I have hurt the feelings of my best friend because I have not met her on the date I have promised and what compounded to the hurt I have given to her... I was not able to share a minimal amount which she needed most.
I have expressed my sorry through texts. After for a long time (almost an eternity) she said she had forgiven me.
We met 22 days after the unfulfilled date... we exchanged few words... hold her hand and felt the pressure from her hand... hope it was an assurance that she have indeed forgiven me. I am a man but I almost shed tears on that day
.
It would be nice to hear some sharing...

If she really treats you as a friend, I am sure she had already forgiven you. It may take some time for two people to had the same relationship if something had happened between them. If you had already asked sorry and she said she had forgiven you, do not anymore dwell to much on what's done.

I am sure over time she would have completely forgotten about it. If not then she might have been really hurt or holds grudges. Just don't be made to feel guilty about it for the rest of your life.

If it was for a valid reason that you were unable to meet and you did apologize through emails and then, met a couple of weeks later, I would hope that she is able to forgive you.
Now what? Where is this relationship going???
OK, you hurt her, you apologized, and hopefully, she forgave you. Is that the end of the story or the relationship?

Nice question... it is not end of the story of the relationship. We still continue to communicate each other through the cyber world.

@factorial Have you forgiven this person for not responding to your text for such a long time? Forgiveness works two ways, and is a process at times. If we keep saying I forgive that person soon our heart believes it. Forgive And Be Forgiven

Your sincerity here is so nice and refreshing to hear from a man. =) I am sure she has forgiven you. I would just suggest you try harder not to hurt her in the future. I wish you the best of luck with your best friend.

There is nothing to say. To say you forgive is something else as to do it for real. To do it for real will take time, a lot of plus you have to prove it won't happen again. This will take time again. Just give it time and don't keep apologizing, forcing, asking.

It's OK, be as kind as you are now and you will be able to "soften" her heart.There is one thing, very important thing: you always forgive someone you love.If she's in love with you, she will forgive you.Good luck to you both.

I’m glad for you. I can feel that you are so sincere and truly regret not hacing fulfilled your promis. I think she also can sense it from you as well, so she’s indeed has forgiven you. It’s so great that your mistake doesn’t cost you your relationship. And it can be normal again. I hope you’ll always can have smooth friendship with her in the future. It may won’t without problems, but I can feel from your sincerity, even with problems arise, you can still tackle it.
