I just graduated from my high school, like everyone else from class of '07, and I feel bad about how i treated this one girl from my class. She is very sweet, she would never hurt anyone, and I have a lot of respect for her. One afternoon during the year, I ran into her and she started talking to me, but that was no big deal. After that, I guess she became my friend, except I didn't really know if she was or not. So after that, I walked by her several times at school, and I didn't really know whether I should greet her or not. I didn't know if we were friends or not. Now I feel that I hurt her feelings, and I feel rather guilty about it. Should I call her to apologize, or leave it as it is? What should I do?

That's so nice to hear that someone has now realize that the person they ignored, walked pass or was mean to that they were wrong to do so. It shows Ur a person with a congestous and it shows ur growing up too.
Yes u should tell her Ur sorry for the way u treated her, and being the type of person u say she is she will forgive u. But what u should do is call her ask her to meet u for lunch and while Ur having a nice lunch tell her then that Ur sorry for the way u treated her in school.
It takes a big person to do this because saying
"I'm sorry " is one of the heardest thing for most people to say.
My mother taught me to always be nice to people because u just never know U could be being mean to a person who u might need to help u one day or u could be being mean to a person who could end up being ur best of friend.
So yes tell her Ur sorry, enjoy getting to know her and enjoy the rest of Ur summer.

Honestly... unless this is eating at you I would just let it go. Unless for some odd reason this girl is your neighbor or going to be going to the same college as you in the fall or you work together. But the chances of you actually seeing her again after graduation is slim to none. I went to a very small high school and I rarely run into people I went to school with (I still live in that small town) But if it will help you move past High School and all the stupid things people do in high school... then give her a call and say "Sorry for being and idiot... hope we can still be friends" But if you do so be prepard to actually be a friend and not just another face you say hi to at the grocery store when home for Christmas break.

I suggest giving her a call, but just to talk and ask her about how she thinks about graduating high school. Just ask her simple questions like "So, what do you think about College?" Either way, if you just have a conversation with her, she will think that you aren't mad at her for any reason, and that you don't dislike her. So, in the end, I suggest calling her up and having maybe a 5-10 minute conversation with her. Don't say any excuses though like "I'm bored, so I thought I would call you." That would give her the impression that you only want to talk to her when you have nothing else to do. Good luck!

If you want to become more than just friends then go ahead and call. If you don´t then leave it alone so that you don´t make things worse than what they are.Of course if you should happen to run into her casually then you should act in a friendly fashion.Remember that it is difficult for mature people of opposite sexes to maintain a platonic friendship so what chance have younger people got?

Send her an email or letter of apology, i think is your best bet. Itll be less awkward than a phone call but still sincere. Just say that your sorry if you hurt her feelings at all. Better safe than sorry.

Call her - you can never have too many friends! Don't mention that you feel guilty for snubbing her - she may not even be upset about you not talking to her. Just see what she's up to and ask if perhaps you can catch a movie sometimes.
I wish you well!

Really if you want to stop feeling guilty you should call her. It isn't going to hurt anyone and it will make you feel a lot better.

If you feel bad about it, go ahead and apologize. I can't really see any risk. Even if she wasn't hurt by you, it's not like she would get offended by the fact that you were thoughtful enough to be worried about it.

Call her and tell her what you just said here to a bunch of strangers. She may or may not accept your apology if you did hurt her feelings but you will have done your best.

I think you should call her to apologize!
It was a misanderstanding and I think you could be very friend of her or maybe more... Maybe she likes more than a friend! Try on... you will only repent of what u didnt in life
