I couldn’t force him to tell me, and I moved on with a light heart.
I don’t think it was my lesson to learn, it was his, and my regret isn’t for me, it’s for him as I think his misunderstanding hurt him and ate him up emotionally whereas I was oblivious. The regret is that I couldn’t make things better for him from my position of ignorance, yet it could so easily have been put right.
If that makes sense :?
Forgive me if I am wrong, but how can you speak for him now he has passed? The learning a lesson for him seems a bit harsh for you to say. You cannot know how he felt about the situation, even if it’s what he relayed to someone else regarding it. When someone has an issue and it’s said directly to those affected only then can they ask questions in return to resolve the situation. That’s just my opinion having read your comment. Of course we don’t know the whole situation, I can also appreciate that too. 8)
