So, as much as I hate turning to the thread for advice, it seems as if I have no other choice.
My IRL friend, whom lurks the pony content section of this site, and I have had a slight falling out. It started with him believing I was being to much of a dick while I believed he was being an overly emotional baby. Ever since that day about a month ago he has seemed to avoid me. All of his friends that I know also report that he has gone quiet, and he never answers my greeting via skype.
I ask you, what should I do to rectify this relationship. I understand he is very tend to emotional swings, and that I can come off as cold and uncaring in many situations. I'm just not sure how to approach this situation because I believe know the reason he stopped talking. We were doing a playthrough when I became too busy with school and work to help. He could not enlist any other friend to help him so he believes none of us value his friendship.
While this is only a guess, I'm still not sure how to approach it, because if I bring back up the playthrough he will surely yell at me.

Jest keep trying to talk to him and just tell him how you feel

So just ask him why we don't talk and ask if it is because I went off the grid when he needed me?

Like tell him you want to still be friends and of he still ignores you, go to his house

That would be difficult, as IRL goes, he lives in a different state.

Then let him yell at you. You both need to address your feelings without holding back to properly rectify any situation such as this. It's not good to withhold how you feel. Sure it might be rough at first but once you get all of those feelings out in the open you can both start sorting them out and understanding one another better.

That might work, but he is the last person to directly address his feelings. He must always be right, and only in the right mood would he ever admit fault.

Prove to him that you want to fix the situation and that you do value him. I'm sure he'll put his pride aside at least long enough to take care of stuff.

Same here, we are both recluses in our social rings.
I never branched out and thus have a very small ring of friends.
