When you know that saying the word ‘sorry’ isn’t really believed by the listener.
When you know that they can’t move on from the action that led to the apology.
When there’s nothing that can be done that won’t be perceived as too late or not enough or just a waste of everyone’s time.
But there are, of course, things you can do. Stay strong, positive and true to yourself. Start to plan for a future without them (as hard as this may be, it might in fact be a reality). Remove the emotion that you feel inside (this negativity will destroy you, not them). Focus on the love that you have from others – they will be there for you within and without.
And remember, everyone makes mistakes. Big, small, deliberate, accidental and sometimes stupid. You can’t be held to this forever.
