Dear Lauren,

When a person does the same thing repeatedly and insensitively you really need to start considering if there is a sadistic streak to what he is doing, some kind of perverse pleasure he seems to be having in causing you annoyance.

If I were you, I would definitely take the options that you had mentioned –

I don’t want to talk to him anymore.  I don’t want to hear “I’m sorry” from him anymore.  I want to be done.  I don’t even want to explain myself to him or him explain his side of the story.

If a person can’t show respect in friendship, then it doesn’t make sense continuing the friendship

Take care
