The Second E-mail
Sue
B)Read the lesson again and tick the advice Sue
gave to the Lost Girl in Let’s Do It No.3.
Say sorry if you hurt your friend .
Clearly express how you feel.
Give your friend some time to cool down.
Talk to your friend directly as soon as possible .
Write to your friend and ask what’s wrong.
You can still be friendly even if you are not friends
anymore.
Be aware of your body language.
Dear Lost Girl,
Many people have had the same experience as you. Sometimes it's pretty hard to tell what's wrong in a friendship.Try writing to your friend or you can ask another friend for help. If neither of these things works, just leave your friend alone.She may need some time to cool down and think about the situation herself.
If you figure out what the problem is, think about it.Did you really hurt your friend?If yes, go directly to her and say sorry. Maybe it was just a big misunderstanding.
