Letting a friend down: broken promises and spilled secrets, sentence 17

Calling yourself "useless" or "a terrible friend" after one mistake is unfair to yourself; you did a bad thing, you are not a bad person.

Who acts: Calling, you · What happens: call, be, do, not be · To what, where: yourself, bad thing, bad person · Speech: someone speaks here
