It’s surprising how just saying “I’m sorry” softens
you and your partner. Suddenly, there’s nothing
more to argue over because you have conceded
the fight. There’s no more reason to withhold
your love, which we often do to try to
manipulate our partner, and the result is that
love begins to flow again.
Suddenly, you both remember what you love about each other.
It’s funny how the ego clouds this, but it does so
only momentarily if we are willing to concede
our position and apologize for any hurt we may
have caused. Your partner will love you for that,
and more important perhaps, apologizing makes
it possible for you to love your partner again.
