BnaturAl: no, I need to hear accountability.
Yes, I think I agree with that. The apology wouldn't be so much for me, as the person concerned. Its the grown-up, mature, AND gracious thing to do. I would have much more respect for someone taking account of any wrong-doings than otherwise.....

someone saying their sorry validates the fact they understand they have hurt or upset you..
at the same time...the tone of voice used is important too.....
I often ask what they are sorry about..just to see if they really do get it.

alabamabebe: Yep, you can say it all day long, unless you change and take responsibility for what you've done it means nothing.
Being accountable for something you have done is one thing, and requires an apology in my book, if there was an intention or will to hurt, for instance if you were just having a bad day and didn't care who you took it out on, or had a grudge against someone.
But being responsible for how someone interprets and feels about what you have done, is another thing altogether.
We are not, and should not, feel responsible for another's feelings. They arrived at those all on their own, through their own thinking and interpretaton, often by misinterpreting someone's intentions.

fireliter: when someone regrets what they have done or said to or about you, and you know they regret their actions... do you need still need to hear an apology?
If you knew the person well enough in the first place, you would have your answer to that, because you would know if they were sincere or not.

Yes cause if they're any kind of a person they will apologize.

The words help, but forgiveness can be implied - both in offered and acceptance forms.

No but I do feel responsible for giving one when I have grievously erred.
