[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As to the general question posed by OP, the answer has to be "yes" ... there are things even an apology won't fix. Not necessarily in OP's example because I think that is pretty benign. Too many people do horrid things to other people for long periods of time and think an insincere "I'm sorry" will fix it. It won't. I just had this happen. Person treated me coldly and dismissively for more than 20 years. When someone else brought it up I was sent a performative "[b]IF [/b]I hurt you, I'm sorry..." Nope. Not falling for it. [/quote] Yes, the "if" I did something, the "I'm sorry BUT," the "I'm sorry YOU FEEL THAT WAY," all of those are BS apologies. Honestly, after 20 years of being treated badly, I'm not sure even a very sincere apology would work for me. That's pretty hard to walk back. [/quote]
