Dear Harriette [Cole]: I got married about 15 years ago, but the marriage didn't work out, and we broke up on bad terms. We both did hurtful things to each other. Anyhow, even though time has passed and both of us have remarried, I continue to feel bad about how I treated him. Is it too late to make amends?<p>-- Ann, Washington, D.C.<p>Ann: It's never too late to say you're sorry. I know that sounds cliche, but it's really true. The fact that you have continued to feel guilt about what transpired years ago means that you should address it. What's more, there's a good chance that your ex-husband may be harboring remnant feelings of hurt, remorse or anger.<p>Why not start off the year by communicating with him -- either in person or through a letter?
