- ADMIT YOU ARE WRONG
Many grown-ups are not humble enough to admit to their fault. Will you mess up your love just because of your pride? - EXPLAIN WHY YOU DID WHAT YOU DID
Give the background sequence of events that led to you being on the wrong. A blank apology doesn’t address the issue - HEAR FROM YOUR PARTNER HOW HE/SHE FEELS
Allow your partner to vent, cry, shout, and tell you how much your actions/words pain him/her. Emotions and hurt shouldn’t be hidden if true reconciliation and healing are to occur. This also shows you care for your partner’s feelings - SAY SORRY
Let your partner hear you say those words, ‘I am sorry, please forgive me’ - COMMIT TO NOT DOING IT AGAIN
Say you won’t repeat the mistake and mean it. An apology is empty if it’s not sincere - HEAR FROM YOUR PARTNER IF YOU ARE FORGIVEN
Get to hear your partner tell you ‘I forgive you’. It has to be official - THANK YOUR SPOUSE FOR FORGIVING YOU
Appreciate the goodness of your partner’s heart to forgive you. It takes love to overlook your wrong, don’t take that for granted - AGREE ON A PLAN TO KEEP THE WRONG FROM BEING REPEATED
This is why it is important to know the history that led to you doing or saying wrong; you two get to agree on what to do to prevent it from happening again - SEAL IT WITH A KISS
Kiss as soon you are given an official forgiveness. Now that your partner has forgiven you, your lips will be well-received - MAKE LOVE
Your spouse’s heart feels safe because you care, you feel pardoned; make passionate love to bring you two even closer. Make-up sex - DO SOMETHING SWEET
Go out of your way to make your partner smile: leave a love note under the pillow, buy her flowers or a gift, cook his favourite meal, take a photo of the both of you happy and frame it, cater to each other❤️❤️
