I've never been one to have serious relationships, so after dating a guy for a couple months this Summer, I developed real feelings for him. However, I don't think the relationship started out on the right foot as I wasn't really looking for a boyfriend at that time. I ended up bringing him home on the first date — we did not sleep together but things progressed rather quickly from there on out. It has now been five months since I broke off the five-month relationship, and I am still beating myself up for the way I handled things.
I broke it off because I wanted a more serious relationship and he did not; I wasn't going to continue dating him with no commitment. I feel like he didn't see the best of me as my behavior changed during the course of our relationship. I know this was a learning experience but I am wondering why I can't get over it. I feel like I still have something to prove to him and I can't let go of it. Do you have any advice?

Dear Sugar,
Last year I went to visit one of my best friends in Chicago. Before I had arrived, she mentioned that she cut her hair really short. A few years ago when I did the same thing, she would tease me about it, so the night I arrived, in joking, I said something about her new "boy" do. I reassured her later that night that I was just teasing, but during my visit I couldn't help but feel that she was distant towards me.
After I left, she stopped returning my phone calls and when I would see her online, she would not respond to my IMs. After about a month, she finally called me to let me know that I had really hurt her feelings. I apologized and I reiterated that I was only joking with her, but I'm not sure I made things better because I pointed out that she had teased me when I had my hair cut that short, too. She reminded me that she's a lot more sensitive than I am and told me I should have known better. I apologized and thought we had worked everything out, but I haven't talked to her in over a year. I left her messages on her birthday, on Christmas, and on New Year's last year, but I haven't heard a peep in response so I decided to give her some space.
I miss her terribly and want nothing more than to have my friend back so should I call her and make another attempt to mend our relationship, or should I just respect her obvious decision not to talk to me and just leave it at that? — Cut Out Constance
