I had a bit of an issue with a friend over the weekend. He was being a bit of a git and making a few bad comments in regards to race and such so I emailed him about how I felt. Its been about 4 days and no response. I feel like doing something but no idea what! Its poor form that he has not responsed.

I have known this chap since I was 5, I am 29 now!

What would you do?

What did he say that upset you so much it was worth emailing about?

Post a copy of the email by recorded delivery, just to make sure he gets it.

And if that still doesn't work, hand deliver it!

Edited to add - which race was it? London to Brighton?

you total wuss. Which is why he hasn't responded. Seriously, take a step back and look at what you've done. A friend makes a racist comment in conversation? Everyone, everywhere from all walks of life will make racist comments.

You've known him for twenty-four years and you thought it would be better to email him than talk to him about it there and then?

No. But you can talk to friends face to face rather than e-mailing them. Have you checked your SPAM folder perhaps he mailed you back. or you could just ask him?
