Pride in relationship - should I apologize first?

in love •  7 years ago 

I had an argument with my woman and she angrily left my house by 11pm.

Even though what happened was her fault,i ended up apologizing first to her.

I wonder how she manages to get me to apologize first, both when she's at fault and when I'm at fault.

Sometimes I consider it as weakness on my side, but I think it's strength. Because it has kept my relationship this far.


My close friend had a similar issue, though it was his fault this time, he refused to apologize because he said

I know I was wrong, but she has no right to smash my car

At this point I didn't know who should apologize first, whose sin was greater. She smashed his car because he lied.

Personally I find it so easy to apologize when I'm wrong . Not being apologetic has broken lots of relationships.

The girl is saying

I won't say I'm sorry so that I won't look weak , if he cares he'll call me then I'll say I'll apologize

The guy is saying...

her pride is too much, If she loves me and she is sorry she'll call to say she's sorry

The two party will keep on waiting on each other till they both get used to staying without each other. Which leads to divorce.

I usually ask people

how come parents don't end their relationship with their kids, no matter the good or bad done by the kids?

that's because their love is unconditional

The only reason you're thinking about a divorce is because you've made your love conditional.

You have other options, because if you don't, you'll try to make your relationship work again.

Pride is the number one destroyer of relationships

Woah smashing his car was "Big".. And in most cases unforgivable. It would take a real gentle man and consideration on the cost of the car to let such an offense slide. The foundation of a good relationship is understanding. Honesty also plays a big part. If a connection can be established by blending both factors, then I bet It will be all good.
