I am not too proud to saying sorry if I have offended anyone even if that wasn’t my intent just a feeling that I might have offended someone would lead me to apologise.
What I find here and in the vanilla world is people are just unable to say it.
Why is this?
If you felt you had offended someone would you apologise?
Would you accept apologises?
Don't mind me I'm just ugly....... rolleyes
I'm always sorry
for everything
lp

I have already apologised to you! lol
Am I ever going to be forgiven?
Btw is that a new signature you have? :roll:

Hopefully best friends know you are without you even having to say it! wink
Hope it is accepted!

Finally...he talks some sense! :roll:
One of the hardest things to do, but one of the best things you can learn to do.
I think some are worthless personally. It a word that rolls off the tongue time an time again with ease from some people.... in some situations used to cover their own guilt and a cop out to get out of what they see as potential face to face conflict, that they don't want to deal with or resolve. Some are given far to late an too much damage done ever to go back!
If I bump into someone in the street, I say sorry as a matter of course - I mean it at the time yet think no more of it. Those encounters are with strangers, its more of a polite sorry.
I apologise meaningfully and sincerely - when I have truly been wrong or my actions have been out of order or impact on someone's life. I also give an explanation of what I'm apologising for and why and give the other person an opportunity to say how they felt by my actions etc.

I'm so with you on this anais.
I recently contacted someone I was good friends with until something happened that threw everything out of all proportion. We stopped speaking but I missed that friendship so much. I had no problem with apologising for anything I may have done that made matters worse and meant it. If I can't say sorry to someone and be 100% sincere then I won't say it at all.
Far too many people pay lip service to saying sorry and think it'll make everything all right.
It's a small word but carries huge impact biggrin
I always say sorry...but only if I am cool
Unfortunately some people see saying sorry as a sign of weakness.
On the subject of apologies, these were the first things that came to mind....
1)Theres a difference between saying sorry because you think you should....and other people thinking that you should .
2)Different scenarios demand different types of apology too.
3)What matters is the sincertey of the apology and what exactly one is apologising for.
4)Then again, one can apologise in good faith, and the recipient is too pig headed to accept the apology was sincere.
I could go on.....
personally, Im wondering what this thread is about...

I aplogised to someone on another thread yesterday, so thought I would start this up.
No other reason! wink
Thanks for the clarification.
Looking at it from the other side....how many people accept someone's apology TOO readily?
Someone could apologise to you and you can either accept it but pass it off( ie it's fine, no problem ) so not really mean it, you can accept it but clear the air properly to get things back on track or just turn your back on them and their apology.
It's easier to accept sorry than to say it and I'd bet most people would take the first way

I would always say sorry in good faith after thought and consideration for the other party, if I felt it wasn’t accepted them I believe there isn't much more you can do.
Take an example I had a friend once that I helped a lot, I helped her move on a few occasions, I decorated her house for her and because I missed a date with her to go out for a meal I was never forgiven. I apologised on a few occasions I called her a few times to sort this matter out, I met her at a BBQ and put my arms around her and said am I forgiven. Then to be shrugged off and ignored, to me now I can not be bothered to try anymore that’s it the end of a friendship in my mind. You shouldn’t have to work so hard in keeping a friend, I have others so I have moved on, yes it hurts but I guess it is her lose and not mine.
I would always accept an apology if I felt it was given in good faith.
