Do you say Sorry or rather saying a Sorry makes you ashamed?

Hello friend,I may say 'NO' to your question. As we all kown different person have different opinions.I think the lady may be fell shy for being looked by you.We could not be unilateral for others.

Yeah, I do think that we should apologize when we do something wrong. That's not a shame. If everyone can do it ,a more harmonious world willbecome.

yah! if its my fault

As years and centuries pass ,people are turning into more selfish and cruel people.I find many losing the sense of humanity and morality and taking the wrong path in life due to the various problems in their life.Kindness & love have become scarce and slowly might become extinct if all the people don't realise their importance very soon.SORRY is one of the golden words which these days people find hard to part with ,they are very stingy when it comes to saying sorry,I've noticed.

Hi if mistake is from my side, defenetly i say sorry. I dont hesitate or feel ashamed to say soryy. If the mistake is not mine, i expect the same from the other person too. As we have to maintain ethics and values as we are human beings. Thanks BHA

The people become more and more selfishly, they do not so sorry even as he know he is wrong.there little understanding and little including.

Wow, reading your story, it's quite sad to see that instead of being the 'model' since she's a lot older, she didn't even say her excuses for hitting the guy. I guess she didn't think it was necessary, but it's really not normal. Else, the old lady must have felt she didn't hit him that hard or was thinking of something else. What did the others say?

She should said sorry before you left the scene. She has no moral standard, and she should be punished. At least, catch her and make her pay for the medication cost. She has to apologize somehow, and express her regret on that incident.

I say sorry with sincere apology when i meant to especially if the problem result from my own mistakes. In case of the feeling of being ashamed like in this kind of scenario in a class the teacher call a student and no one bother to reply then she call a silent type student when she could not reply the teacher says she should say this word like, i am a bad girls, sorry. The is the cases when having to say sorry becomes an insult.

There's nothing to be ashamed in uttering the sorry word. It's more shameful if one won't even ask for forgiveness. In your situation, maybe the lady just missed to say sorry because she's in a hurry or maybe she even missed to feel that she hit somebody. Sometimes when we're in a hurry we really couldn't sense everything in our way. But still I know the lady was wrong. God forgive her. shadow41

I sorry when I'am sorry, I'm not ashamed of it, I just think I bad I would feel if I didn't say I'm sorry to someone and maybe they aren't here tomorrow.

i say im sorry if i feel i need to just out of respect

no shame in speaking and It takes a stronger person to admit it or say it. We all have our moments and it is good to know when one is wrong and knowing helps to make it right...

What I find is people are too wrapped up in their own lives and have this mentality that the world owes them well they need to wake up and smell the coffee because they may have had a hard life but guess what someone else has had it harder and don`t expect the world to pave their way. Also I find that not many people are very paitient this I can with authority as I am a single mother to an 8 year old boy with autism and he screeches and screams or he plays roughly without meaning to either me or my mother are there constantly reminding him to play quietly or play gentle watch for the little ones etc. and every now and then we will come accross someone so ignorant that they cuss in my sons face. Point and fact my son was about five and we were in an elevator and a woman in a wheelchair was on too and my son was asking her why she was in the wheel chair instaed of saying something like I can go faster than you or whatever she very rudely said you sure do ask a lot of questions, now that is the way to spread ignorance and resentment to people that have different disablities.

Why would anyone be ashamed to admit they've made a mistake? We all do it, all the time! Of course I make a sincere apology when an apology is in order!

saying sorry shouldnt anyone feel ashame but should feel good because it shows you or they can admit to own mistakes.

I think that saying sorry just comes easier to some than others. Nobody is proud to have to say that they are sorry. Saying you are sorry means you have wronged someone. Now you owe them an apology. Pride is not always an easy obstacle to overcome to admit to saying you are sorry. I've never felt ashamed to say I'm sorry, but I have been ashamed when I didn't admit to something when I was wrong.

It's human nature to make mistakes. It is not okay to just walk away though. I would have said something to the lady. That is just rude. She probably did not do it on purpose, but she still should have aplogized. She must be an interesting person to live with.

There is no harm in saying sorry. Rather it will depict your sense of ethics, your education. I personally never feel ashamed of telling sorry. Saying sorry is a daily part of our social bondages. Many a times saying this small word "sorry" helps me. Thank you.

i really say sorry for those strangers people.. i also say sorry to my family.. sometimes i say sorry to my family through giving their some accessory to make them feel special for me...
