If I'm in the wrong, I definitely say sorry. a stupid thing like pride shouldn't get in the way of someone admitting they were wrong. People have fallen out for years over the person in the wrong refusing to say sorry. It's not worth it.

It depends on what you are wrong about really... Something you have faith in would be something that I would feel comfortable standing my ground on. But when an honest mistake has been made there is no shame in admitting to being wrong. It could save you from something worse, like a fight. Being stubborn is usually not a good idea.

If I really feel I am in the wrong I will say sorry, but again if I think something is right I will most certainly stand my ground..

I look at the situation and try to understand the point of the other person. If I am wrong, I apologise and accept. If I feel i am right, I stand my ground.

If your WRONG, then your wrong. Step up to the plate and say so. And while your at it, you can also say Oh by the way I am so sorry I did or said that. Try it, it'll show how grown up and mature you are. Good Luck.

I definately apologize. I also let the person know that I am aware of what I did or said that wasn't right, and let him/her know that I will do my best to work on my end of things.
If I feel correct in my argument, I still apologize for my part in the lack of peacfulness. I like to admit I am wrong, otherwise, I would consider myself cold and unapproachful.

depends on if I am totaly in the wrong or not. If I was absolutly wrong on all accounts then I will apologise. If I was half or partialy wrong I will talk it out. If I wasnt far off then I would probably call it close enuf and not say anything.

I hate people who say sorry because most don't mean it. The word sorry doesn't ever fix anything. I prefer to try to make things better, fix the wrong. If I say sorry, I make sure I mean it.

If I am in the wrong and know it, I apologize. To stand your ground when you already know you are wrong is foolish.

Yes if i am wrong i will nt hesitate to tell sorry. Let it be anyone, my boss, my family, my friends or my subordinates. There is nthing wrong in accepting mistakes bcos we learn from mistakes only.
