it is human nature.we tend to blame others for the mistakes we make.are you the same too?for me, i usually anaylze the whole situation before starting to blame.actually,i think that it is no use crying over spilt mlik.what is done cannot be undo.we should try to solve the problem together instead of blaming each other.what do you think?

No. I don't blame others for the mistakes I made. I often blame myself, because most of the times we are really the one responsible for all our decisions in life. Although sometimes we are influence by other people like our family and friends. But in the end we always have the last decisions in our hand. It depend on us if we will follow their side or we just go ahead with what we want.. We are always responsible for all our actions and decisions in life.

Oddly when i make a mistake,i blame myself for it and when someone else makes a mistake related to me,i still blame myself for it!...if i lie,i cruely blame myself for lieing,and if someone lies to me,i don't blame them for lieing and i do blame myself for believing their lie,i blame myself if i don't do my friends a favor they asked me to do,and if they don't do anything for me,i blame myself and tell myself''i must have asked them for some illogical or hard for them to do''.....i am hard on myself i know but it is just me

It depends on the situation on which the mistake took place. I do blame myself for some of the mistakes I had. It is very natural to blame others, but I don't blame them instantly, sometimes I keep it to myself thinking that if the same would happen again then that person should pay for it.

I think that life is learning and we all make mistakes. I try to take responsibility for my wrongs, admit them to myself, and others if necessary and then learn from them so I don't repeat them. I don't think we gain anything by placing blame.

I think that you are on the right track. I feel that tooo many people tend to focus on the blame instead of just fixing the problem. Blame is a very important part of life. I think that it goes along with the fact that people don't ever want to feel like they have failed at something. I notice that with a lot of divorced parents, the focus way to much on blaming things on the other person instead of looking at the situation and taking action. Making the other person feel bad about themselves so they can feel great. Which is just sick. But that is just my 2 sense
