Dear StormMako:
I will reply further later, maybe as late as tomorrow, but for now, in regard to: “I still feel guilty for feeling“- there is no real, or valid guilt in feeling anything. Whatever you feel now, or felt then, is not a matter of your choice. No Choice = No Guilt.
What we say and do is subject to choice, not what we feel.
“What is your advice for feeling guilty about something as silly as this situation?”- you did not say or do anything wrong. Rest in this fact, best you can.
(I used to feel guilty about anything and everything because my mother raised me on guilt, guilt-tripping me on a regular basis).
