Usually the first moved has to say sorry to another after a huge quarrel. Are you peacemaker ? Will you say sorry first? Is that often?

actually, i'm a peacemaker because i dont want huge quarrel, i would like to have peace talking than yelling to each other..yes, i say sorry first so that the conversation will not lead to a huge quarrel, though it's really hurting me so much but atleast it will end peacefully..

Depends if he was the one who started the fight but usually,he's the root of the fight.But we mend things up in a short while.We don't keep grudges for long but one exception was when his parents were mean to me and he tolerated that.But this time,he promised me that it won't happened again which I hope is true.

Yes, it will be only me who will initiate the peace making. It will be only me who will say sorry and go for a compromise. But as we dont quarrel often, peace making is also not very often.

Years ago,I won't.But now actually I will, because I love him.And I find it's easier for me to say sorry than to keep angry and boring.Usually owing to the apology,we will live more happily and peacefully.

Yes I will. In love, we should learn to swallow our pride and be humble. We should reach out to our partner all the time. It doesn't matter whose fault was that. What's important is to settle the argument before the day ends.

I'll only say I'm sorry first IF I was in the wrong...if I wasnt though, I'm not saying it..why should I?

I've always want to make peace with my spouse, she is kind of heady so even if I know she is wrong, I just had to say sorry and then pass my comment just for her to see my point. But this does not happen all the time as there are times I'll demand her apology when she is very wrong.

I am a peacemaker but I don't necessarily say sorry first. What I usually do is explain my side very clearly for my partner to understand why I acted differently. If it's my fault though, I say sorry right away. But if it's not mine, I won't do it first of course. I will let my partner do it for herself. It's a way to show humility.

Whenever i commit something I always say sorry because i dont have or want to wait for an apology if somebody too do the same thing.

It depends. If I was wrong and the person who qurreled with me is my beloved one, I do. If not, I will keep silence for him or her until I was moved.
