[quote=Anonymous]This is one of those questions that I think results in skewed responses on DCUM. DC has an outsized number of people with the friend's personality. They really do think they know everything and that everyone wants their insight on everything. Also a lot of people who are comfortable telling people what to do and thinks that's a normal way to interact with a friend.

It's just a really aggressive personality type that is common in DC (as well as in certain industries like law). People who are like this, grew up like this, and spend a lot of time around people like this, think it's normal and that a comment like "sorry I told you something you weren't ready to hear" is an acceptable apology and not actually just ANOTHER insult.

But outside this area or these industries, most people get that the friend way overstepped and that apology was actually just another example of her being SUPER condescending and rude.

That's why there are a weird number of people on the thread arguing "she apologized, move on" or "well maybe your business IS bad." Because they have the same personality disorder as OP's friend.

It's very prevalent here and it's common on DCUM as well.[/quote]
