This may sound strange but I don't want to ruin my friendship by apologizing.
Why do you feel you would ruin a friendship through apologizing?
I am not great at apologizing for things and if I did I think I would only make it worse.
Being too prideful in certain cases is not good. Being able to let go of your pride and apologize for what you did wrong shows more strength than saying nothing at all.
I want to keep my pride. It's not a bad thing to have a bit of pride.
Yeah but you also should want to keep the friendship and standing up for what is right and admitting your mistake takes a lot of courage.
