I had encountered a slight conflict with my close friend the other day, at least there was a confrontation that had happened. But inspite of the one-on-one talk he still remained snobbish. I don't know if he hasn't moved on or still hooked on the situation that had happened but for me it was over and I'm trying to maintain the positive aura. Life is so good to root hatred. It doesn't bring joy, right?

AS long as you've done your part and no more regrets or any things left undone, then you're good. If he still got issues despite your talk and attempts to patch it up then that's his problem. It is good that you have moved on; life has a lot to offer and it moves fast that you do not need to be caught up in something that is already fixed but due to someone's immaturity to see it through, it remains hanging. Well, at least on his side.
Just give him some time and space, maybe he's still not so over it yet. Sooner or later, he will bounce back and you two are going to be okay again.

I guess give him enough time to accept things and move on like what you did.
If he is a friend to you, just try to understand him.
Well sometimes people tend to make simple things complicated that sometimes brings hatred and anxiety.

![Happiness - Happiness is a mental or emotional state of well-being characterized by positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.[1] A variety of biological, psychological, religious, and philosophical approaches have striven to define happiness and identify its sources. Various research groups, including Positive psychology, endeavor to apply the scientific method to answer questions about what "happiness" is, and how we might attain it.
Philosophers and religious thinkers often define happiness in terms of living a good life, or flourishing, rather than simply as an emotion. Happiness in this sense was used to translate the Greek Eudaimonia, and is still used in virtue ethics. Happiness economics suggests that measures of public happiness should be used to supplement more traditional economic measures when evaluating the success of public policy.](http://img.mylot.com/350x350/2587139.jpg "Happiness - Happiness is a mental or emotional state of well-being characterized by positive or pleasant emotions ranging from contentment to intense joy.[1] A variety of biological, psychological, religious, and philosophical approaches have striven to define happiness and identify its sources.

It's good that you could easily move on from a conflict. However, there are people who can't move on as easily as you do - you should learn to understand that people are different but all-in-all if the bond of friendship is true, conflicts could be talked out and both could move on.
Yeah, life is too short to focus on the drama anyway. It is always better to be happy not just with friendship but in anything you do.
Have a great mylOt experience ahead!

I think people move on at different time and you will not know and if you should bring it up again that will probably just make it take a while longer to be forgotten . In my opinion I would just give your friend time and let him sort out his own feeling when he feels okay he will come around .Don't worry no one stay upset forever .

That's right grenzy. We should never let anybody, whether a close friend or not, to ruin our day. If we will always be affected by the way others act or talk, more or less, we are letting them to take control of our lives. Just look at the children, no matter how intense the fight they had at the morning, believe it, you will see them friends again in the afternoon. They will not let the day pass without reconciling. They have a forgiving heart. They do not let displeasure ruin their entire life.
