5 powerful ways to say sorry
It has often been said that the best way to apologise is to simply not repeat the action that caused a problem in the first place. However, as humans we tend to make some mistakes more than once and sometimes this can lead to the other party becoming impatient or intolerant of the excuses.1. Write a love letter2. An invitation to dinner to talk about it3. A hand-made gift
It doesn’t have to be fancy or expensive. It just needs to be genuine and creative – something that puts a smile on your partner’s face when they receive it. You could also think of ways to surprise them with it.
So how do make someone believe in you again and trust you not to repeat the same mistakes?
Words, when written and spoken, can move mountains. A well-written love letter expressing one’s heart and how sorry one is can touch the heart and soul.
The initiative taken will be appreciated if that person loves you, and sometimes people need to be away from the place that caused the issues in the first place. A date invitation is a great way to say ‘I am sorry and I mean it’.
4. A home-cooked meal5. Confront your partner with your heart
Food is the way to the heart. It doesn’t have to be elaborate; it just needs to have meaning and look like you put your heart into it.
Once you have done something offensive, it should be addressed. But if it is done in excess to the point where your partner doesn’t even desire to speak to you, you need to make the effort to regain their heart and you do this by opening yours. You may think it is scary being vulnerable, but there is so much power within it because that is the only way your partner will see and feel your heart-felt apology.
