I messed up in a university group project and pissed someone off. The whole time we’d not taken that project seriously and I thought no one cared about it but it turned out she did. She lashed out as a result. I apologised to the other 3 people involved in the project but this girl’s reaction took me so aback that I couldn’t bring myself to sending an apology message.

Weeks have passed and she’s still angry at me. Other people in the group have apologised to her and she’s cool with them, I think she expected me to do the same, but I’m torn between knowing she’s right and I messed up, and thinking lashing out is never justified (I’ve apologised to people in the past for exploding like that even if I was right).

Advice: apologise or not?

Hey all,

Looking to take the 004 exam having completed Bryan Krausen's past papers for practice (on udemy).

Those of you who're familiar and who've taken the 004 exam - how similar to the exam would you say Krausen's past papers were, and how good of an indicator of performance are scores on those papers?

Thanks!

Someone I know recently said she’s looking for a man to take the initiative and let her rest from decision-making fatigue and just follow him along. Which struck me, because she surrounds herself with friends with weak personalities (who don’t state their opinion, want other people to like them, follow other people’s lead etc.) and her long-term ex was someone who wouldn’t even leave the house without her prompting him to.

When I pointed this out (politely, of course), she retorted that you can want different things out of your partner than from friends or anyone else. She also said her experience with her ex left her wanting someone stronger-willed than she is.

This left me thinking, do you guys think it’s possible to be a completely different person with your partner?

Leaving aside issues like insecurity (e.g. I get people behaving differently with friends due to peer pressure, etc. ). Assuming maturity and a degree self-confidence in who you are, do you think it’s genuinely possible to behave a certain way, only to come back home and transform into the complete opposite?
