Someone who doesn't know how to say sorry, or someone who always say sorry?

I think both of them is worse in a certain level. A person who does not know how to say sorry is to proud to accept his/her mistake and down want to step back and accept his/her mistake. while the person who always says sorry and doesn't really mean the true meaning is useless he/she says sorry for the sake of saying it and that is not fair.

I don't like people who doesn't know how to say SORRY, but once they've said it I hope they really mean it.

yep, it's sad that for some people it's becoming an expression like 'i love you'.

Someone that does not know how to say sorry. If a person says sorry often, it could mean that they are sympathetic. If if a person never says sorry, it could mean that they have no feeling for another person besides themselves.

I think both are equally as bad. I can only handle these kinds of people in small doses. I like to maintain a happy medium with my apologies. I do often say 'sorry' for things that aren't even my fault. But it's a feeling of sympathy, not taking fault in the situation.

i agree they are both as bad. it's just alarming that the word 'sorry' is now becoming an expression like 'i love you', always said but not meant.

I think that they are equally bad for their own reasons: not knowing how to say sorry is bad because admitting when you are wrong or have done something wrong and feeling bad for it is a necessary thing if you care about someone, and saying sorry too much takes the meaning out of the word so it becomes useless and unbelievable- both accomplish nothing.

what i meant with saying sorry over and over is doing the same mistake over and over. that's really hurtful coz it seems the person doesn't learn and just inflict you the same pain repeatedly. isn't that worse than someone who does not say sorry?

I would have to say someone who always says sorry. How do you respond to a constant stream of sorrys? It get a little awkward at times. I've been around people like that and it's highly annoying.

irritating indeed, especially if they are saying it about the same mistake, sigh.
