which one do you think is harder to do? As for me it's the first one, since I prefer to express my gratitude through actions, not words. What about you?

I believe it's harder to say sorry especially when you've done something wrong and you're just too proud to admit it. Pride is sometimes annoying when it gets in our way, don't you think? And also, I've never had a hard time saying 'thank you' to anyone. So I think it really is much harder to say 'sorry' than 'thank you'. Happy myLotting! :)

As for me saying sorry is harder to me.when I need to express my gratitude,I will say thank you and appreciate through actions.It's easy!My feeling is also very good.But when i say sorry to others,i am very dejected.since i admit i make a mistake.It seems difficult to say it out.

i think saying sorry is harder cause it hurts our pride. specially if you will say sorry to the person that you don't like or even truly when you have done something wrong to them.

i believe that its harder to say sorry because that shows that you are actually admitting that you made a mistake in the first place.

For me, it is harder to say sorry than thank you. I like thanking people for whatever they did that helped or benefited me. On the other hand, I am a very proud person. So it is harder for me to eat humble pie, apologize, and admit I am wrong. That is why I seldom say sorry, unless it really is a big mistake I made.

For me it's harder to say sorry. I say thank you very often whenever someone helps me or give their co-operations in getting things done. Although that may be just some simple things, but i'll be grateful to those people who've helped me, and i'll say 'thank you' with gratitude and smile to them. On the other hand, i do not say sorry very often compared to 'thank you'. I only apologize when i know i'm really wrong and i will mean it. I think many people will feel a bit hard to say sorry too, maybe it's because saying sorry will be meaning he or she had done something wrong, and they will feel some kind of upset in themselves.
