Hi @rdgrad15,

Not that I'm perfect by any means, but there's also the case of simply giving an apology to the person for the reason of clearing your conscience, if need be - releasing the guilt. Yes, it may trigger an ego response in the other person [hey, we all have an ego, don't we?] but at least you can say to yourself, you did the right thing. I've forced myself to apologize to people I didn't necessarily like because I realized, regardless of what their personality type is, they're still a person. I try to stick to this idea [albeit haphazardly] that everyone is equal. Do unto other's, etc, which includes apologizing.

So, did I apologize for them or for me? Well, at the end of the day, I like to think both.
