Is it hard for you to say you're sorry? Have you ever been in the situation where you was wrong or it was your fault and was still difficult for you to admit you're sorry? Im not proud to say it but this is me.Im too proud ,too stubborn and most of the times i regret the fact that i cant just say im sorry even though i was wrong. Do any of you know what or how can i possibly just admit when im wrong or/and im sorry?

If i have ever done anything wrong or have said something that i did not mean or have even said something in anger i will always say sorry.When i do say sorry i do mean the words.Yet my husband never admits that he is ever in the wrong and if he has said or done something wrong he creeps round me rather than having to say that he is sorry.It is ok for people to say sorry but sometimes i wonder how many people mean what they are saying.

Well since i have this sorry feeling in my soul i think i would really mean it but is just that i cant say it and i dont understand why.My partner is the same as me.I figured that if he would be the opposite of me maybe it would make it more easy for me. Thank you for posting, jugsjugs.

Not at all. If I do anything wrong then I will apologize without any hesitation. But if I do the right then I will not say sorry at any cost..........

It's not that hard for me to say I'm sorry but when I say it I really mean it. For some they just throw the word out and not mean it.

As far as I am concenred, I have post a topic just a similar as yours. I think we should and have the courage to say "I'm sorry" which is a so easy and short sentence for us. But just there are some people are difficult to say that from their mouths. Why? Do they have no courage? I think it may be the case. If the can say "I 's sorry" ,I think a lot of things may be dealt easily.

I find it's easier to admit and say your sorry than explaining the mistake after the fact. If people and workers found out and you didn't admit to it that usually ends up bad. So just take a deep breathe and admit to it but don't do the mistake over and over again. It shows that you willing to learn from your mistakes.

I think you are giving much to much value to those three words I am sorry. You can say this if you even have a small regret, it doesn't have to be a big deal, I am sorry can mean as little as I am sorry yuo are upset, or I am sorry I stepped in front of you, or I am sorry for anything I have done to you. It dosen't have to mean I am sorry I dropped the A Bomb. I am sorry can mean something in your mind and something entirely different in the person's mind who is receiving the message.

Sometimes, I just say sorry to prevent any more conflict or trouble, even if I do not mean it deep down inside. I don't really have any issues about being stubborn, so I can usually just say sorry even if I do not necessarily mean it

Easy for me to say sorry if ive done wrong, and also i say sorry even if i know i was right just for the sake of not having a quarrel and argument , bcos i think when time comes this person realizes he was wrong he would come back to me and say sorry...and its his shame..but there are times im stubborn when i do know i am right and i want the person to know that i am right...and he needs to know that i am right..Have a nice day!!!

i think that the difficult to say "sorry" its depend on the situation you were. of course, in ones its easier than others, but i think thats the problem is that we are humans, and sometimes we act like a stubborn person, and sometimes we cant recognize our mistakes.

Sometimes I have the same feeling with you,when I do something wrong especially my friend,I wont admit my fault,because it is shame for me and I will not face up the reality As the time goes by,I know the true meaning of friendship gradually A friend in need is a friend in deed wo should show our inclusive to,the early the better

If anyone makes mistake or fault then there is nothing to tell sorry. Its common because mistakes are made by everyone and so telling sorry is not wrong or a big thing.

Im not gonna lie, when I first start training it was hard to say it. But after a while, It became, for me at least, a sign of power. Thanks to my trainers!

I think I am person who did not hard to say sorry if there is really my fault.Sometimes, someone was offended because I told something about him.And I came to his home and say sorry because I would not like our relationship be broken.But it feel difficult if they would not like to forgive us.

It's true to say I'm sorry if you done a great wrong doing to others like hurting them. Jesus said Love your enemy...forgave others because you hurt someone & you said sorry for my wrong doings.

Hi alinka,it is not hard for me to say sorry,anyway,no one is perfect,I must apologize first because I can't bear no words between my friend and me.so I think you must encourage yourself to admit mistakes, say "I'm sorry",it is not so hard,and everything will get better.Good luck.

ya its a usual thing for every one to experience it...knowing though the mistake is on our side we refuse to ask sorry...it makes you feel hard to say sorry to some one.. but its wrong and its not a good attitude..lets try to change ourself

No, this is not hard to say sorry for me because I feel that if I' wrong I can say sorry because if I don't say and I feel that I'm wrong then after some time I will feel re great for this and I feel like guilt so I don't want to be guilty.
