Somebody please answer!! Should I apologize to him ?!?
I really miss my friend .. we haven't spoken for like 3 months cause we kinda drifted .. only cause I would tell him my problems at the wrong time , ( I would call his phone at 5 in the morning just when he got home from work & falling asleep) it wasn't on purpose I just had alog of family issues.. and then we really stopped talking 2 months ago because I thought he was being fake and showed this guy I didn't like something of mine & we kinda went back and forth. I really miss him & he was like a brother to me.. litterally. He would take me home even if it was 6 in the morning, I would cry on his shoulders , you name it ( we was strictly friends only because I was dating his best mans before I knew him we all worked together) should I message him & sincerely apologize ? I'm not sure because I don't work there anymore but I miss him

Apologies aren't made because someone deserves or demands one.
Apologies are made because YOU KNOW a person deserves one from you,
because you did wrong.
The person you apologize to, does not have to accept your words,
but you owe them nothing more.
To continue is to beg. Begging for forgiveness is not apologizing.
Anytime (minutes to years later) that you apologize, it is done FOR YOU, because you know you did someone or something wrong.
It's for "letting go" of a thought or feeling that is HURTING YOU.
The other person or thing was a "detail" of the guilt you feel.
YOU NEVER APOLOGIZE "FOR " THE OTHER PERSON,
YOU APOLOGIZE "FOR YOU". End of Story.
As for your error. People have a life of their own problems and challenges.
NO ADULT should be expected to BABYSIT an Adult.
Try ASKING HIM about HIS day and HIS LIFE. Maybe there is something YOU can do for him or at least let him know someone cares and is listening.
When you make LIFE all about you... Nobody cares.
When you make Life about the people around you,
everyone tends to enjoy your company.
