Yeah...I know what you mean.
I think the guy had good intentions--but you still didn't want to go to the social function.
I'm not saying you should directly apologize--but maybe placate the guy in some way tomorrow.
I don't know, Kraftie. I think it's had a good effect. We're still friendly together but I don't think he'll try to pressure me into doing things I don't want to do or don't feel comfortable doing in future. If he does, then he's just plain rude.
I might leave it the way it is. I don't really feel I have anything to apologize for and I wouldn't really miss his pseudo friendship anyway. He asks too much of me anyway - always asking me to fix his computer etc. He doesn't care what I'm doing. He just calls me and expects me to stop whatever I'm doing and go help him to the point where our boss has asked him to stop calling me. It's not my job. I'm just good at it.
He's even brought in his personal laptop from home for me to take home and fix OVER CHRISTMAS. I think that's insensitive and incredibly rude.
