Okay so yes I am an asshole. Last night I had to change plans around because of unforseen events beyond my control and it ended up hurting someone and making them angry. While I make no excuses for what I did I will however explain what happened for those of you who may care.
As some of you know and some of you may not I have not had much of an easy life. I have seen a lot of things from friends dying, to being homeless to damn near starving to death to being abandoned by my family... Those are just a few things that I have had to deal with... And a lot of people have had to deal with them so i expect no sympathy. But needless to say in my 28 years I have seen A LOT. More than most will ever experience in their entire lives. Now when I say that my friend Mike has always been there for me that is not only true but it is more than just that. He has literally saved my life on more than one occasion and in more than one way. When he found out I was homeless he gave me a place to stay, food and clothes. He helped me find a job and when I found that job he even paid my first months rent to get me back on my feet. He has been there through me through thick and thin. Well Mike is now married with children and a few years back he moved out to California with his wife and kids and I have not seen or heard much from him since. You know family takes priority of course. Well today around 7:30 or 8 I get a phone call from Mike and he says "Hey man Jon (My other friend) called me and told me you were going through some shit. And you know I can't have that man. So why dont you come hang out with me tonight and stay up here and we will hang out tonight and tomorrow" So long story short. Mike after getting a phone call from our buddy Jon. Flew from California to Columbus just to try and help me out. First of all I have never in my life had anyone care about me enough to just drop what they are doing and fly across country just to cheer me up. So there was just no way in the world I could say no. First because I havent seen him in years but because he came all the way here just to try and help me through a rough time in my life. Needless to say Mike is like my brother and there was just no way I could say "Hey man I have other plans" It just couldn't happen. I owe this guy my life quite literally and hell I may not see him again for many more years.
So needless to say I am sorry that my plans had to chance and I hope that she understands why I did what I did and I know I put her in a spot and yes I am an asshole for doing it and I do not blame her for being pissed at me but I do hope she understand and can forgive me.
(and now a lot of people on here know more about me than I normally like people to know

Shit happens, you did your best to explain and apologize

Hun if a woman cannot understand that situation and get over it, quite frankly she is not worth your time, you deserve a lot more than you have been given in life and friends like him are hard to come by, hold on to that.
