Admitting when you're wrong

[kupo]

if im wrong i'll admit i am. theres not use getting into an argument about it; the world isn't going to end if i confess that i made a mistake. sure, there are some situations where it would be hard to admit your wrong but in everyday, common use, its really silly not too. were all human and make mistakes - lets just be honest when such circumstance arrives and not be too stubborn about it

I found out that my friends visited just yesterday on Facebook when I saw an update from them saying that they stopped caring about us. I asked my best friend about it and she said what I basically told all of you. I decided to check how recent their break was and discovered that all three of them made updates 5 or 6 days ago to say they have returned.

Most recent update was on the 22nd.

Ohhhh...crap.

Considering how we are really good friends with these guys, I figured that a majority of us would notice, jump right on it, and pass on the word. Apparently, it was just the opposite. I'm not sure what the case is with my other friends, but I genuinely didn't know of their visit until yesterday.

For all I know, I could have missed it among the sea of updates on the news feed.

In my original post I mentioned that one of them gave us their perspective on how horrible their college is, how much they hated it, and how disappointed they are. They came back because they missed the way things were when we were in high school. After that, that's when I apologized. Sure I felt bad, but what do they want me to do about their situation? While I understood and felt sorry, I couldn't feel any more sorry than that. What are they gonna do about fixing their college experience?

I don't know what to make out of it. Maybe I lack empathy.

I still believe that they could have informed all of us better. Tagging all of us to a Facebook event invite with times, dates, and locations would be perfect. A simple mass text message or a call would suffice.

If anything I would have told them that they should apologize for assuming that I have nothing better to do than waste time looking at their recurring 5-minute status updates.

I agree and second this. I mean seriously... once again, they're petty pricks. You're better off without them. It's their own fault they didn't contact you directly.
