Dear Queenie,
I’m ashamed to say that when I was in high school I bullied a classmate who was of a different cultural background than me. As an adult I know what I did was wrong and I would like to make amends.
Queenie, would it be okay for me to send her a message of apology on her Facebook page?—
Dear Remorseful,
It is never wrong to apologise for something you have done wrong, but do not take it for granted that your victim will forgive you just because you have done so. Keep your message brief and do not be surprised if she does not respond. And if she does respond, accept whatever she says and do not try to keep in touch with her further unless she is clearly willing to hear more from you.
