I don`t know what got into me. I don`t know what I was thinking. So, please, don`t ask.
I made some very stupid phone calls to some people. I didn`t say anything, I just whistled into the phone and tapped it about a bit.
Originally it was a joke, all in good humour. Until I did it again. Many, many, times.

I now seem to have lost 2, maybe 3, of my best friends over this. Purely because I was stupid. They don`t want to talk to me, they won`t let me apologise. [img]graemlins/crying.gif[/img]

What should I do ??

If they are good friends then they will get over it in time. Make light of it, crack a joke along the lines of... "So how about that dick that makes prank phone calls" with a big grin on your face
If you've let them know that you're sorry and that you've learnt your lesson there's not alot else you can do except wait and see. [img]smile.gif[/img]

EDIT: The joke was in bad taste

That`s just the problem- I can`t let them know. They won`t listen to me for long enough [img]graemlins/crying.gif[/img]

We all sometimes learn the hard way by doing dumb things only to regret them later.

Don't do that sort of thing again, LennonCook. Just see where it landed you.

As for your friends... I guess all you can do is tell them you're sorry and wait for them to accept your apologies...

Okay that is really freaky, cos my friend got a series of phone calls just like that on his mobile phone last weekend. It wasn't you was it? [img]tongue.gif[/img] - his name is Aaron Nassua btw [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Anyway I doubt your friends will continue to hold a grudge over such a small thing, so dont worry about it
