Do you admit your fault?

Whenever I’m in an argument with my husband, I have a hard time admitting some of my mistakes. I would always come up with reasons which I think is reasonable. How about you do you have the guts to accept your mistake?

it's kinda hard.. but if i really feel that i hurt him because i was the one who committed mistake... i sit beside him and sincerely apologize, and do some hugging and kissing-- gee?

Yes, after a hard reasoning, if I felt I hurt him, I do feel guilty. Im not that hard I do say sorry sometimes…: )

..hi.. I do.. I accept my faults.. and I apologize to my husband.. but not all the time.. sometimes, I also become very reasonable that I don't accept my fault.. Sometimes, I just keep insisting that he was at fault not me..

When I am at fault, i will admit it. I will say that I am at fault. It's something that I really have a difficult time doing.

Yes I admit my fault because I 'm scared that if I will be caught I will be in greater trouble. And he easily find out when I'm hiding something from him . When I've done something wrong, he can easily noticed it, maybe because I'm a transparent person or he knew me better that I can't hide something from him.

Well,it's not easy to admit our fault esp when we know that it will surely give the other person satisfaction. But,we must admit our fault,it won't harm us at all. I admire people who admits their faults and says sorry after. I also try to practice such attitude,and it won't make me feel less,but it gives me inner peace though.

I think that humans in general find it hard, when in the heat of the moment, to admit that they are really wrong and back down from defending themselves. It is afterall, humans' instinct to defend and survive. I also think that it is worse for those people do not realize what they are doing in an argument because they will never know when to stop, take a look at themself and admit that they are in the wrong. It's a good thing you realize this so that you can work towards having better communication with your husband. As for myself, I used to argue non-stop just to prove that my point is right. But I realize this wasn't very healthy and tried to take a look at myself first before arguing out my point to see if I'm really in the wrong or am being accused. If I'm wrong, I stop and say sorry. It's not always easy though. =/

You’re right; it’s not always easy it’s tough.

Both me and my future husband don't like long argument because it will stress us so much that even it can make us cry and hurt. Though it does takes time, but I do try to admit everytime we argue but only if the fault was really mine. If it was his fault then I will argue until he admit, it is the same for him towards me. But sometimes it's hard for me to admit my fault to different people lol, because the way they accuse me is just not the same as the people who really close to me handle it, so I tend to defence myself more.

Yes, i admit most of my faults because I don't want others to be accused of something that they did not do. I wish a lot people were like that. But we are born with an instinct to preserve our self so i guess that i the reason why other people are not doing it.
