What's a good apology for neglect in a relationship?

nonsensiclesnail · F Best Comment
The best apology would to be stop neglecting. No words can fix that. You can express a willingness to be a different person, to try, to want to be different but without action its just a bunch of bullshit. Words mean noting without action.

Change your actions first. Then choose your words carefully once she sees it.

@Punxi that would be being around her as often as I used to. But then again I don't know if I'd need to talk to her as much as I used to since things changed like my career situation after graduating at college.

I think the most important thing for me to [i]hear[/i] would be acknowledgement and plans for immediate change, followed by change. If someone apologizes but then it stays the same, it would seem to me that they just don’t care.

@itsok Since I graduated I do focus on both keeping my intermediate job until finding a proper one, on the other hand I do focus on preparing for that following job whenever I get home from recent work.

Anyway I don't dare interfering in her ongoing love life. She went with a jerk who she doesn't even want to move in to. She trusted me with so much about her life and has future plans which that jerk obviously can't help with. I could wait for her to leave him again, but until then I'd need to stay around and wait for her. Like she had to for the past 4 years..

@scooogy good luck to you. That sounds like a painful situation with a lot of bad timing.

@itsok I knew when she was single again. But I worried for my job and so I had to focus on my life..

Actions, that’s how you apologize

@Jeephikelove even if she's in a "relationship" with a jerk?

@scooogy well that’s on her

Change and fix it or lose it.
