Have you ever been wronged by someone... and you just got so mad that you marched right up to them and demanded an apology. I did this today... I explained what an awful no good thing he had done... and then he said it: "I'm sorry." For some reason it didn't seem to change anything. It seems like if you have to demand an apology the apology doesn't mean as much. Do you agree?

well i never have been in such a situation where i could have the chance of actually walking up to the person and demanding an apology though i have been in real sticky situations at times but i got the apology without demanding it..... but there was this time when i was being over charged on my cell phone by my service provider...... and those guys werent of much help plus they put me on hold for over an hour and i got really irate.... so i hung up and called in again directly asked for the supervisor and demanded an apology for what the agent did to me and finally i did manage to get it !!

Good for you! Did an apology cut it, or did you expect something more. I would have!

I think the apology should come from the one who "wronged"... if they say sorry just for the sake of it or in your case, was confronted and demanded an apology from, then the apology was not sincere or meant at all.

Hey glords! I do agree with you and it is a shame! If someone has made you that angry and you have to demand an apology then you probably aren't going to really accept it because that would mean that the person didn't really know what they did in the first place! If you have to explain what someone did and ask them to apologize it kind of defeats the whole purpose and you of course won't be satisfied with their half azz apology! So you will either have to discuss it further to make the person understand exactly how you feel or let it go! And that will be your choice!~

Yes, I have had to demand an apology before and you're right, it doesn't mean anything if you have to demand it.
