Fishing For An Apology

When someone does you wrong, expect no apology from them. Most times, they'll apologize just to shut you up.

When someone does you wrong, expect no apology from them. Most times, they'll apologize just to shut you up. We all know people who fish for apologies after being wronged. Nothing wrong with that because I believe if you wrong someone, you should make it right with them. Unfortunately, not everyone was raised correctly. When someone's is done wrong, the offender falls into one or more categories: 1. They feel they've done nothing wrong so they don't apologize. 2. They don't care if they've hurt you. 3. They apologize to shut you up. People in this category aren't sincere in their apology, they want you to stop fishing for an apology from them so they give you what you want. Just about everybody fits into these 3 categories if they're guilty of hurting somebody. Everyone has been hurt, is hurting or will be hurt at some point in time, that's life. I know it's easier said than done for some people, but folks should learn how to develop thick skin and learn a tough lesson: Everyone who hurts you either will not apologize because they don't care, they don't feel they've wronged you or will give you a half-hearted apology to shut you up. This may not be what folks want to hear, but it's a sad truth. The sooner some folks learn this lesson, the better off they will be because they will be able to see people for who they really are.
