You cannot accept an apology that is not given.


There may be times when some one may not have a chance to apologize.

If some creep steps on your toe and gets mad at you just to hide his own awkwardness, that is one thing but people can trespass against you with out being aware of it.

I would rather assume they were unaware of it and forgive them.

...”I would rather assume they were unaware of it and forgive them”....

Two of my family members and I were just discussing this yesterday....I think in families what you stated needs to be practiced all the more and just assume they didn’t mean it. If it’s disturbing then just talk about it, which does not always mean forgiveness rather something was misspoken or misunderstood and an apology, if even that, is more sufficient.

Not everything is matter of forgiveness.....we forget we are made of the dust of the earth....God doesn’t....
