A male United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hello,

I am writing again about the teacher I bullied and Im scared to say sorry because it has been so long.

Im scared to get in trouble for talking to her though.

She may freak out if I approach her.

I have lost all my confidence, I only talk to my mates and I really am to shy to talk to her.

But what if she has just forgotten about it all and is not bothered. Then I will look like the fool.

Thank You for a great reply burnin bridges, but I need more help

If you feel embarrassed about what you have done, I'd suggest that you write your teacher a letter of apology.

Be honest and sincere and wait a day, then approach her and speak to her about it. A late apology is better than none.

flower girl agony auntWhy don't you see if you can arrange with your head teacher a meeting with the three of you, it would make it a more comfortable environment there is no chance of the teacher freaking out then and there is no way of you getting into any sort of trouble because you have gone through the correct channels to deal with this.

I think if you were able to do it in this way everyone would be very proud of you for being so grown up about the whole situation, i happen to think you have done a great job so far by even wanting to apologise most your age would laugh it off and not care about the teachers feelings.

Take care.xx.

I doubt she has forgotten. Generally you don't forget things easily, it's easier to forgive though than forget. However silence and hesitation don't socialise well with forgiveness, so if that's what you seek, don't wait so long until apologising. You say you're too shy to talk to her but surely you weren't shy when commiting that mistake. It's not going to be ridiculous that you talk to her about it, you're maybe subconsciusly trying to find reasons not to do it, but admitting wrongness is a good act, and she'll appreciate it, so long as you accompany it by considerate behaviour in time to come. Do it.

YummyMummy agony auntI would approach her and say you just came to talk to her to apologise for what you did. If she freaks out then walk away, but you may find she will sit and listen to what you have to say. I can't tell you what to say as it has to be you truly apologising for what you did.
