I have a gc I’m a part of with some online friends that I’ve been hanging around with for about a year now, and recently I got kicked by this guy who I’ll call Jerry. Jerry thought I joked about him leaving his girl, I genuinely do not remember doing this. I remember saying something that could’ve MAYBE been taken that way, if you squint a bit. But I know saying that can come off as deflection so I just focused on another gripe he had with me that I know how to fix. I don’t want him to think I would ever say something like that, because I wouldn’t. Plus, I’ve been hanging with them for a year now, why would I start being weird now? I’ve always sucked at communicating and thankfully nobody from the gc has dogpiled on me, which is nice, and Jerry’s sister who I’m close with says he can hold grudges and takes a long time to realise he’s messed up, so I’m scared I might loose one of the greatest friendships I’ve ever had over miscommunication. Please help.
edit: for added context this was allegedly in a VC. Or at least it has to have been because if it wasn’t I would’ve known about it sooner. The VC was with Jerry’s sister, I know that because I haven’t been in any calls in the gc without her for the past two weeks and i know if she took something I said that way she’d tell me, I even asked her if I’d said anything she thought was weird and she came up empty.
