In your marriage..

I wouldn't say we both apologise... we never (very very rarely) get into an argument... but when we do the one for whom we are arguing makes up by two simple little words... I'm Sorry. Those words can go so far, they are as powerful as I Love You.

I will apologize if I'm in the wrong. I won't apolozie if it is his fault. Over apologize make him take things for granted.

I find that we "both" are a little on the hardheaded side. When we both think that we are right, we neither one want to apologize. If, however; I see that I am wrong then I will say Im sorry. One of the main issues in my marriage is that my hubby dont really see wrong in a lot of the things that he does.....well, not until after the fight and he is able to see my feelings and such.

I'm not married. However, when I was married I don't remember about the apologies. My feeling about apologies is that as long as you're sincere and think you've done something that calls for an apology, apologize. When I send an email to all my friends and someone comments that it's racist (in this case it was a joke about an Amish farmer and a muslim), I send an email to everybody apologizing for sending it. When hurtful words are said, the one saying them might forget, but the one hearing them might not. No one is perfect and never will be -- and I think when you realize you've said or done something hurtful -- and you're sorry -- apologize. If not your husband, at least you'll feel better for having made amends.

It would depend on the fight. My hubby and I are both hot tempered ( of course he swears he isn't). Generally, if it's just a run of the mill fight, we will have it out, be mad for awhile and then eventually just start talking. He is the one that usually starts talking to me first, because I am very stubborn LOL. We both say things that we don't mean if it's a real heated arguement. We usually apologize for that because they are generally very hurtful things. Eva

Well am the first to apologize even if i feel am right. Becoz this is a beautiful relation of marriage and the sweetness is giving more of love, so in love, forgiving and apologizes add more beauty.

My husband used to be like that...but when he realized that it was important to me that he apologized and I didn't rub it in that I wanted an apology, he started apologizing. It was hard for him at first and I didn't give him a hard time. I just gracefully accepted the apology and let things go.

I didn't use to, but my husband does when he is wrong. So it's only fair that I do that too when I'm wrong. i am more apologetic to other people sometimes, but now I know it's not fair. after all I love him so I should apologize after hurting him.

I don't function well after an arguement and always have to come back to it and sort it out, even if its a small one. Either we apologise right there and then and or go away, think about it and come back and talk it over until we are in some kind of agreement or that we are both happy and satisfied with the outcome. Some of the time he apologies first as he comes to realise that he is NOT always right, even though he thinks he is 100% of the time. I have a quick temper and am learning to control it a lot more. Because my husband is so patient and doesn't raise his voice, he is able to calm me down quickly so that we can sort it out then and there instead of letting it brew for a day or two. I can't sleep when we haven't sorted things out.

I am not married, but I have had a lot of experiences with having to say that I apologize. I have also had a lot of people come back and apologize to me. I have got to tell you, when a person apologizes to me, it makes me feel so much better about what went wrong. It lets me know that they care about my feelings enough to try and make things right. I also feel better when I apologize. Because I know that it makes the person that I care about feel the same way that I do when they apologize to me. I do not feel that there is anything wrong with apologizing or even asking for one. Whatever it takes to bring you back together in harmony should be done.

My husband and I both apologize. He more easily than me. I tend to hold a grudge and stay angry longer than he does. I try not to say anything I might regret later when we are arguing though. One the hurtful words are said you cant really take them back.
