You don't pay evil with evil, but kindness doesn't work with some people. See... some people need to feel what they made you experience, so they know what it's like to live with the struggles and emotions they have put you through. Some people are such hypocrites, they're narcissistic and won't think twice before causing you harm.
What is the point of an apology? To me... it's when you truly feel remorse and express it, as a promise of not making the same mistakes again. Sometimes, Apologies don't fix anything, they may not even be honest and heartfelt. The things we do could easily affect someone without us even realizing.
Imagine you make a mistake and apologise to the person you hurt. Everything is okay, right? But what if you make that mistake again? They may forgive you again, but slowly, they'll lose their trust for you. Saying "sorry" doesn't fix anything unless you mean it and not make the same mistakes again.
Empty promises and constant apologies can wear someone down, leaving them feeling unimportant and emotionally drained. Over time, trust fades, and the words that once held hope begin to feel hollow, deepening the hurt instead of healing it.
Making promises you can't keep are just as useless as an empty apology. When you promise a change in yourself to be better, someone has hope in you, and by breaking your promise, you betray their trust and overtime their perspective on you changes to worse. To them, you aren't the same person anymore.
Unfortunately, I have net a few people like that. People who I trusted with my whole heart, but got backstabbed by. They proved to me that no one is trustworthy enough, not even the people closest to you. People who have helped you could ruin you without a second thought, and that exactly what a certain someone did to me a while ago...
