Perhaps I Offended You?

I called up an old friend today and we got to talking. Talking about the famous one-way street. Perhaps you know it. You meet someone and exchange numbers and then you call them. Perhaps they call you. Perhaps not. Perhaps you meet together or maybe not. Then you call them, and call them. Then you ask yourself , what's wrong with this picture? I always assumed the other person had a clash of personalities with you or something. You never seem to find out the answer. But this friend says what she does is leave a message on their answering machine saying please forgive me if I've done anything to offend you. SubhanAllah! I never thought of doing such a thing. I never thought I could have really offended anyone. I only thought I wasn't on the same wave-length or maybe they were too busy. We also talked about how people are so quick to talk behind your back instead of confronting you. If you've done something to offend someone then they should make it plain so that you can either a) defend yourself, tell your side of the story or b) agree that you were in the wrong and ask for forgiveness. Since so many are not the type to confront people then I think its an excellent idea to do as this friend does. Insha Allah I hope the people who have cut me off have never been offended by me and if they have will one day give me the right to do either a or b. In the meantime I hope I have not offended any of my readers.
