My best mate..
Following on from my question about my best friend being rude to me via email (concerning a man she thinks I should not be friends with since he is married, and she called me a "hussy") I am still angry with her and feel I should give her a wide berth right now.
The problem is, she has texted me (not on the subject, just a general silly one) and sent me a xmas present and is obviously waiting for me to reply. I can't NOT reply since it is xmas and that would be rude, but I don't want her to think that I have forgotten all about how rude she was to me.
I NEVER get upset or angry so it takes a fair deal to make me give someone the silent treatment!
What should I do- forgive and forget?

Its always possible, that her sending you a gift, is a way of trying to make up, but what you really want is an apology.
I think you have to get things into the open, and maybe ask her if your male friend is still an issue, that way, you know where you stand.
All this aside, have a Merry Christmas.
Ouch!! Being called hussy by a good friend must really hurt. I understand how you feel and if it were any other time of the year I would be tempted to let her stew for a while.
However, it is Christmas and I feel it would be better to put the matter to one side for now, respond to her text and thank her for the gift.
it sounds to me that your friend was a bit tactless but she was worried about you and this married guy and didn't want you getting yourself hurt or into a mess.
by sending you a present and message shes obviously trying to get back into your goodbooks, perhaps shes too embarrased to speak to you face to face at the moment.
