so simple! Of course, between us, simple things are not always easy, because if it were like that, everyone would do it!
'Have the difficult conversation!' I told myself.
But before I started talking to him, I did the following:
- I left some time to think!
- I reflected on what happened between us and why this disagreement was caused!
- I recorded the incident in detail in my journal and wrote down the reasons why we fought!
- I wrote in my diary in detail all my feelings!
- I distanced myself a bit in an attempt to see the events as an outside observer and evaluate them more correctly!

What else did I have to do?
- I realized the mistakes I made in managing the relationship between us and recorded them in detail to get a holistic picture of the situation!
- I wrote down the reasons why I handled the particular issue in the particular way and considered whether the attitude I displayed was a pattern in my life or was spontaneous!
- I caught the mistakes my friend made and wrote them in my journal!
- I discussed the issue with my family and they gave me their opinion on how they would handle it themselves!
- I thoroughly considered whether it is worth having this person in my life or whether I need to move away for good, with the only criterion being the long-term benefit and not the temporary pleasure!
- I took out my notebook and wrote down the arguments I would give him in the debate! I structured them in a structured and sequential way so that they are clear and understandable on the other side!
Have the tough conversation and don't be afraid! Show respect to the other person and talk honestly about your feelings! You will be redeemed! Even if what you say to him is not understood, you will at least know where to go! You will reevaluate the situation and redefine your criteria for entering into a relationship! You will come out victorious after all!
Have the difficult conversation!
