Best way to say sorry?
Saying sorry is pretty worthless.
A proper amend is much better.
If you crossed someone's boundary. Own up to it, understand why you did it and admit why that was wrong. Never do it again.
If you harm them, empathize with them. Show that you understand how they felt when you hurt them. Offer to do anything they’d like to mend the issue. Most importantly never do it again.
If you took or damaged someone’s property. Admit it was wrong to do so. Empathize with how they felt when you did it.
Offer to replace or repair the broken property.
Saying sorry is just…. well just that, a sorry excuse for an amendment.
It's a good start but you need to take ownership of your actions, never do it again, and repair the harm done.
That is a real apology.
