Know that you have no control over what happens next. Your apology may be accepted, but it may not. Or it may take them a little time to truly forgive you. If you enter the conversation thinking that the apology guarantees you a happy ending or means you’ll both move on and pretend this never happened, you may be disappointed. Try to come from a place of humility and open-heartedness; if you do, it will come through. Regardless of the outcome, you should be proud of yourself for apologizing.
