i just sorta break down and cry if i feel really bad about it... otherwise i just act sarcastic...

Some people have so much pride that they think whatever they do is right, and have no reason whatsoever to apologise to others when they make mistakes. In fact, do they even think they make mistakes? :s

I guess it mainly has to do with pride. Some people are just scared of saying sorry.

I've learned that sometimes sorry doesn't cut it, no matter how much you mean it. So my guess is some folks think they won't be believed that they are sorry for whatever it is they have done.

I have been on both sides of that fence as one person that didn't believe it when someone said sorry and someone that has said sorry and meant it with every fiber of my being and wasn't believed. :(

I think it's because some people are way to stubborn and refuse to give in. (They have to much pride ;) )
But I can't stand to get into fights so I say I'm sorry anyhow, just so it can come to an end! ^_^' but if I did do something wrong I still have to say I'm sorry because if I don't, I feel guilty & I get stressed out over it.

For me, I'm just scared of saying sorry because of what BlueZeroStrike mentioned, you could mean it with all your heart and yet, still not be believed. I've said sorry and truly meant it many times and people didn't believe me. So I just keep my mouth shut.

The times when i hurt someone by accident, I do everything I can to show I'm sorry. I guess its the part of me that doesn't like to hurt people.

But on the other hand, I do have trouble saying "sorry" when it comes to an arguement and I realize it was my fault. Pride is probably a part of it, though I really never had any pride in myself till the last half of my high school years. In that case, it probably because I don't want to say "sorry" cause I was argueing over something I believed in and don't want to admit my point of you was wrong.

Its different for everyone. Some people have no problem saying sorry when they realize their fault, while others will never think of it.

0_0 man there are like a bunch of paragraphs in this thread. I have the hardest time apologizing to people. but i dont no why. i usually read all the comments people put on the thread before i make my own BUT IN THIS CASE THERE IS NO WAY DX

This thread reminds me of the revived song Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word version by Blue feat. Elton John.

basing from my own experiences ^^; I guess it's hard to say sorry since you're afraid to admit your wrong, or you're afraid that the person might not forgive you and stuff c:

Agreeing with many of you the hard part is not to say "sorry"" the hardest is to admit that u were wrong or that u did something that somehow hurt someone in a way or another.

Generally because people do not want to admit they were wrong.

saying sorry means they are wrong.
Unless they really are wrong, then they don't say it
