How do you say sorry to someone you hurt?
I was being a brat the other day; with me running a fever and having a terrible headache. I made one person to be mad at me. My insensitivity had caused a huge fight. How do you say sorry? What are the different ways to say sorry? Does one do it with flowers? Or does one write a letter to express one's regret in hurting that person? Or does one kneel and say sorry?
I am no a vocal person nor a demonstrative one. But really, how does one say sorry? How do you admit that you have done wrong and want to make things right? How do you make things the way they were before?

Kukai127 dont u drop by their house.If they didnt want to forgive you,u should only give ur smile to them and say "ok no problem,good bye". Maybe you can find new friends better than them.Good luck for you.

im not a vocal person in saying sorry but my suggestion is that you write that person a letter.express what you felt,that you are really sorry about what happened.if the person already read your letter then you may tell it person you're sorry.i know it takes a lot of courage to do so,but i learned to do it especially if that person is important to you.

Well, if you are really sorry, the best you can do is apologize to that someone and ask for forgiveness. You said you are not a vocal and demonstrative person but my advice to you is swallow your pride(sometimes we have to do this) and talked to the person yourself to show him/her that you are really sincere in asking her/his forgiveness.Through text or phone is good but the best is approach him/her and say it personally.

Try to talk to a person you hurt one on one. Ask her what are the reason why he/she get mad at you and after that say sorry,you promise that you will not do it again. If he/she ask you why you do those things that make him/her mad explain your self but in the way that you accept that it is still your fault. Everybody can forgive so don't worry. Happy Mylotting..

thanks, bubuth. we already made up. we both said sorry to each other. i guess not seeing each other for a couple of days cooled down our temper and made things clearer.
those days we didn't see each other made me realize that what i did was wrong. i said sorry and he also said he was sorry. all is good.

I usually send a txt message to someone that I've done wrong. This is my way of taking a first step. After that, i will meet the person and say sorry. It really helps because the person already know that you admitted that you are wrong and is willing to reconcile. Sending a letter is good too. Kneeling is done if you have hurt the person tremendously that it greatly affect his/her life. I will never allow someone to do that just to give my forgiveness.
