Doubling-Down, Pt 1

Got a lotta time to think and write. Let me tell you a story about a dude I know.

\n

Do you remember when I gave you that three-step PSA on how to apologize?

\n
    \n
  1. The words: \u201cI\u2019m sorry.\u201d
  2. \n
  3. Some manifestation of contrition: \u201cI feel awful about what I did; there\u2019s no excuse.\u201d
  4. \n
  5. Some overt act to try make things right again: "I'll make it up to you. Let's go to counseling."
  6. \n
\n

I submit that a lotta lonely people are the ones that don't understand that apologies are a three-step process.
