 Embarassment, shame, some people are just not big enough to admit that they made a mistake so will stay well clear so that they don't have to face the issue. A lot of men appear not to like conflict so they will avoid the situation completely.
I have just had a row with one of my friends and I feel very strongly that he is in the wrong. However he is very stubborn and I know he won't call for a few days as his pride is so great he just couldn't do it. I too will not call as I feel that I was most definitely not in the wrong! Undoubtedly though because it is my nature I will be reduced to calling as I don't like falling out and bizarrely I will end up saying that I am sorry even though I have nothing to be sorry for!
Often these things calm down with time as the finer details are lost in memory, people miss each other, people realise what they fought over was stupid etc etc. Even very serious things fade in severity with time.
