True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.
--- Charles Caleb Colton
Just like in any other relationship, arguments and fights are also a part of friendship. You will
hardly find friends who have never fought with one another. Whatever the reason is, if a person feels that he is responsible for creating the differences, it is important that he should apologise to his friend.
Though you can use the email, text messages or chat online to express your apology, the good old
way of saying sorry to your friend through a letter will surely have a great effect on him. This will
make your friend realize that your efforts to say sorry are genuine and that you really care for him.
Points to Remember:
Timing: Write the letter at the proper time. It is not advisable to put it off for too long.
Words: While writing the letter, what matters the most is that you truly feel sorry.
Sequence: Always begin by apologising and saying sorry for your fault. Then explain to him your
side of the story. In the third and last paragraphs, talk about what his friendship means to you and
make a promise not to repeat the mistake.
Delivery: You can either post the letter or deliver it personally or through someone else. You can
also keep it at a location where your friend will be able to find it easily.
Some people may try to point out the friend’s mistake while writing the letter. Avoid this
completely, as it can make matters worse. The letter has to be brief and should only talk about the
subject that has led to your apology. Keep patient and do not expect immediate results. In some
cases, it may take time for the person to forgive and forget.
