Apologizing without confessing or admitting wrongdoing
One of the common mistakes in apologies is failing to confess or admit wrongdoing. People often say 'I'm sorry' without acknowledging the harm they caused or explaining what they will do to make it right.

It is important to avoid explaining why you did the hurtful action and focus on taking responsibility for your part in the problem.
