1. Is it possible to mend a friendship with a person whom you've had a falling out with?
2. Even if an attempt is made by either parties to repair it with some sort of maturity, does it ever go back to the way it was ever before?


*THis seemed like the most relevant section to put it in*

1. Yes, but only time will tell. In some cases, it might take a few days. In other cases, it might take a few weeks or a year.
2. Depends on the willingness of both sides to make it the way it used to be. Usually, I think one side wants it to be the same but the other side doesn't bother.

Anyways, I'm no expert but I think time is the key here.

Disagreement / argument
1. My friends and I have arguments all the time, yet we remain as friends, even during the stress of the HSC. Having frequent arguments has allowed my friends and I to understand each other's perspectives about certain issues. So in my opinion, a relationship without an argument is not a solid or worthwhile relationship

2.It can go either way, the relationship could end up being better than it was before, or it could become more awkward and worse. It really depends on how much either party is willing to reconcile with each other.

1) Yes it is possible as long as both of you can come to a compromise regarding the issue that may have sparked this falling out

2) If the above is successful then yes over time it will go back to the way it was, but if not then things might get awkward between you and the friend

Apologies for the terrible 12vie advice

I hope everything turns out alright between you and the friend!

Lettuce chill xD

Sometimes its just better moving on, and making new friends ^_^

Or just accept full responsibility; two stubborn people get nowhere.
