Never apologizing is a sign of weakness in one's character if that's what you're asking.

Where is this make-believeland where husband's and wives have sex after a fight where no apologies were made?


My wife is a huge conflict avoider, so sex is how she apologizes, I’m definitely one of the lucky ones

Isn’t it “never say sorry” not “never apologize”?

Stubborness isn't a sign of strength. It generally leads to a very unimportant hill some people are willing to die upon.

When you screw up, admit and move on.

I had an ex in college like this. Took a bit for me to fully understand it to take advantage. BUT when she let me do something we hadnt dont after not that big of a deal argument the "light bulb" went off. Ha.

As to this thread...all the married guys in this thread having sex now? Would think after a certain amount of years a woman couldnt use something as punishment that isnt happening anyway. Ha.

Let me get this straight. You believe you can be wrong, refuse to admit it to your SO, refuse to apologize (when you are admittedly wrong), then expect them to crave and enjoy sex with you?



No no no, maybe I wasn’t clear.

I’m saying, in general, the use of sex as reward/punishment in a relationship isn’t a healthy dynamic. Physical intimacy should be because you want each other. Just because you are having a disagreement isn’t a reason to not have sex. And often times what can be a tense situation can be alleviated by some hot, sweaty, bestial sex. Scratching and pulling hair, getting all that negative energy out in a positive way.

And apologies come in the afterglow.

I’m not suggesting that if you are wrong you shouldn’t apologize. I’m saying that using sex as currency to get your partner to think like you want is a fundamentally flawed way of looking at things.

It’s what frigid people do.

False. If you are wrong and need to apologize, you should do it. It's not a sign of weakness. More of a sign of strength actually.

Never apologize to an arsehole
Never apologize to a Thot, Instasloot, Etc

Pick and choose when to apologize to your boss

Always apologize to your wife, serious GF, and loved ones when you frick up

There is nothing wrong with apologizing for something you did wrong or saying something wrong. It's just stupid to not put an end to the wrong.

False......recognizing when you are wrong and making it right is a sign of strength - - not weakness.

It's weaker to be so insecure you pretend you've never made a mistake or done something wrong.

If I screw up, I'll apologize. I'm human and make mistakes. Owning your mistakes is a good quality.

I can't understand how people think it's stronger not to apologize when you've obviously ****ed up. Everyone around you usually knows you ****ed up, so you're not exactly helping yourself.

Absolutely false. If you never apologize for things you do, it just makes you an a-hole.

Neither.

There is a gray area. There are times when you have to suck it up and apologize. Don't over apologize, that is a sign of weakness. But if you truly frick up and it had an impact on someone else, I think it is appropriate to explain to them and give them an apology. But you want to be the person that when you apologize, it means something because it is rare for you to do so.

False. If you are wrong and everyone knows you’re wrong and you don’t apologize and admit your mistake then you look like an idiot and you lose WAY more respect then if you just said sorry and moved along.

On the flip side, don’t say sorry 20 times a day, it looks weak.
