Understanding the Inappropriate Use of Apologies

Apologies are often used instinctively in various situations, but their inappropriate use can negatively impact self-esteem. Apologies should not be used to manage people's opinions or seek reassurance. Instead, they should be reserved for situations where one intentionally hurts, teases, disrespects, or breaks something that belongs to someone else. They can also be used when someone is unfair, harsh, or engages in behavior they know is wrong. Using apologies appropriately helps build connections and fosters self-awareness.
