How do I say sorry without actually saying sorry?

Snapped at mum again. I had asked her to fill gas in the car coz it was almost empty. She forgot. I snapped at her when she returned and I forced her to get back in the car and fill gas and come back. Damn. Damn.
I mean I could have done it too when I left for piano class an hour later. Urgh.

How about just saying you’re sorry. My mom was diagnosed with brain cancer and died two months later. You never know when that last second will tick off leaving you with a lifetime of regret.

Why are you opposed to saying sorry? 🤔

When we fail at life, the only way to redeem ourselves is by acknowledging our wrongdoings and atone for them.

When we know better, we do better.

She needs to hear you’re sorry though. Stop being so proud, it’s your mother. Get her something nice too.

I don't understand why she did what you told her to. Why she went back out. I wouldn't of done it. Do you pay her? Pay the bills, own the car, buy the shopping, pay for gas? How comes you own your mother?

Just say "Listen, about before.... I'm sorry" Being able to say sorry is one of the most important relationship skills anyone can ever learn

@Heretodaygonetomorrow or... don't. It's just a cheap way to get out of guilt, if you're sorry and truly mean it then don't use money to cover up for it.

@MartinTheFirst I don't think two posts gave a good picture on anything. But yes, both those acts were wrong and I acknowledge them.

@Heretodaygonetomorrow well that's true, but take my opinion for what it's worth. Maybe just question it a bit.
