WWYD

V and I went out for dinner with another couple last night. We see them about once a year. I'm closer with the wife, and met the husband through her.

V and the other husband got into a rather animated debate about healthcare. By the end of the night, we agreed to disagree. V liked having an intelligent debate, but I sensed that the other husband was kind of upset and flustered. (Especially because his mother is going through the process of possibly being diagnosed for cancer right now, as he told us during dinner.)

But I don't know him well enough to read him that accurately, so I could be wrong.

Do you think I should email the wife and apologize? Or let it be?

Re: WWYD

  • I personally would leave it alone. It sounds like it was the boy's fight and not yours. It might be weird to apologize for your husband. I think I'm probably wrong, but this is how I would handle it. Plus, you only see each other once a year.

  • Perhaps not great timing for a debate that sounds like it has a personal element to it. I might be tempted to bring it up with your friend - especially if they seem a little cool towards you guys.
  • Maybe send her a quick e-mail.

    "Hey, it was really get to get together with you guys last night.  Was that sushi not amazing?  

    I just wanted to make sure that you H isn't upset with us.  I know that he and V got into a heated discussion about something rather close and upsetting for him right now, and I just wanted to make sure that he's aware that V really means no harm, he was just really happy to be having an intelligent, 2 sided conversation."

    Or something to that effect?
