About This Quote

It takes only one word to hurt a woman, a matter of seconds, one stupid, impatient blow of the crop. But winning back her trust takes years. And sometimes there isn't the time. The quote above is about an event that happened to me recently.

I am very close to my cousin who lives in another country. We have been friends for years and had a great relationship until a few months ago. Then she decided that she wanted to break off contact with me.

There were many reasons for this, but one of them was something that happened last year. She got angry with me because I had told her something that was upsetting. She said that I had made her feel bad and that she was not interested in being my friend anymore.
