Sorry seems to be hardest word - is this true for you?

If I know I was wrong and realise it afterwards then I don't really have a problem with saying that I am sorry. However, if I don't believe I'm wrong I won't say I'm sorry even if it means that the other person will stay mad at me for longer.

I don't think it's difficult to say I'm sorry. If I've messed up, or if I'm wrong, I can acknowledge it. It doesn't cost me anything to tell somebody that I made a mistake. And hopefully I learn from it.

It is hard to admit mistakes - but i do own up whenever i know i am wrong (its not easy for anyone to make me realise that,though..lol.) so if someone does succeed in making me realise my mistake, i will say sorry. if it's not my fault but someone wants to blame it on me - no way will i own up.

I have been saying sorry a lot lately- menopause has causing me to have a quick temper, so i fly off the handle at people whe i should have more patience, i just seemed to have lost it and can't find it again.. lol. My husband woudl definately say that sorry is not in his vocabulary, he is like Fonzie from Happy Days.. the word just can't come out.. lol, but he will do something in place of it like ask me out to dinner or something- and i will know what he means and that he is trying to make nice.

I don't think so. Sorry is easy enough of a word to say and those who don't say it well. that does tell you something =) For me it's one of the easiest words as I do mean it and I think there's people who will say it and not mean it. I don't see how it's hard and I wished more wasn't so stubborn. Five letters and 1 second that's all it takes. ~Joey Kudos

Indeed 'sorry ' seems to be the hardest word. But I think everyone will have to get over saying sorry. Its only being responsible for your own actions that you will be willing to step up and apologies. I personally feel that people who are willing to admit their mistakes are the people who have the ability to succeed in life. Of cos, this doesn't go to the people who feel sorry for themselves. To those people, I can only say buck up and get a move on. Life pushes you around and will normally push you in the direction you are thinking.

for me, if i did something wrong, then i will definitely say sorry... it is not that difficult for me and i won't let pride to get in the way because it is just right and it is not worth it... i value people and relationship more than my pride... so, i will always say sorry if i really need to say it...

absolutely not ....i go around saying sorry & thx easily ......well i hav never encountered problems regarding this as yet ....& hope i dont ......but i see many of my friends find it very very difficult to say sorry ........it is something they cant or wouldnt want to say ....well they r & probably will remain proud of this attitude of theirs ....but i personally feel ...this is no good ..........

I don't have a problem with admitting I am wrong. I can say I am sorry. I never mean to hurt anyone. I know I am not always right and don't believe I have to be. It is fine to be wrong. I don't feel bad about being wrong. Sometimes, it is enlightening to discover how wrong I might have been. I am not too proud to say I am sorry.

Most of the time, it's easy for me to say sorry. Especially if I know it's my fault. Well, there are times when I say it even if it's not my fault. But there have been times when I had to swallow that word, not because I didn't want to say it but because I really felt like I would be giving the other person the impression that what they did was right. ***One thing that I'll always remember from my job: People would appreciate it more if we say "I apologize" than "I'm sorry" because you can say sorry to anyone... but apologizing is a whole different matter... It's more sincere and heart-felt... Heheh... Just wanted to share that. =)

I find it especially hard to admit when I'm wrong, but I do it. I love my partner too much to let my pride get in the way of our relationship. We have some almighty arguments sometimes and as a result, tension and stress runs high. It's always a case of who's going to make the first move with the two of us lol. He'll make the first move but I usually end up being the one saying sorry and sobbing on his shoulder lol. I'm such a wuss.

yes you are 100% right that sorry is the hardest word in this world. Sometimes its ok , if u make small mistakes and do apologise by asking sorry its ok. but when it comes to bigger blunders and then you say sorry to othes then its really hurts others because after sorry he/she will not be able to say any thing to u but in the heart he will says i will kill you. what a word kill any body and say sorry it was a mistake. it really hardest word. is't it.

There are alot of times that i find it very hard to apologize when im in the wrong. Sometimes it can be an easy thing to admit. But mostly its difficult. i dont find myself in the wrong often at home so its kind of a big deal admiting when i am wrong.

I find saying "I'm sorry" isnt that difficult for me possibly sometimes too easy but I notice that when I expect my husband to say it, just for the most menial thing he never does and that upsets me. I guess I need to stop expecting him to read my mind but the way I was raised, it's just good manners to say you're sorry when you intentionally/unintentionally hurt someone. He's getting better about it after 7 years but not as good as I'd like him to be

For me it's always been pretty easy. I just can't stand for things to be tense. I alwaysfeel like it's my fault in some way so I apologise very fast...Of course there are times when just do not feel I am the one that needs to say it at all. It does happen.

No, I don't find it hard to say that I'm sorry. In fact, I probably say it sometimes before someone is even upset, because I can't bear the thought of hurting someone's feelings or having someone be angry and upset with me. I haven't gotten in a verbal fight, not a real hard fight, in a very long time. I'm incredihly sensitive to others' feelings, can't bear to see others in pain, and therefore apologize if i even think that there is a slight chance that I might have said or done something that came across badly or might have made the other person (or any other person around) feel badly.

No, very easy word, personally I find Floccinaucinihilipilification much harder all the best urban

Which is the problem? I often say sorry, evenif just for close the comunication. Rarely appens to me that i'm wrong, but i think that if the person i have in front stop making so much listening to my word sorry, I say it without problems. If you are wrong: you have to say. Other person have the ight to listen this word from you.

It isn't so hard to say that word but to be honest when you said "I'm sorry" is harder. There is a lot of people which said "sorry" but they didn't mean it really.

according to me, words like sorry and thanks do not exist between friends but these are really heavy words when used.
