An apology is nothing more than to admit to the other that they won, even if they did not to make them feel better. an apology really does nothing because the person still hate you. Everybody always said in school, apologize, why? I meant what I said, I'm still right, why should one apologise.
Serious what does apology do but should a sign of weakness
Oh, I don't think that's true. Apologies can mend fences. An apology makes the hurt person feel cared about rather than treated badly and then just forgotten. It can make a difference.
If you hurt someone and then apologize, that person has not "won." What does that mean? I'm not understanding that. Won what?

An apology is a honest acknowledgement that you did something that caused hurt to another. A genuine apology is just as beneficial to the person doing the apologizing as it is to the person on the receiving end. It allows for both to let go of the bad feelings and move forward. It's freeing to the soul. It's most definitely not a sign of weakness. I respect those who can admit when they are wrong. I can forgive them to.
The worst thing about ANY apology is from a person who doesn't learn from their reason why they had to apologize.
They make the same mistake or say the same rude thing/s over and over again. No matter how sorry they are, the apologies end up falling on deaf ears after a while.
Getting a fake apology is annoying, maybe even anger-inducing. But at least you know the person is acknowledging (however inappropriately) you were upset. If you get no apology, there's always the possibility the wrong-doer is unaware of the hurt that has taken place and you wait for the same behavior to happen again.
An attempt at even a fake apology shows more respect than no apology which says, "I don't give a ****".
An apology implies you regret your words or actions. What if you have done nothing wrong? For example, what if a friend is convinced you stole something from her and is feelin hurt but you are innocent. Would you apologize? The person believing they deserve an apology isn't always right.
Getting no apology is worse to me. At least with a fake apology, I can take solace with the fact that the "guilty" party is doing something they don't want to do.
