The person should own up to what she or he has done, admit that it was wrong and harmful, ask for forgiveness explicitly "I am sorry for harming you, please forgive me" not "If you got hurt, sorry" and then accept what the person says and does next. Some actions break relationships or stop them from ever starting. The person who has harmed someone else should know and accept that along with forgiveness might come the directive "now stay away from me."
