Here's the deal.
A few weeks ago my ipod went missing from my house. I clearly remember bringing it home and leaving it on a table, and the next day I could not find it ANYWHERE. I was not drunk or anything else that would explain the memory lapse.
Anyway, the night that it went missing, I had a friend/former **** buddy at my house, who was in the room with the ipod alone for a few minutes while I used the bathroom, and I didn't notice if it was there when I came out, but I never saw it after that. This friend is somebody that has a history of doing stupid **** when emotional (which she was that night) and has admitted to some minor shoplifting.
Long story short, after looking EVERYWHERE multiple times and asking anyone that could possibly have seen/moved it, I came to the only conclusion I saw, which is that she stole it.
I confronted her and **** hit the fan because she didn't like being accused of theft and I was certain she had it.. The end result is that we have been completely no contact since then and a fairly good friendship died.
The problem is that today, my ipod turned up. I still don't know how it possibly could have gotten to where it was, but I'm not going to make up crazy theories and say she planted it there or something.
The bottom line is, I ****ed up, and was entirely wrong.
So, here is my dilemma. We are not talking, but given that I was wrong, I feel I should apologize.
On the one hand that might look week, and besides, the friendship is probably beyond repair.
On the other hand, we still have mutual friends, and anything I could do to minimize the tension seems like a good idea.
Thoughts? I'm thinking I should just man up and admit my mistake.
