...why is it so hard to simply say, "I'm sorry. I was wrong and I apologize"?

People have the hardest time doing this. And they'll dance and juke and make up all kinds of stories to rationalize poor behavior, digging themselves deeper and deeper, making themselves look like a bigger ass than they did in the beginning. All this, when a simple, "I'm sorry. I was wrong" would have put the matter to rest.

I will never understand this as long as I live.

I have absolutely no problem with saying I'm wrong when I am. I'm sure there was a time when this happened.

I thought the last time you were wrong what when you thought you were wrong, but you weren't really wrong at all...:confused:

I #### up all the time and have never had a problem admitting it. I think I apologize more than anyone I know. I'm trying to teach my husband that apologizing doesn't make him a kitty.

I learned this lesson the very hard way and lost a big chunk of my life in the bargain. If I had just not let my pride get in the way nor let others influence me that way. Never again.

I'm not afraid now to say that I was wrong nor apologize for doing something to hurt or make somebody mad. I probably apologize TOO much now and for things that probably don't need apologies. Life is way too short and sweet to hold onto false pride or to hold grudges. :yay:

I agree - but just wait until you run into somebody who insist your not sorry or not sorry enough. :tap: That will knock your socks off and really tear into your skin.

Actually, it's migtig, and that's only your opinion. As for apologies, that too is a matter of opinion and perspective. I've apologized before, but I feel no need to apologize just because someone else expects me too. I apologize when I mean it, otherwise it's a lie.

I have no problem in apologizing when I am wrong. There is nothing wrong with admitting that you made a mistake. Apologize and move on.:dance:
