The Email You Wish You Hadn't Sent

Clicking on 'send' when you know you shouldn't have is like dying in a plane crash. There's nothing you can do. You're going down and you're going to crash and burn. Similar to the 5 stages of grief, you will experience the following emotions:

1. Cringe (what the F**K have I done)
2. Denial (check sent box 150 times)
3. Twitch (I really am a dickhead)
4. Panic (panic)
5. Plan (sign up for the witness protection program)

I have no other advice for this situation. There is nothing I can say or do to help you. It is like trying to counsel a dead person back to life. You can't. Instead I shall outline the types of email you wish you hadn't sent:

1. The Thumping Keyboard. Someone has pissed you off and you let them know. Like the American government, you're an armchair bomber firing off an email faster than a patriot missile

2. The Overtheline Flirt. You forget you're in a relationship. Is it betrayal? You counsel yourself out of the fact that you're having an affair because there are no bodily fluids involved.

3. The Dreaded FWD: You open a fwd message from person A which was written to them by person B. You as person C reply to the FWDed email which is sent to Person B, not Person A and now Person B knows that Person A is fwding you (person C) their (person B) emails. The equation is as follows: A (fwd) + C = B rooted.
