Landscape of Relationships: Apologies
What is an apology?
An apology is a regretful acknowledgement of an offense or failure.
Dr. Harriet Lerner
Author of 2017’s “Why Don’t You Apologize: Healing Big Betrayals and Everyday Hurts”
“I’m sorry that I hurt your feelings, but you need to grow a thicker skin.”
Focus on your actions and not the other person’s response
“I’m sorry you feel that way”
“I’m sorry if you took what I said as offensive.”
KISS: Keep it simple, stupid.
Correct your behavior.
Stay consistent
Intend to heal, not silence
Do no harm
Recognizing “I’m sorry” is just a part of it.
“If only our passion to understand others were as great as our passion to be understood. Were this so, all our apologies would be truly meaningful and healing.” – Harriet Lerner
Responding to Criticism
Recognize your defensiveness.
Breathe
Listen only to understand.
Ask questions about whatever you don’t understand.
Find something you can agree with.
Apologize for your part. Period.
Let the offended party know they have been heard and that you will continue to think about the conversation.
Thank the critical person for sharing their feelings.
Take the initiative to bring the conversation up again.
Draw the line at insults
Don’t listen when you can listen well.
Define your differences.
Why don’t people apologize?
Family history
Personal view
Men don’t apologize, Women over-apologize
Perfectionism
Self-esteem
Shame and guilt
“When our identity and sense of worth are at risk of being diminished or annihilated, we will not be able to offer a true apology and face all that the challenge of earning back trust entails.”
“Remember: despite how open, peaceful and loving you attempt to be, people can only meet you, as deeply as they’ve met themselves. “ – Matt Kahn
