Two halves make a whole story

I don't know how this managed to slip my mind or my attention, it was a complete lapse in judgement and previous information that I wasn't presented with when I needed it. Like a judge within a courtroom making a ruling, you need to hear both sides of the story so that you get an equal point of view and then understand what happened, why it happened, and what went down. Not only for their benefit, but for the others that are bystanders waiting for their chance to tell their story of what may have happened. Anything can help, and with the past year of speculation and uncertainty, finally the one half of the story which launched this blog into action, came up in conversation and all the cards on the table were laid down and out for everyone to see. This would normally be a slam dunk in a court case, but we don't live in a perfect world, and no one here, the people that I live with in C have the right to act as a judge. However, I think that everyone has the right to understand and know why a single event has shaped the way that this year might have gone. My suite could have been the fun whole; it always was from the beginning of the year but we had a small mishap which messed up what could have been an amazing friendship that began at the end of the year until god knows when. 

It may be horrible to say, but I have blindly been following the ideas and advice of the people around me without any consideration as to what the other person was thinking. I simply didn't think to check on them, I felt so bad that I couldn't get any answers from her because of all the awkward tension that had been brought up through what had happened previously this year. I usually look at both sides of the story, but in this case, I didn't and I truly regret my decision as to no inquiring enough, especially when I am the one to ask all the questions.

I have now heard both sides of the story and I feel fully justified in saying that I know everything and am truly appalled at what I have previously been toled and have heard. You can be so blinded by the people that you love and live with, that you don't think to consider the people around you that might have been affected. 
I cannot believe that I have fallen for some sort of skulduggery to which has ruined my relationship with my roommate that could have blossomed into a great friendship at the beginning of the year. 

Janiners I am so sorry, Ammi and Nessa, thank god we got a chance to talk before the end of the year before we split and went our own directions until the start of the new year. I'm happy I know the full story, even if it did take 6 months to get to this point.

Thank you for your honesty.
