Biggest Fear

I hate the telephone game. It always comes back around to bite me in the butt. -.- I was out in the field with my buddy and we were just talking and catching up. I told him something about someone we both knew, and how I thought it was silly. You see, it was a girl down the street. She had admitted to me that she had an interest in me, and I didn't really act on it in fear of hurting her and our new friendship. She made me an apple pie with a heart on it, and brought it over to me. I told my friend about it, and he thought I said that I didn't like it for that reason, and that I was just being a complete jerk about the whole thing. She storms over to my farm a few days later and starts ripping on me for something I didn't even say! It really upset me becauseI almost lost a friend over nothing. ='(

Thats my biggest fear: is hurting someone or losing a friendship. Even close calls like this one upset me. But the misunderstanding was figured out, so there is no longer a problem. We're still good friends.
