Passenger From My Wreck Is Opening Up?

[SunsetBengal]

Brad, all of you that were involved in that crash were permanently altered as a result. Some in a physical state, like yourself, and others in their psychological/emotional state, like the man who was in the passenger seat. Each of your lives was forever changed because of the events that transpired that night.

Why your friend took so long to talk about that night is not the issue, the fact that he has, is what is vital to the healing process. Your physical injuries will never fully heal, but your psyche can. Because you were forever altered from that crash does not mean that the crash is what defines you, as a man. My advice would be to welcome the dialogue with your friend, embrace the fact that you can still have a relationship, and be supportive of one another moving forward.
