getting my spouse to forgive me

Did Your Apology Fail?
150 150 Lee H. Baucom, Ph.D.

What if your spouse didn’t respond to your apology?  Is it over?  Did it fail?  Has your marriage failed?  Let’s talk about it.You apologized to your spouse… maybe on your own, or maybe because I suggested it.

And…

Nothing.  Nada.  Zero.  Zilch.

No change, no difference.

Does that mean that your efforts are over?  That your attempts to save your marriage are a failure?

Just to reassure you, an apology letter with no response does not necessarily mean it was a failure.  And it sure doesn’t mean that your efforts are over.

This week, I am answering Chris’s questions about an apology letter “fail.”  If you have a question, you can submit it at [email protected] for consideration.
