i read somewhere that sagittarians don't apologize. that they dont believe in saying sorry when the thing they did could happen again. (paraphrased)
i totally agree with this. i mean, i only apologize when ive done something really huge and it hurt somebody pretty bad and i dont mean to repeat it. i dont say sorry for minor things. like almost breaking something, i.e. glass, fave bottle or whatever. and i dont say sorry when the intention i had was good but the person got hurt, so to speak- like holding a hand a bit too strongly, accidentally embracing too tightly.
tho' i say sorry to strangers, like stepping on their foot accidentally. but to a loved one, i dont, i say: oops then smile. maybe i believe that, since the person is a loved one or a family member, i expect her/him to understand and not get offended. s/he's supposed to know when the pain was intentional or not. if it wasn't then no apology is necessary.
am i making sense? i really dont know how to justify how i behave. but i do the extremes. i say sorry when i dont mean it that much(to strangers) and i say sorry when i really mean it (for huge mistakes/wrongdoings) anything in between i consider it unnecessary to do so.
when somebody keeps repeating the word sorry when i already said it's ok, i get irritated. and instead of that thing (whatever s/he did) being totally irrelevant, it becomes an issue because i got irritated and the person is trying to make it into a huge deal so it becomes a huge deal. thats why i hate it when people keeps repeating the word.
it's just like saying i love you. when you keep saying the phrase, morning-noon-and-night, it slowly loses it's value. why cant we just say it once in a while so you'd treasure the moments you heard it? huh?

Most often than not, it is easier to say the words that we don't mean than say the words that truly matters.
yea, y is that?
hmmm...prolly coz we fear that when we say what truly matters, we'd be ridiculed. prolly...
yes, mainly because of fear. We are afraid of criticisms, rejection, fear of hurting others at marami pang iba. Basta ganun. Parang pag nanliligaw diba? Pag hindi seryoso, madaling sabihin ang iluvu, pro pag talagang mahal na mahal mo, mahirap magtapat ng nararamdaman. diba?
