This is just not right. It does not have to be this way. Look at a group like my bunco group. Other than a little dust-up with one very unreliable member, we have been friends for two decades. It is true each person is not perfect, super-close friends with each other person, but everyone continues to be friends in spite of disagreement that happen once in a while. I’m just saying - not every damn thing requires a summit to cry about and then rectify. It’s possible to just roll your eyes and mutter, “Well, that’s just Denise, thinking she alone is busy…”
