Worst part is, even if resolved… you’ll still think about it at some random point

...thirty years later.

(Jen's post made me remember a heated discussion I had in college, in the early nineties. One that had no real impact on my life, but that I regret having escalated.)

My experience is that heated discussions do not end (in my head) until I find a way to bring them to some resolution — a clearer shared understanding, ideally, or slooowly convincing myself that it's not possible / worth attempting.
