a small guide to apologizing sincerely, the right way.

apologizing for wronging someone can be really hard and sometimes we might not know how to go about it, so here’s a little guide I put together that can hopefully give some helpful tips and pointers in the right direction.

1. Acknowledge what you did was wrong, why it was wrong, and incorporate that into your apology. Example: “What I did wasn’t right and I hurt you, and that wasn’t ok. I’m sorry.”

2. As they say: “Actions speak louder than words.” Don’t say your sorry and then go and repeat your harmful actions all over again. It shows that your apology wasn’t sincere and next time they probably won’t forgive you (rightfully so). Show them you’re truly sorry by working to avoid repeating the same bad action again.

3. Own up to your mistakes. Yes, you’re not perfect and we make mistakes. We have bad days, we snap at people we don’t mean to or lose our temper in a heated argument and say things we don’t mean. However, don’t blame your actions on your mental illness, on someone else, or just try to pass the blame on to anything but yourself. Take responsibility for your actions.

4. Understand that they are never obligated to forgive you. This is really important. If you apologize and throw a fit when they choose not to forgive you, it shows that your apology was not sincere to begin with, since you were only apologizing because you wanted their forgiveness, not because you realize you made a mistake and hurt them. If someone doesn’t forgive you, it doesn’t mean you can’t move on. You’ll be ok. Learn from it and grow from it, and let it go.

Shoutout to my 90 year old grandma with dementia (she thinks she’s back when she was 20) and she misunderstood us when we said her nursing home cook didn’t make food for OTHER people and she thought we said “colored people” and she got so mad she was ready to steal food so she could feed everyone. Keep in mind she thinks she’s in like 1940s and she is READY to defend poc. Shout out to you grandma.

All dogs go to heaven, all cats are from hell. Whenever a demon comes to a home to haunt or possess, if they see a cat, they leave out of respect.

No matter what, you never deserve abuse.

You never deserve abuse because you’re too needy or clingy

You never deserve abuse because you “let it happen” or “didn’t fight back” or “didn’t stand up for yourself”

You never deserve abuse because you “let it get this far” or you “stayed this long”

You never deserve abuse because your abuser is your mother or father, sister or brother, other family member, your boyfriend, girlfriend, fiancée, husband, or wife

You never deserve abuse because you have a particular mental or physical illness

You never deserve abuse because you’re “too emotional”

You never deserve abuse because you were “asking for it”

You never deserve abuse even though you’ve made mistakes, or said something wrong, or haven’t understood something, or can’t remember something

You never deserve abuse for being “too much” or “not good enough”

You never deserve abuse for having off days or being vulnerable sometimes

You never deserve abuse for asking for help

You never deserve abuse, no matter how many times and how many ways your abuser justifies it or makes excuses for it.
