Ladys, when your upset with your s/o, do you prefer for him to be calling you over and over telling you sorry, sending you flowers or do you prefer for him to tell you hes sorry once and give you time to cool off"?
none of the above.
assuming that you f'ed up... allow cool off time first, then apologize.
flowers, gifts, etc. should be used as an unexpected show of appreciation. IMO it is not healthy to reconcile conflict with material gifts.
I won't kiss anyone's posterior for any reason. What I will do, if I'm in the wrong, is apologize and try my best not to repeat my error.
If I could only achieve "forgiveness" through the anatomical justaposition of obicularis-oris muscles with glutious maximi I'd make a quick advance to the rear, and I don't mean hers!
I think a cooling off period is best for both parties in the situation. In the middle of an argument, I might say something that bothers you--I may either simply know it bothers you, or I might actually believe it to be true.
Either way, I prefer not to fight with my SO at all, because I'd rather not find reasons to use things that hurt her against her.

Once people have been together long enough and know each other I find it hard to imagine having that big of a misunderstanding or unknown difference. Just my opinion
I agree with you, unless makeup sex in involved after the fight.
I like to cool off, tho, that's tough for my dh. He suffers when I'm angry with him and this is distracting, so we often have to compromise. I think his way is best. Nip it in the bud before any festering starts. OTOH, we don't get into it too much. I think our age comes into play. We don't have the energy.
Depends on the fight/his status. If he is just being fretful and not making sense....calls for cooling off w/ violent Tarantino films. If its an actual discussion then its gone at until it dissolves in laugher.
Sorrys are such crap to me. I reject them. So many people say it, yet none really mean it. They only utter it to absolve thier own negative feelings.
