Ok so this is something that i have struggled with so i would like male and female opinions.
To me i think an apology is something that is given when your actions whether intentionally or unintentionally hurt or disrespected the other person your with. No matter how big or how small the situation. I think that it doesn't take much to apologize and mean it and it works wonders for stopping a fight. I'd rather apologize and talk about the problem then argue about why the apology is valid or not and why the person is feeling that way. That can come after when the person isnt feeling that way anymore. We can go back and adress why I felt that way in the first place.
What do you guys think. If the other person does not think they should apologize do you think that is pride? It's easy to fall victim to pride and talk yourself into being right in any situation. If two people have different perspectives and one wants an apology and the other doesn't feel one is needed or should be given, whos at fault? Should i not need an apology because the other person thinks its an insignificant matter or should the other person apologize because it hurt/ disrespected you. From that same scenario should i work on and wonder why this disrespected/hurt me to change that and the other person work to apologize no matter the situation.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
What (if any) compromise can be reached if you find your self in this situation. Should ending it be an option if this is persistent. Is it worth staying in if one persona wants an apology and the other wont give it? Is there a such thing as apologies taking something away from the person giving it or is that pride talking. I know that this is how small problems turn into big ones by not giving sincere apologies or being able to give/receive them.
Everybody view of different situations depends on their experiances
Please let me know your thoughts and opinions
