Having trouble adjusting to corporate?

Today, I told a coworker that I felt hurt by something that she said. She got up really upset and told me that I was sensitive and then later apologized and we hugged and move forward.

Later I got asked to go to our managers office and he said that I need to follow policy which is to report a situation to him because it could have been avoided.

Now I feel like a fool.

I wanted to talk to my coworker rather than reporting her because I didn’t want for her to feel betrayed however I must follow policy which is something that I’m new to.

Anyone have any advice or kind words for me?
