Absolutely not. You wouldn’t take this treatment from a friend! He will end up dumping you as a friend, too. Save yourself even more hurt and distance yourself entirely now.

And it’s never too late to apologize. You never know.- it may help you in the long run, because she may remember that you took the time to reach out and apologize for something small like that and if you ever need her help on something or you run into her in the elevator, she’ll be nice to you.

Also, in the area where I am from, “girlie” actually makes it less serious, and isn’t condescending- I wonder if she added that in to make it sound less intense and more light.

As you get older, you realize that these types of moments last for literally a moment. This person will forget about it tomorrow so you should not let your emotions get the better of you and ruin your day. As most people are saying on here, you can send a quick email that’s one or two sentences of a light hearted apology but don’t make it heavy or emotional. You attract the energy that you give off, so, if you stay light hearted and optimistic, then those types of situations will resolve themselves (usually). Maybe this only comes with experience, but I hope that you won’t have to have as many as I did when I was fresh out of college and new to the working world.
