I agree with sage on that one...Only because I do that to see if fight is over. Bring up something that is totally unrelated, trivial, and see what the reaction is.
My H never apologizes for things....Its been that way our entire R, but once I realized his way of apologizing without saying I'm sorry, I was able to get over a fight as well. If this is H's way of smoothing things over, accept that and go with the flow.
