is it ever too late to accept an apology?

Question

i want to apologize to 2 people who deserve an explanation and closure on what actually happened the day i did what i did. this happened 7 months ago, and i haven't apologized yet because i was feeling resentment towards them. now that i've analyzed my toxic role in the situation, i'm coming from a clearer mindset to apologize.

Answer

It’s never too late to apologize.
But you can’t expect them to accept it. You give your peace and accept the consequences.
Hope you get a positive outcome :)

Answer

You can apologize, but they don’t have to accept it 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

It’s never too late! 
But, just because you apologize doesn’t mean that they will forgive, or be nice, or change anything. 
But an apology from you could give them closure

Answer

I think it depends on the situation and if they have moved on with their life. I clicked “yes” it can be too late because at this point, they have probably already had closure without you and coming back into their life because YOU WANT to apologize may be extremely detrimental to their health. This closure isn’t for them. It’s for you. If you in no way talk to these people anymore, you can send an apology but they have no responsibility or obligation to reply. And if they do, there’s a good chance you’re opening the door to a conversation you’ll have to be really mentally prepared for. Your toxic traits stopped being their issue when the relationship ended. You realizing your toxic traits is extremely healthy and you should be proud. But… you hurt some people and their emotions/perspective of you are still valid and just because you are sorry doesn’t mean they’ll accept it. So I guess long story long, read the room, take their life into consideration and what waltzing in will do, and decide who the apology is for. Is it truly for them and you’re giving a detailed apology for situations. Or are you trying to be vague and simply say “I realize my faults. I’m sorry. I hope you’re well” so you feel better? If you at all want to be vague, leave it alone. Genuine apologies can’t be vague.
