Good Ways to Say I'm Sorry to Your Love

It is not every day that we are perfect. As a matter of fact, we are more imperfect than we are perfect. So once in a while we do things that don't turn out so perfect. To say I'm sorry isn't enough sometimes. Somehow it seemed to be just words. Almost like children, we should be able to rectify the wrong we've done. Furthermore, saying “I'm sorry” to some people are just utterly difficult. Below are five good ways to say I'm sorry. Some are not just apologies, but also constructive ways to build upon your relationship. More importantly, these extra steps show you have thought about the wrong, and that his or her happiness means more than the world to you.


1) Check your mate’s favorite website to shop, and check the cart, or the wish list. If he / she doesn't have a favorite website, then get some amazing ideas from these marks and spencer voucher codes, you can choose from food to order, wine to order, flowers, clothes, or accessories. Once you have selected an item or two, place an order for delivery to his or her place with a note that says “I am really sorry!


2) Write a note about the situation that you are sorry about and express how you could have done it better in three different ways. It is one thing that you are sorry, but she / he would probably like to know how you could have done it better.

3) Cook your mate a meal that he or she absolutely loves and tell him/ her how much it means to you to see his smile. Think of it as a punishment that you both can benefit from. You learned a new recipe and he / or she gets to enjoy it for a lifetime with you.


4) Put together a card or a collage of a few favorite photos or places that you’ve been together and remind him/ her how you would love make him happy again. It is always great to reminisce about a happy time. Not only that but it tends to tell someone that they were significant enough in your life for you to hang on to those memories.


5) Post a note in the local newspaper that he or she reads. Post a note on an online site that he or she frequents. If you want to be discreet about the situation, just be creative. Instead of spelling out to the world what your mistake was, say something like: “Dear Significant Other: Collect your box of Dark Chocolate and Almonds and dinner reservations at H.W.Y for your patience and tolerance on Wednesday. Sign: Your admire”

These steps are not just for the people who need to apologize, but also for people who have been done wrong to as well. Use this list to build upon or to select which of these ways you would like the apology to be. Like a child, instead of giving them a timeout, which does absolutely nothing positive, try to ask for a solution. Try to add to the situation positively.

In what special ways have you say I’m sorry?
