How do you think it works for a prisoner up for parole for the third time and he tells the board that he "isn't going to apologize anymore" and he wants them to stop asking him and talking about the past because he wants to move on and they should too? That he is now a changed man and they should stop holding it against him because it isn't helping anyone?
I would venture to say his parole would be denied if he showed that attitude.. He may win the battle but lose the war.. The board would be thinking.. "Hmmm. I guess he really isn't sorry. It must have been only a show the last time he was up for parole. Good thing we didn't let him out.
Also, where did this now all the sudden change from a woman bringing up the past to that means she is holding it over your head or beating you up with it? Do you mean to tell me that you apologized for something and she should just up and forget it forever more? I am here to tell you if you know women at all, then that isn't reality..
You better be darn sure that she is bringing it up to beat you up before you go telling a woman that you don't want to hear about it anymore and that you have already apologized...
I am not telling you to keep apologziing to a woman who hasn't first brought it up.. I AM telling you to just make it quick to the point and agree again that "yes, honey I was wrong. (then drop it)
