My husband, on some level, is sorry when he apologizes. But a lot of the time, he comes to me with bogus apologies. He says, "Baby, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have acted like that." But then goes on and on about why he thinks that behavior is justified. And he'll apologize several times during the course of an argument before he is genuinely sorry.
So that prompts me to ask: would you rather an empty apology or none at all?
