this isnt a romance question but does involve a close friend who i care about. our friendship has been rocky for a few months because when i first met him 2 years ago he was very vulnerable and needy and i enjoyed caring for him and pepping him up. since then hes found his feet and is confident. however ive been treating him with kid gloves still and its caused problems. i meant well and have realized my error but the friendship is still quite strained. what can i do to fix things please advise me

Jay_xxxxx agony auntThe best way is to treat him like any other of your friends now, you can't help what you did and if you say sorry he'll understand.

Go out, and if he offers to pay don't say 'No I will' this will make him feel bad again, just say you will both pay half and half or if he is really telling you he wants to allow him, it will make him understand that you don't want to act like a mother to him any more and more like the friends your meant to be.

I hope you sort it out with him
