How to say "I'm Sorry" after a Breakup Upset
In a situation where emotional trauma has occurred bringing sorrow and hurt to another and has also prompted deep understandings about your own emotional growth and spiritual healing - (This example is about the type of upset which causes relationship break-ups, not the little things, although you might try it for less disturbing conflicts too.)
One possible way of saying you are sorry might be:
Having a talk with him, letting him
know:
- you see the mistakes you made,
- sharing everything you have learned in this situation and now understand about yourself and the situation,
- giving
apologies and
- asking him to someday forgive you, and
- know that you do
love him, and
- if he would ever give you another opportunity to share
that love with him, you would honor love more wisely.
Something along these lines will help you to forgive yourself and allow closure,
which promotes healing and peace for all concerned.
Peace,
Laurel
