Maybe even you.
But it's just the way I am. The way WE are. We're all human, and we're bound to make mistakes and not think about things, think about how they'll affect others or what causes they will actually have. So people fight, and sometimes they just don't come back out of it again.
People say sorry is a word that is tossed around too much. I'm probably an example of that, the amount of times I apologise to people over things I've done. But when used in a correct situation, sorry can mean absolutely everything.
Sorry can mean that everything gets better. Sorry can mean you are the better person for having the guts to stand up and admit you made a mistake. Sorry can bring back the friend you truly miss, even gain you some more. It takes a lot to go up to someone and say: "Okay, I admit I made a mistake by doing this to you, and I am very sorry." But it can mean so much to someone.
Fights keep breaking out in MSP really easily, over the smallest comments just because people don't think things through. Friends turn against friends and then the entire thing turns to chaos and nasty remarks spanning over several forums, properganda movies going against each other and even strange looks of people being made.
It's not fair to pull MSP in half just so two people can settle a feud. It's not fair to make your friends choose sides to fight their battles on. Does anyone ever really think how drastic blows become in situations like this?
So yes, what I'm asking you to do is to turn around the the person you have wronged (weather over something you or they did. If you were shouting and getting cross, you are in the wrong) and apologise to them. Tell them you are sorry for all the comments and the movies and the backstabbing and the hurt.
Wait for their reply. If they apologise back and end it, come out of it a stronger person with a better friendship.
If they don't, then it's time for you to move on. You had the guts to apologise, so backing down does not make you the looser. It makes you the better person.
Here are two examples from people I have had spats with. The first is smileymiley4444. We have forgiven each other:
The second is from lisa kiss. I know some of you will probably still be offended but she said sorry. She at least deserves my forgivness for doing that:
The word 'Sorry' is a gift.
Use it wisely. You won't regret it.
Have we ever fought Missy?xx Im not sure :s

Nope. Don't think so XD
DeleteGO MISSM xD
ReplyDeleteIf it wasn't called rude, copyright, and just plain RUDE, I would so copy most of this (not the bit about certain people) onto my blog at this point xD Lol. But DW I'm not gonna do that :P x
It's not copyright Dolly XD
DeleteI wouldn't mind if you asked :3
Good Speech Missy :D
ReplyDeleteThat's a great speech, MissM. But sometimes sorry doesn't mean anything/much at all. For example, you just murdered your girlfriend and unborn baby, sorry is not enough. Although, in situations when you've had a fall-out or called someone a name, sorry has the ability to make someone forgive. But I just HATE it when someone tells both of the people fighting to say sorry to each other, and they both say: "I won't say sorry until she/he does" or "I didn't do anything! SHE/HE has to say it!"... That person got involved and told everyone to be on their side and to hate on the other person... They're JUST as guilty. And for the person who hasn't even got the GUTS to say sorry himself/herself is just plain rude. It's not so difficult to say sorry!

DeleteGood point Jenny,
Deletebut I was thinking more of FRIENDSHIP disputes. If we go into ethical questions, some people will probably get lost.
I do R.E for GCSE so yeah XD.
Still this is just because I'm getting sick of sorting out problems which can be solved with a simple sorry, and not weeks of fighting each other >.<
I know, right? And I know it must be REALLY annoying for you when users mention you in the arguments. They think you'll ALWAYS be there to solve their problems, but the truth is that they'll have to do it themselves... They can't rely on a person to pick the person who was right. I'm just relieved that there aren't much argument/hate forums on MSP as there were in the beginning of 2012. People just like to take the stupid things to the extreme, like someone said to another person: "I will not give you a gift because you keep annoying me and forcing me to"... the other person overreacts and that starts an argument. then the person starts to turn that one simple sentence into someone rude and horrible. Then the over person sees and writes back. Then they both just turn that into a massive argument, until someone (or they both) get hurt. That's called cyber bullying. It would've never happened if they didn't say sorry. It would be so simple and nobody's feelings would be hurt. Simples. :D

ReplyDeleteI know what you mean. Me and Valky have fights all the times, but sometimes... Sorry isn't enough.
ReplyDeleteAnd when that does happen, I go over and spend some quality time with her so that she knows that I love her no matter what.
I absolutly LUUV this post. You are amazing Missy. The things that you are going throuh at the moment must be really hard, but to stay strong during it all... You are my idol. My role model. And I couldn't think of anyone being a better role model then you.
I would like to say sorry, to everyone who I have ever been mean to or I have upset over the past few years....
I love everyone, (Well, mostly everyone) on MSP.
Thankyou!
I sometimes get angry like that too... like me and bob boy ! argued alot. I thought for a bit then I said sorry abut he wouldn't forgive me.
