Agreed, with a caveat. Negative experiences are going to happen - it's how you deal with them that counts. In the OP's email he said that he still had a lot of negative *emotions* surrounding the event. It sounds like those emotions were coloring (probably in a big way) the way he talked about the experience. Talking about something that invokes strong negative emotions will always be uncomfortable - especially if you just met the person. > It's how you reacted and dealt with a negative situation that they want to > know.
