(((Elle))),

It's chemically impossible for you to make him feel bad. He may protest and say you did, but point out to him that there are no wires from your hand to his brain. He must decide to feel bad. When you have the specter of obligation hanging over you, it seems simpler to apologise. But, you are apologising for how he feels. Is that wise? Read my response to Dinah. Tell him to keep it to himself or you can't and won't talk to him till he does. You are tough enough to withstand a tongue lashing. (Knives and bullets are another thing....)
