Foot-in-Mouth......


Yes,, I am plagued with this disorder. I sometimes say or write things before I fully think them through, thus I end up not only with "egg on my face" but, I have inserted my foot in my mouth all the way my hind parts.
I'm not a "name dropper" but there is someone whom I hope will read this and know that I am Truly and Sincerely sorry for a statement I made. I got caught up in the moment and I inadvertently offend them.
I humbly ask that you accept my Apology. You need not respond this blog but if you wish, you may send a private note thus keeping this between us.

Again,,,, I am Truly very sorry.

I hope the target of your blog reads it, and accepts your apology.
We all make mistakes, but not everyone will accept an apology. That's their problem then.

BTW, not everyone can send a private message unless first receiving one from someone who can.
There is a work around that though, in the blogs. If you quote someone and then delete it, it will still appear in the 'where I'm quoted' section and the person who was quoted can see it, but others can't.

As you can see by the responses, you're not the only one who occasionally suffers from the dreaded foot-in-mouth, myself included. It is obvious your apology is sincere and hopefully will be accepted as such. As MrsJoe states, if your apology isn't accepted, then sadly that's their problem.

Lilium I respectfully disagree with your statement concerning an offended person not accepting a regret apology----- then he or she becomes the bearer of a problem.

An offended person is not obligated or required in any way to accept a regret apology and the problem lies totally with the offending party.

In fact the offended party can choose to rise above the whole thing and move on without another thought about it.

Apologies rest with those who feel they need to make them.
You can not move guilt to an offended party. If you could every battered woman in the world would be feeling very guilty about now.

Party On! LOL

JW, there is a HUGE difference between occasional "foot in mouth" statements, and battered women. The first is often hasty and a mistake and a whole hearted apology can be offered.
The latter could never be covered with a simple apology.

Mrs Joe as I said -----an offender is the sole bearer of the problem when he or she wants to apologize for (whatever) reason.

The offended bears no responsibility and for anyone to suggest that a burden of guilt or anything else is placed on the offended is totally absurd.

AGAIN----simple or monumental----a refusal to accept ANY apology ----DOES NOT place a burden on the offended person as Lil suggested.

You should preach to someone else who believes guilt is inherent. I do not buy into that.

FUTHERMORE -----IF a battered woman refused to accept an apology or multiple apologies SHE would not be saddled with the problem.

THE POINT IS GUILT CAN NOT BE TRANSFERED TO AN INNOCENT PARTY.

Mrs Joe I hope you get it>>>>>>>>>> guilt---GUILT-----GUILT-----It can not be passed to the innocent who who was not the perpetrator.

REGARDLESS of the offense.

Redundant enough?????
Pray on LOL

Folks,,, I beg you Please,, this blog was meant to offer an apology to someone whom I offended with an ill timed and somewhat inappropriate comment, not trigger a debate as to guilt or innocence.
IF the person for whom this was intended chooses not to accept, then that is their choice and I will respect it with no ill will or hard feelings towards them.
I will endeavor to pay closer attention to a conversation and try NOT to read more into it.
I thank you all who responded.

Rebel - you're right. My apologies for my thoughtless remark (as you can see, I'm a slow learner).
