"Apologized for what? Actually, I thought my W owed ME an apology, but I hate asking for apologies. And her behavior after the altercation, was enough for me. The thing was, I did this all without getting ANGRY and LOUD. I was still upset about what she said, but I acted in a calm manner."
Don't get me wrong HD. I think you did the right thing. I am just relating how my W would have reacted. She knows that even if she is in the wrong, all she has to do is clam up for a few days and I'll start apologizing. It is a fault of mine that I am trying to work on.
BTW, I am the same way, I get embarrased by apologies. I don't go looking for them. I'd rather the matter just get dropped and we move on. Maybe that is faulty behavior on my part?
