Well I have a little petty quarrel with my hubby and I just realized I was wrong, thus I wanna make up in some other ways. I'm thinking of buying him a new shirt and wrap it nicely, cook early dinner and I will call him to come home early. And the rest of my strategy will be secret....lols! How bout you? How would you make up after the so-called lover's quarrel?

YOu know over dinner just say honey you know I'm sorry and you were right. As much as I know you know I hate to addmit you were right. That is what I do. But then I'm never wrong. lol I get flowers. not as much anymore my friend told me he can't keep buying me flowers everytime I'm right and he is wrong. So yes a shirt is fine unless you want to get him flowers. That is what men do. lol.

Hahahha! Well some guys like flowers too and not us women alone. Well whatever they maybe, those are just tokens to somehow mellow the situation and just the same the most important part would be to say sorry and let him/her feel the gesture...the loving way.

Like most said, a simple "I'm sorry I think you were right" is a must. Besides that, everything else is a good bonus but that should not happen on the relationship just because you had a quarrel. The idea you gave was not a bad suggestion though... HAVE fun with and after the dinner... :) (Green smile)

Your idea is good...as a way of saying sorry. Maybe for the things said, for the things done. But before doing that, begin it by saying sorry, and talking about the topic. This way, the pain, anger or hurt that your husband feels will be gone. Admitting that you are wrong is the best thing that you can do. And all your strategy, is a good way to make up for the fights. It is a way to wipe any stain of that quarrel and be loving couples again. Good luck to you.

I would prefer to sit down next to my partner, take their hand in mine, look them in the eye and simply apologize. Rewarding them because I messed up just doesn't seem right to me.

It's not actually a reward that I will give, but since he's fond of shirts I am thinking of what would make him at least happy while I say my sorry. Giving something not necessary valuable is a show of affection and not necessarily bribing. But I like your way of touching to make things straight. I know 'touch' does have that magical feeling that goes beyond words. Thanks for the tip.
