Welcome,
and you can ask all your questions here. Please feel free to ask, and feel comfortable. No question is offensive unless offense is the intention.
God is forgiving and God wants us to be forgiving.

The friends of God will certainly have nothing to fear, nor will they be grieved. Al Quran 10:62

Islam means peace, to be at peace with yourself and your surroundings. If you think you've remotely offend someone, try and make peace with them. There were 3 types of sins that I was thought a while back, one against oneself, the second against others , and the third against Allah's commandments. To me, to be ignorant of something means you were not aware of or the consequences it may cause of whatever it was at the time. Once you became aware of it, and has full knowledge of its impact and your own contribution to it, then you do your best to make peace and amend.Allah forgives over and over, if He can, we are surely able to do the same. Although,depending on the circumstances, your friend may chose not to forgive you (not compel to), that's when you  turn to Allah for forgiveness.

We love islam more than ourselves but at the same time Allah commands us to be patient, like Allah says in ch 41 v 34 that no doubt bad deed can't equal good deed, always repel bad deed with good and then you will see your enemy had become your best friend.Allah in ch 16 v 125 of Quran says invite people to the way of lord with beautiful words and preachings and argue with them in best possible peaceful manner.
