"There's something deeply attractive about someone who can acknowledge when they've stuffed up and offer a genuine apology. It takes a big person to admit they're wrong, as the saying goes."
"You can acknowledge it, recognise how important it is that they offered it and still not accept it. This might mean acknowledging the transgression can't be fixed with a simple one-liner."
"It is possible to refuse or reject an apology without walking away from a relationship, acknowledging that there are some cuts that go too deep to forgive."
"While it does take a big person to offer an apology, it takes a bigger person to accept that no one has the right to expect an apology will or must be accepted."
