sorry

i do not like to be the one to say sorry when i have really nothing done anything wrong in the first place...if its my fault then i will even beg you to forgive me...my husband has a hard time saying sorry...but he knows that im mad at him or what...he just plays goofy like a fool tring his best to make me laugh and finally forgive him.

if you are wrong, then i would say yes, to be sorry you must admits your mistakes or faults. but saying sorry to put things to rest i don't do specaily if i am not at fault.

i think it doesnt matter who should say sorry first, but if it is your fault, you should be aware of that and accept that you are at fault and say or be sorry and then mean it when you say it.

If I enter into an argument with my better half and it goes on an one without any solution in site, I do not mind asking for an apology. I do not want while staying in a same room, we should have tensions and tense relations. If me asking for an apology makes the atomosphere coordial, I do not mind. I keep aside my ego, while doing so. If I say - I am sorry, it does not mean that I have lost the battle, I know in my heart of heart that I was right (sometimes I may be wrong also) and know that surrendering in a battle of attiration with partner does not mean that you have lost the battle or the other one has scored a victory.

it would definetly help to say a sorry. That too if it is between spouses, it would be a great SOOTHING effect, if your other partner tells the sorry first. EVEN if you are wrong. Same is the case with you too. Though you know well that he is wrong, better SAY THE SORRY first. he would be sorry for not being able to mend ways before hand. Goodluck. and happy happy family life.

i am the same like you.no i dont say sorry coz i know he is wrong.very seldom that i say sorry to him even its his fault!

I will readily say sorry to put an end to any misunderstanding so that I can be free and happy.I just cannot argue and hate arguing because I know that it won't take you anywhere

look at the real cause of the misunderstanding. Say sorry that you made him mad and explain why you've done that calmly. Maybe that would start a good and calm/peaceful conversation. Except if you have so much of a mountain of pride that you can't do that. Swallowing your pride would work even if it's a bit hard to do of course.

When I was married or in a relationship, I quite often said I was sorry just to end the battle even if I did not really feel I was wrong. Often our little arguments were about silly things really and getting close to him again usually was more important to me than being right. If it was an important issue, I'd wait till things cooled down and then try to talk with him on my feelings & concerns.

In this case, i think the one that says it first is somewhat privileged as this type of action shows that you have a good self esteem if you can say your sorry even when you are not guilty, thus making your partner also apologize. I read this in a book about how to be successful in life (not necessarily financially, but from all points of view) and i actually tried it with my girl, when i knew i did nothing wrong and she was the one that had to apologize and the effect was... well it worked

Just try to talk things out and meet halfway. If both of you kept on insisting that the other one is right and the other is wrong, then nothing positive will happen for the moment. Talk more diplomatically and open-mindedly this time. Good luck and I hope you well.

Life is too short to argue and then fret over it for a couple of days. I believe there are times when we realize that the topic of argument was too petty. Thats when we should let go of it and make the situation better. In this case if I would have to say a sorry to make things better, I would not hesitate in doing that. However, we shouldn't let anyone take us for granted ever in life, be it your partner, a friend or family.

If both of you are right then I think the best thing for you both to do is say sorry to each other and try to reach a compromise from both sides. you walk half the way and tell him it is his turn to meet you in the middle. Best of luck.

Sometimes people think that the first person to say sorry is admitting he/she is wrong, sometimes this might be true if the disagreement was an emotional argument and turned ugly with rude remarks. But if it is just a matter of difference of opinion then both should just let it rest a bit then try to sit and discuss the problems and find answers that are suitable to both partners. I know this is easier said than done, I am sorry if I sound like I am preaching:-) happy mylotting.

yes,i often say sorry to my wife,and my wife will forgive me, thanks for your discussion, i don't like the war from my wife,because i want quiet,what about you,are you first say sorry?

It can depend sometimes in a marriage. A lot of times arguments are just about who is right. Sometimes there can just be a difference of opinion and maybe nobody is really wrong. It can really cause a problem when two people are at odds about something and neither will give in. Then it just winds up a never ending battle. Saying sorry first says a lot for a person. Then you can just move on if possible.
