Pardon me, but... I'm so sorry!

I used to do it, untill a point i just got ignored for my apologies and i just felt like "why am i even doing this if i get ignored anyways?"
 
I don't tend to apologize too much unless the accident could have EASILY turned out much worse. After I say it I just feel like "Meh, they probably couldn't have cared less."
 
No, i don't! I only do when someone tells me to do it! Because i think instead of apologizing the person will ignore me and insult me!
 
It depends on the age of the person if I say sorry or not. If under 13 (a child) I'll say sorry to show them right from wrong. 13= 19( teenager) no apology. 19-65 (adult) I'll apologize depending what I did. 65 and older (OAP) every time I'll apolopize to them
 
I only apologise when I have something to apologise for, due to a fault of my own or a mistake I make. Trying to get around someone who is in my way is not something that I will apologise for. I will however apologise to someone if I found to be in their way.
 
Same a Shining Raichu, I don't apologize much. It's not that apologizing necessarily makes you weak, I just don't think to do it. It's like in Even Stevens when Louis says "if he ever says sorry, don't be his friend". Or something like that. :p
 
I apologize a lot if I have done something wrong because I want the other person to truly understand that I am admitting my mistake. Sometimes this becomes annoying to the other person because I say it to often but I just can't help it sometimes haha. That said, if I truly don't feel like what I did was wrong you aren't getting an apology out of me.
 
Apparently there's a Canadian stereotype where we are polite about everything S: Never heard about it until someone in my culture class mentioned it, but interesting...I guess I fit into that stereotype. I apologize to everyone about everything even when I know I'm not wrong, but I never want someone to feel that I'm a bad person ;___; My friends and family say I'm too nice...
 
Yes, because I am Canadian.



Nah, seriously though, I'm a bit surprised at the responses to this thread. Along with saying "thank you" when someone does something nice for you, or "excuse me" when you're trying to get around someone, when you do something wrong to any degree you apologize, it's just a part of decent manners. That's how I see it, anyway.
 
I'm British, so I'm naturally polite and apologetic with strangers and then when they get to know me I'll just stop giving a ****. :P
 
I apologise for being annoying, for being a dork in general, for saying something stupid, and some other reasons.
So I say 'sorry' a good bit haha.

When we make mistakes, no matter is it fatal or not, sometimes we want to say apologize. Do you apologize a lot, and why? And what's your opinion when you say sorry a lot, how do you feel?

I apologize very often because I was bullied as a teenager and I thought by apologizing to my peers for all my faults would maybe make them my friend...

I still apologize to this day but not as frequently; my fiance gets on to me when I apologize a lot and he says I never have to be sorry for anything around him. c:

I still apologize and am polite, but I'm not that as shy anymore or vulnerable like I was back in high school or middle school.
 
I make myself apologize when I bump into someone, or find myself obstructing someone's path.

As for incidences that are clearly on my side of the error, I try my best to make a true and sincere apology, and move on. I'm not the type to apologize 24/7 for minute things.
 
I don't apologize, per se, but I acknowledge that something was my fault. For example, my friends and I were playing DnD, and the town we were in started to burn down, which was definitely not in the story for the GM. I looked around the table, and said, "That's a my bad, bro. I hope that wasn't an important horse."

Only time I really apologize is when I am about to do something evil, like farting in a crowded elevator. And I make sure I have the biggest grin when I apologize, like, "I am soo sorry."
 
Most of the time, yes. Whenever I make mistakes, it's usually the result of me being ignorant and such. Not apologizing for something I've done wrong just, y'know... doesn't seem right. ^^"
