Hey @redhead thats completely fine! Welcome to the chat ahah 🙂

"the person is more important than the problem" thats an awesome way to look at it ... and I think that's very true because you need to ignore any pride or ego you have ...

A time when was was truely sorry was when I was when I was really close friends with two girls. and I somehow became sortof more then friends with both of them but I didnt mean to, and it ended just as badly as it sounds! I dont think I rarely apologised more for and been so sorry for putting myself in a stupid situation.

 

Something good I learnt is that friendship is more important to me then intimacy 🙂  Lost a good friend, learnt a lesson!

When people realise they have made a mistake or done something wrong they usually apologise. Is it ever appropriate to reject an apology?

 

yeah similar to @redhead I think if it is serious and particularly if it something that is happening multiple times, if its not okay then you need to send that message to them.

 

But  i think there is a nice way of rejecting an apology and sending a message, and a mean way. have to be careful we arent being to harsh especially if someone had good intentiosn nad perhaps just misread the situation or misjudged.

Hey guys!

 

This is my first Getting Real session so I'm pretty excited.

The last time I had to say sorry to someone in a real way was to my close friend. It was important for me to say sorry because I valued our friendship and didn't want to lose something that meant alot to me.

Welcome everyone 😄

Tell us about the last time you had to say sorry to someone in a real way - why was it important?

Last time I had to apologise to someone with the most genuine intentions was to my mum!
It was real because of all the emotions and basically the regret involved in it ...
it was important because she means the world to me and it's a huge downer to see her upset!!
