realizing we are all just people who make mistakes. i might be the villain in someones story and that’s okay. i did all i could directly, i apologized and took responsibility and they asked i leave them alone so that’s what im doing. all i can do now is work on myself to try and make sure i dont repeat those mistakes that hurt others. don’t let the shame get to u and convince u that u can’t change. use your guilt don’t just sit and think about the what ifs or wishing you could turn back time and never do it. u can’t you just have to move on and be better. remember ur mistakes do not define u but how u respond to them does.
I don’t know why so many people feel the pathological urge to point the blame at literally anyone other than themselves. Admitting fault is a strength, not a weakness. If you tell me you fucked something up I’ll respect you so much more than if you deflect and try to point blame.
Sometimes you mess up. Sometimes you do something awkward. Sometimes you hurt someone with your actions. And sometimes you are faced with the consequences from these things. All you can do is take it on the chin tbh. That WAS my bad. And I’ve learned from it too
SHAKE IT OFF!! YOU ARE FALLIBLE
nothing is harder than realizing you‘re in the wrong and having to apologize, even if it’s immediately then or a year later but sometimes you have to rip the bandaid off and find peace with the fact that you ultimately did the right thing at the end. whether they accept the apology or not, that’s not something you can control but at least, you admitted your wrongs
