Acknowledging our mistakes

The road to a healthy relationship sometimes depends on our willingness to accept our faults and work towards establishing an effort to correct our mistakes.

How long would it take, after a misunderstanding has occurred, for you to acknowledge such an effort? How critical is it if any, is the implication on the timing?

Are there moments, when afterwards, realize our errors, have made us say: "Why did I do that?" then what would you do to fix it?
Or do we let it fly in time and forget it happened?

Thanks for all your contributions and participation.

Note: Realizing the sensibility this topic calls on our characters, that doesn't mean we don't make a mistake, and I hope there is a way to make us learn if only to make our life easier in terms of a harmonious relationship?

Thanks again..

SR

Apology is not needed..For one thing this is not a table where measurement on one's opinion discredits the valid points of others. But for purposes of learning and or improving our relationships, sharing this first hand experiences based on our personal encounters would definitely make us, say.... Hmmmnn, yes, that is good! You know? when we go and watch a movie and see lives of people played out before us? We learn, right? Much the same way here and I am grateful for your participation.

We all have our reasons not to make ammends in relationships...to many misunderstandings...mistakes or too many words like, I am sorry...it can be exhausting experience...

God knows I have tried to turn you around these past few days.
To see the errors of your ways.
To show the world the real you
Kindness humility patience understanding
Yet you continue not to allow the others to see you as you have allowed me to see you.
I shall not give up on you.
It had now become my destiny to bring forth the real you.
doh

The road to a healthy relationship in partnership or friendship definitely depends on both side flexibilities and tolerance as if I am going to admit my mistake (if I made a quick judgment that needs correction) I do also expect 2 was street elaboration to look from every angle;why this misunderstanding come in first place !? Some people does not accept to be able making any faults but rather trowing all blame on anyone else so I can be self critical or bashing myself up -while other person insist on perfection !? Yes, if is my fault and I relaise it, I rather come clean as soon as possible to appologies and explain our misfortunate misunderstanding- doesn't matter if person wouldn't give up from self centred perfection attitude :frustrated and if such bad perfectionist attitude thinks it's wining because I am self critical let it be ...but there is no winner in such relation as after this experience - I would rather enjoy quite distance to forgetfulness about person. With friends who are truly flexible and tolerant I don't have any bad misunderstanding that can not be fixed in discasing things reasonable and that's the beauty of showing maturity. wave Great Blog thumbs up
Way to ho my dear birthday celebrant. Thanks in putting it very succinctly. Yes I love that reasoni. Egotism played by refusing to admit a fault is but detrimental to a healthy relationship.

I'm going to add a poster that says: WANTED, SOMEONE TO TAKE ALL THE BLAMES FOR EVERYTHING I DO WRONG AROUND HERE!

PERFECTIONIST. ANOTHER GOOD TOPIC,

Dear Sundayrose1;I like to add that, each person who cross our path of life journey wether to stay short or long time -
we share some lessons of life that shape us in the way we are or become to grow and the same experience is translated differently from each personal views;from where we can reflect what kind of personal attitude towards life in general takes place for each of us. We all have endless opportunity to learn from our own mistakes by taking positive out of everything -even the bad experiences,as for the people who are self center perfectionist which Ego must be carefully pat like a cat who may change the mood and scratch you or become bitter and bite like angry dog and can't gat over they're own blindness ...they do not need judgments and there is no self criticism who can satisfy they're Ego of not trying to push you more down the hill as if being Right is the only thing that matters- than where is love and care for another human well being !? How much wrong one person can be in relationship that makes two to Tango !?
We can agree to disagree, we can fall apart and outgrown our friend or partner but basic qualities that really matters to my point of views is being compassionate human and if quality of sincerity, kindness and meaning well for each other always existed as very base why you where ever close to special someone; how that love of care can disappier if you ever loved your friend or partner to not try seeing things from every angle and give each other hand of understanding, tolerance, forgiveness... to come in harmonious that brings peace and acceptance. It's easier said than done if we found opposite character to be friend or partner so that's why; if you run in life like rocket it's better to find similar kind of nature in friends or partner as 'Rocket never matches with little miny mouse of Mr Bean car or opposite"... laugh
Thank you for kindness of sharing sincere friendship -you're lightening this Blogs with such shiness of thoughts teddybear Great Blog !peace handshake
Dear friend Sundarose1; in subject of 'Acknowledging our mistakes' I like to share another thought that brings felling of harmony with ourselves and others ...
Elisabeth Kubier-Ross (Swiss-born American psychiatrist) said; "If we make our goal to live a life of compassion and unconditional love, than the world will indeed become a garden where all kind of flowers can bloom and grow."
To me facing our own imperfections/mistakes before pointing finger to others is looking for balance within us and universe ...Ending chats on a happy and hopeful note we find tranquillity and our lives are more peaceful. If we consider Love eternal to be ...there will always be a touch of enchantment in the world. peace Forever friends teddybear
