My best friend brought up the fact that I joked with her older husband and he was hurt. Four of us were out to dinner. Me, my husband, her, and her husband. I told her there was an elderly man next to me who had an "old people smell" and it was hard to eat. Then a few minutes later, I joked with her husband and said, "Do you have the old people smell?" His reaction was a chuckle. Well, 5 days later, my best friend emails me that he felt I spoke in bad taste, and it was rude of me to say this. I apologized, but told her I, myself was hurt by him taking offense to that when I was only kidding. Well, one thing led to another, and we (through emails) argued back and forth, and ending with her saying I am just like my mother, a self centered whining baby, and I needed to get a life, and not count on other people to make my life happy, and numerous other put downs to me. Now in all our email conversations, I never once put her down, or did any name calling. I am hurt beyond belief.
