Will saying I'm sorry make you even more mad, angry and furious?

Not at all................a sincere apology is an excellent way of healing a rift. Acknowledge what you did wrong, have the cajones to admit it......and hope the person is in a forgiving mood.

Having said that...............if the person is NOT in the mood to forgive what you did........you risk tearing open the wound again, which could re-generate the feelings of anger the original problem caused.

So the apology better be stellar and not some lame , half-azzed attempt.

Oh, and whatever you do...........AVOID the "insulting apology"..........where your so-called "Apology" includes some new couched insult.

Lke...............I'm sorry, you didn't understand what I said..............or, "I'm sorry you didn't see the humor in the aggravation I caused you".............or some other put down of the person you're trying to "apologize" to.........like the fault was somehow theirs.

People on the internet LOVE those kinds of "apologies" and think they are soooooooooooooo clever, and then say..............Gee, why are you still mad!? I apologized!

It's kind of like saying, "I'm sorry that you're an azz. "

not really an "apology", is it?

shouldnt. if so, move on
