are you ever too proud to apologize first

I am never too proud to apologize or ask for forgiveness especially in a relationship. Most relationships fail because of that. I always take time to reflect and see if I was truly wrong and if I feel I was, then I apologize sincerely.

well ..in my opinion i think men are not perfect for everything so,we can do thing wrong by intiontional and unintentional,however if we did it and realize it that wrong we have to accept it and apologize for that ...i mean thinnk it over then make a dicide ...notthing to be ashame of being first apologize...

Well, i dont think that there is any shame or embarassment if you are the first person to realize ur mistake make the first move to aplogize. A relationship will never work if both the persons remain strict with their egos. I dont feel proud to be the first person to apoloze but then it gives me a sense of satifaction that i didnt end up at the wrong note. I am not talking about any incident with my girlfriend(don't have any), but there was one incident that happened with me last year. I was at the bowling alley and had booked one lane for me to play along with my friend. Since, it was crowded and I had to wait for my turn to come. The person asked me to wai for 15 mins. After 15 mins i went back to him, he asked me to wait more. After another 15 mins, the person asked me to wait for another 15 mins. I got angry now and got into a serious argument with that person. After playing the game, I realized that the person is too elder to me and i shouldn't have talked to him the way i did. i went back to him and apologised for my rude behaviour. I dont feel proud of it, but atleast i feel relaxed that atleast that person doesn't have any bad feelings against me..

well if i am at fault i wouldn't think twice but say sorry to the person i i offended. saying sorry and being sincere with your apology counts a lot. don't say sorry if you are just doing it for the sake od saying sorry to the person. at time we are to pround on certain issues but being humble and acknowledge our wrong doings doesnt make us less of a person. hope this helps!!! have a great night too!!!

well, i admit that i'm a proud person. But if i'm wrong, i will just apologize to that person. It's my personality, it maybe involves one's morality issue..Be kind and a person who dares to admit mistakes. Look, if you dare not to say sorry to her. What's gonna happen between you and your girlfriend? Have you ever thought about it? you do really wanna talk to her, but you can't lay down your face, how can you open your mouth? how can you just ...keep the relation between you two? Sometimes an apology can solve all the problems. And your apology can show your deep love and your attach importance to her. And then she's gonna feel happy.You can make your relation deeper, why not?

words are just words they mean nothing. What does it mean to be sorry?? When people apologize they usually do it so the other person will get over it and won't be mad anymore. That's why i could care less if someone apologizes to me. I much rather talk to the person about what happened and hear their feelings on the subject instead the regular "I'm sorry". Since i don't care for apology i usually don't apologize. When i do, i only do it once and i try to change to show they i'm different and that i really was sorry.

no i am not like that, while most of the time my partner is the one to say sorry or to admit that he was wrong, i am never caught not apologizing if i have done something wrong to hurt someone, especially if the person is important to me, i would never go to sleep without making up for the time we argued, etc.

For me it very much depend on the situation and who it is dealing with, there are people that with certain situations where I am do the extent that I don't want them to get the I told you so attitude or that they were right. There are certain things that I will never let some people know I was wrong on for the simple fact that it would be shoved down my throat. But in most situations I can apologize when I should.

firstly, what is more important to you- Your Love OR Your self pride. See like you said, that you are sorry but you dont want to admit it and you want to talk to your girlfriend and miss her BUT your self pride is comming in the way. But why are you hiding your feelings from her, when you are sorry just let her know. Not saying sorry is hurting you and might be hurting her too. Why all this hurt when you love each other and miss each other so much. Should never waste time on silly things when you two love each other so much. Tell her what you feel and finish off with it. What is happening now is that your self pride is taking control over you and Love is taking a back seat. love is very important in life, give it its due importance. All the best, make an effort and say sorry it will not hurt any of you.

Well, I am proud to say "I'm sorry" to others if I know that I made something wrong.. Asking an apology isn't really hard for me do as long as I know that I cause something wrong or I had hurt that person so much.. But of course if I know that I shouldn't need to ask an apology, definitely I won't say "I'm sorry" because I know that I didn't do anything wrong to that person.. My conscience is clear and I don't have anything to be afraid of.. And besides why should I ask an apology if I didn't do anything wrong.. I think it is stupid to ask an apology when I don't do something wrong.. If that person won't talk to me the fine I don't care.. I only ask apology to those people I know that I had hurt and I did something wrong..

If I were the one who done wrong, I'm the one who will ask for that ofcourse. Because in a relationship, you should know how to accept and how to give and take...Sometimes, even my partner is the one who make a mistake, i'm the one who start to talk about it.Because I dont want to ruin our relationship just because of one mistake of each of us. In a relationship you must know how to swallow your PRIDE. because if not, your relationship will go wrong and you will ended up alone. We must also learn how to commit our mistake,unlike denying it to your partner. Remember the important thing is a relationship is trust. As you admit your mistake, you ask for forgiveness and your partner did'nt accept it, I think it's not your fault. You've done your part so it's time for your partner's part and that is to accept it. your only human and all of us commit mistakes. As long that you admit youre wrong, you ask for frgiveness(it must be from your heart!!!), believe me everything will turn's alright.

I've actually been told several times, by many different people that I apologize too often...Even for things that don't need apologizing, I just do for some reason...Kind of weird... -Mike

This is me apologizing to Boyfriend when I know I've hurt his feelings: "I'm sorry... but it's your fault." I'm being honest here. I am not one to apologize first. Stubbornness and pride run in our clan. This is how I know Boyfriend loves me very much. He has gone through a lot just by being with me. It doesn't mean I love Boyfriend less. I know when I need to apologize and it should come from the heart. Just takes a while to get there. Boyfriend and I have an unspoken rule: Kiss and make up at the end of the day. Always go to bed happy that you're with the one you love.

Apology can melt everyone's heart...though how angry she or he was...hearing an apology will definitely erase all anger and doubts, esp. in relationship.. When we are wrong, we have to know how to say sorry(heartily).If we love the person very much...it's not hard to say sorry...We should say sorry while there is still time to say so..we might wake up..finding that the "someone"we love is not there anymore to listen to our apology...

Its better to volunteer an apology first and deal with the situation easily and effectively. I always do this and get it over with. Leaving something like this to the other person is too likely to result in them dealing with you rather than you dealing with them. Or the wound will fester.

well,if i was the one who did wrong maybe i would be the first to apologize..it depends on the couple and to the situation.:) if it's not that big issue maybe don't wait till it gets bigger coz we might never know how it flows.:)

Hi friend,I am proud to apologise if I am wrong.Apologising makes the other person feel comfortable and its good for the relationship too.Nothing wrong in apologising when you make mistakes.Thanks for sharing.Have a great day.Happy mylotting.

depends on the situation and who I am dealing with...

Apologizing first does not reduce your pride in fact.making your girl be happy is your responsibility. as a man ,saying i am sorry first ,this will releive unhappiness ,it is worthful.there is not real pride in lovers ,if you want to be proud ,please do well in your job and achieve more from working.Pride is a thing outside of house ,and your girl is in your house ,you might do anything of course including say sorry first to make the house peace and happy. Be honest, it is an idea from a womam .

hai no one is proud to apologize first its because ego matters status matters and everything matters but a person who cares others apologize first its because he needs his or hers relation to be continued and to prove his affection to them and afterall its better personality to apologize first
