Welcome to Lifebuilder!
It’s amazing how often when we know we’re in the wrong,
we make the situation worse by trying to shift the blame. Research on victims of
crime shows that what they want more than anything is for the perpetrator to admit responsibility and express contrition. People are incredibly forgiving. You only
need to have lived in South Africa for the past 10 years to see that.
BUILD YOUR LIFE
Mend Your Relationships
- It’s never too late to say sorry. 20 years late is still better than never.
- You can give a reason for what you did, but a real apology means that you
accept full responsibility for what you did and express sincere regret.

Those we hurt don’t buy our spineless excuses, so why even bother with them? Ironically, the best way to undo some of the damage to the relationship is to
admit we were wrong and make a heart-felt apology. We are all imperfect, but we make ourselves less so when we admit it.
