Roughly five years ago I was looking to contact a friend I knew from college. Long story short I didn’t go about it the right way and her parents got mad at me.

Fast forward five years and I feel incredibly remorseful about what I did. I’ve been told I should just forget about the whole ordeal, but the whole situation lives rent-free in my head no matter how hard I try not to think about it. I don’t want to risk disturbing her again, but I also don’t want to pull a Matthew Broderick and never apologize/admit responsibility for a grave mistake. Any thoughts?

    Again, I’ve tried hard to but I’m not getting anywhere. If it was that easy I wouldn’t post this. Read the entire description before jumping to assumptions.

      I did read everything in your thread before I commented. I still say, move on. Let it go.

      The letter writing suggestion isn’t a bad one, but I wouldn’t send it. Just write it and then burn it, and let that act of fire be the end of it. I know it’s not easy, but it’s the best answer you’re going to get.
