On Learning that A relationship is damaged


For many years now, I have been aware that someone in my past seemed to be out of touch for no apparently reason.  Eventually I got the message that there was some problem between us.  And so, since it is easy to get someone's email, I wrote the following note.


Dear NAME REDACTED

If it were to happen that I have offended you, or offended a mutual friend, or in some way been inadequate, I would like to somehow make amends. There has certainly been a lot of damage and the worst damage I think comes from someone just not being up to standards, up to snuff. I think fondly of you, and used to consider you a best of friends. So this is all a puzzle and of course it hurts my feelings.

Sincere best wishes and may I hear from you soon.
