Re: I respectfully request guidance.
Men are clumsy. We cause offense all the time. When we do, we apologize as soon as possible after the offensive event.
Apologies come in 3 parts:
1) I'm sorry I _______________________________.
2) My mistake was ______________________.
3) How can I make it up to you?
And then you stop. You've done your duty. Whether you are forgiven or not is not up to you, rather, it's up to the offended party. A man accepts their decision as final.
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

I think that point 2 should be 2) I think that my mistake was ______________. Am I right? [Possibly "my reason for doing this was _____________]Originally Posted by KukriKhan
Then besides the female penchant for not correcting and still being in a mood about something that she has knowingly chosen not to share is then her issue, not yours.
Phone or neutral territory is a better option. Phone is quicker and cheaper, coffee shop shows you're investing more time and effort into it; I know that on this logic serenading by a quartet is much better, but that rather blows things up rather.
An enemy that wishes to die for their country is the best sort to face - you both have the same aim in mind.

Re: I respectfully request guidance.
I'm fairly sure they will at least get my message, and I hope it was worded well. I kept it as simple as I could, and ended with an opening for a personal meeting. I will not obsess as I cannot afford to. All I can do is wait.
What makes this worse is that we are depending on each other to get a project finished. There are five people who have no clue what has transpired and if this gets bad everyone is screwed. I'm a master at screwing people over, apparently.

Cheat on a girl and the relationship is over. The choice has been made. Further dwelling serves no purpose.

Um... I'm not sure what the misunderstanding would be in that case. I don't think what I did is that horrible.

Trouble with females, they hate it when they are wrong and you get blamed for it if they are.
You could innocently sit down at the computer, only to find out only the screen was turned off, and when you turn it on, you find out your partner is having highly sexual conversation with another male and infact been cheating behind your back with them, and they go female fenzy crazy at you, because you apparently invaded their privacy and the situation is only a problem because you now know about it.

In my situation though, the response I got was "None of your business! It's my body! You don't own me!". That was after 2,5 years, 1,5 of those spent living together....
Yeah, who am I to think that's any of my business.....

Re: I respectfully request guidance.
You still don't get it, asking what you did wrong is the greatest offense by not knowing.

Huh? Wait, look at the time. Late afternoon in Dutchistan, beer-thirty. :)
The blank lines
are where you fill in what you did wrong.1) I'm sorry I _______________________________.
2) My mistake was ______________________.

I know what I did wrong in one relationship; I'm not the kind of guy who comes home drunk and beats the crap out of my girlfriend... As that's what she wanted, she dumped me....Unless you were making a comment about never knowing what one did wrong in relationships wit teh wimmins. In which case:
