Re: [a while after all that]
Well, you looked like it.
Apologies are fine. Saying I'm sorry when ya feel bad, even when the person doesn't get the big deal, is fine. Because it just means you're sure you don't like what you did, so saying 'I'm sorry' is always okay.
Just don't go overboard on the guilt when it's not deserved.
But I won't hate you for a little thing like a hit. I've been hurt a lot worse by over half of my family, even if they had no control over it. So don't think I would because of it.
