Fake apologies

Tweet

Does it bother you when someone hurts you and you are trying to explain why you're hurt and it turns into an argument and finally they say "I'm sorry" in a really snotty way that doesn't sound like they're sorry at all but just trying to get you off their back? I think apologies that don't sound sincere are not really apologies at all. I'm sure I've been guilty of doing this as well, but when you are on the receiving end of this kind of fake apology, it doesn't do much for me. I guess to me the point of an apology is to admit that you have hurt the other person, let them know that you feel bad about it, and acknowledge that you're going to try not to do it again.
