It's one thing to say your sorry and another to really mean it. Of course I say "I'm sorry" if I have a legitimate reason to. Some poeple walk around saing I'm sorry every day, for little or no reason. It doesn't make sense, but to own up to something you have done wrong in a big way, is important. It makes you ownership of the problem. Never make it someone elses wrong doing if it is yours.

If I discover that I really make a mistake I will definitely say sincerely to him ‘I am sorry’. Then I will have some practical moves to show that my apology is honest. In this way both parties will have advantages as one will feel being respected and the other will feel relaxed. Anyhow I believe this will do less harm to the relationship between them.

Sorry is not my favorite word, and I try to behave so I do not have to use it often. If I do make a mistake I will say I'm sorry

I do say that I'm sorry, when I make a mistake, or hurt someone's feelings. For me it is the right thing to do, and I don't feel shameful for doing it. I go over my day every evening,and try to see if I hurt someone in someway, and then I apologize for it. I sleep a whole lot better at night, and the person I apologize to sleeps better as well.

I have said this many times in my life. I have always tried to take responsibility for my actions. If I am at fault or if I have hurt someone I make a point to let the person know I am sorry for my actions. I have noticed people are more forgiving if you own up to your mistake and acknowledge it by these 3 simple words. It has never been hard for me to admit when I am truly sorry. When I was younger I struggled with this, because there were times I was told to say this when I was not sorry for what happened. So, I justified it by saying I was sorry I got caught or I was sorry the person perceived things that way. I stayed in trouble with my Mother for not saying I am sorry for my actions when I truly was not sorry. Now as an adult I have realized it does not matter if I am sorry for my actions or not, it is a matter of letting the other person know I ackowledge the mistake.

Have said it when necessary and do not repeat it much. To say sorry, the other person needs to be ready to accept it. To say you are sorry necessitates you feeling truly sorry so the words are not cheapened. I am sorry is a good thing to be capable of in this world.

I hate saying I'm sorry, unless I really am. I don't do it often, except with my boy friend. Somehow he has a power over me to make me apologize to him for anything and everything that he seems upset for:(. Although I have the same power over him so I guess it's not that bad:). Yes, I say I'm sorry a lot with him, but that's it.

I do say sorry when I know that I have made a mistake.When I was younger,it was very hard for me to accept that I had committed a mistake.Thankfully my parents always taught us to analyse our actions and think whether what we have done is right or wrong.It has made it much easier for me to say sorry now.I don't remember how many times I said sorry but it must have been less than 5 times.This is with regard to really serious mistakes.I am normally not the kind of person to jump to conclusions and accuse people.I just tend to shut my mouth and go away.so thankfully,I haven't said too many hurting words for which I need to say sorry.Otherwise though I use the word whenever I have accidentally called my friend while she was asleep,or when I have stamped her foot without looking,small things really which neither me nor my friend minds.
