Sorry means,... you regret the actions that you have just inflicted and want to apologise to who ever it is that was involved. It means that you genuinely don't want to do it again.
Sorry, can't help you.
Sorry means .. u recognise that you are in the wrong %26amp; apologise for your actions/words.


However, it means 'jack' if you dont also promise not to let it happen again.





A wise old boss once told me: Never say sorry followed by a 'but'! Coz it completely neutralises the word 'sorry'

So just say sorry if u mean it %26amp; nothing when u dont!
