Did anyone ever get in trouble for not accepting apologies? I remember getting bullied in school and when the teacher asked if I accepted the apology I said no because that person will do it again and somehow I was in more trouble than the bully

That’s so stupid. I struggle when others don’t forgive me and I don’t get closure. I ruminate and feel bad about it, but with that being said such a clear power imbalance over you refusing to give closure is just so stupid

To give more context I told the teacher that he will just do it again so his apology isn’t true and that’s why I won’t accept it but I don’t go with the program because apparently Youre just supposed to so that things look good instead being good. To this day I still don’t understand why that’s a thing

Tbh you’re right. It’s not a true apology if you know that he won’t actually change his behavior, but we also live in a society where just basic accountability is seen as weakness
