5th Grade Apology

Back in elementary school, after class during 5th grade, I was looking at a few portraits of classmates with Missy and another classmate (I don't recall who it was at the time), as well as our 5th grade teacher, Mr. Cook.  As we sifted through them, Mr. Cook found Missy's portrait and said, "Oh, you look so nice, Missy!  Doesn't she?" as he turned to me.

I looked at the photo of Missy, one of the few super sweet gals who I liked during my childhood because she was always so nice to me, and out of childhood affectation, I blurted out, "She looks like a dog!" and cruelly laughed.  Missy, her friend, and Mr. Cook were shocked at my rude words.  I was generally not a troublemaker, nor someone that was disrespectful.  In retrospect, it was perhaps a way to catch her attention.  Obviously, this was not the best approach to woo a girl, and it's taken many years to learn otherwise

In any case, I felt horrible as soon as those nasty words came out of my mouth.  Mr. Cook demanded an immediate apology, but I declined, ran to grab my bag and swiftly exited the classroom.

Now, after all these years, I've reconnected with her and have the opportunity to apologize to Missy...

Hey Missy!

Yes, and loving it! Been here since 2001! It's truly spoiled me. I don't think I could live anywhere else.

I'm doing well. Just recently laid off about a week ago, and trying to find myself right now to figure out what the next chapter in my life will hold.

On a side note, I am SO VERY HAPPY to have reconnected with you!

I want to apologize to you. This is many years overdue, and I don't know if you even recall. But in 5th grade in Mr. Cook's class when we were looking at class photos and portraits, I teasingly called you a dog. I'm not quite sure why. It was so spontaneous. I should have never said such a mean thing. You were always such a sweet girl, so very nice to me during those years, and completely undeserving of such disrespect.

I attribute it to probably having a crush on you at the time and expressing affectation in a 5th grade manner. As soon as those words came out of my mouth, I deeply regretted it.

It has greatly weighed on my heart all these years, and I have been hoping to apologize to you for it ever since. You probably think it silly of me to do so a couple decades later, but I know that children can be cruel and such scars can be carried for many years.

So again, I'm not sure if I hurt you at the time with my hurtful words, or if you even remember. What's even more idiotic of me was that I said it right in front of Mr. Cook who demanded I apologize to you immediately, and I shamefully refused.

In any case, I truly wanted to apologize in person. I was going to ask for your number so that I could at least do it over the phone, but I feel that I cannot wait and that I must apologize now.

Melissa Gerner, please accept my apology for my childishness and immaturity in grade school.

Deeply apologetic,
Former 5th Grade Idiot
