The best apology is changed behavior
the only real apology is changed behavior. If you apologize and continue to do the same thing again that apology was worthless.
people ask me: if your dad apologized, surely you’d forgive him.
no. he’s “apologized”. he always does. from the time i was a kid. his behavior never changes for longer than a week.
until i see that he can make a lasting change, that he’s getting help for his mhis, i’m going to stay as far away from him as humanly possible.
