How to Show Your Girlfriend You Are Sorry

Show your girlfriend you care by committing to make a change.

A conflict is never really resolved until someone apologizes. If you have done something to upset your girlfriend, tell her you are sorry, even if don't feel you did anything wrong. Trust is an important part of relationships and once you have broken trust it can be hard to earn again. Show her you deserve her forgiveness by displaying remorse.

Instructions

1. Admit fault if you know you did something wrong. Saying "I'm sorry" without meaning it is not going to cut it. If you truly feel that you did nothing wrong, focus your apology on her feelings. Tell her you are sorry she was hurt by your actions.

2. Buy her a bouquet of her favorite flowers. This may be the oldest trick in the book, but it will show her she means a lot to you, and that you don't want to lose her.

3. Write her a letter. It can be hard to apologize to someone's face, especially if she is upset and won't let you get a word in. Take the time to write her a letter and tell her how you feel.

4. Plan a romantic dinner. Prepare your girlfriend's favorite food and set up a romantic table with candles and wine. A picnic in the park would also work well.

5. Write her a poem or even a song about how sorry you are and what she means to you.
