When I was a kid or even in college, I\u2019d stop talking to someone if I was mad with them. That was just being passive-aggressive. I\u2019ve grown up a bit and tell people when I\u2019m mad at them. Just did that with a friend of mine who is a valued business partner, and things went OK when the business partner apologized.<\/p>\n
Most of the time, it works. Sometimes it just doesn\u2019t. I\u2019ve had friends and plan providers write me off for good, just because they didn\u2019t want to accept responsibility for their mistakes or bad conduct. You can only control yourselves, not others.<\/p>\n
