I agree with you to a certain extent in that I don't accept apologies very easily, as I believe the person should've thought about what they were saying or doing before they did it, and shouldn't have to apologise.
However, I do have to accept that other people can be impulsive and don't always think before they act - unlike me, I never rush into any decision about what I'm going to say or do.
EG I went out with my bf for 6 years before getting married, waited 8 years before deciding to have a baby, etc.
To maintain your relationships you should apologise if you hurt someone or you will end up very lonely. I have a very rotten mother and my father always said that her main fault was that she never apologised when she was wrong. But then again, she's never wrong coz she says one thing one day, and the exact opposite the next.
Is it normal That I Don't Believe In Saying I'm Sorry?
