I think apologies differ in value depending on the intent of who is offering it and their ability to atone as well as where the person on the receiving end is in the process of dealing with their hurt.

Apologies don't necessarily have to be accepted, I agree. I also think we apologise just so we let the person know we're willing to let things go, we admit our faults and acknowledge their feelings. I can only apologise when I'm genuine like that.

I agree! I try to only apologize when I really mean it. Because a fake apology is worse than no apology to me...I want the apology after a true reflection of self
