I'd like to try one more time to at least clear the slate with you by
saying I'm sorry for whatever I exactly did to piss you off so much that
you can't find any form of forgiveness nor a reason to come to an
understanding.
Can't do anything other than that, and if you're the kind of person
who'd rather reply with hostility when someone is trying to make
amends...nothing I can do about that. I really don't understand what I
did that would deserve such rabid animosity from you.
Otherwise, have a good life and good luck.
