| i always start a sentence with it. Why i dont know | |

| Saying sorry just runs out of my mouth. Even when I'm not sorry, I feel like I have to because apologizing profusely is the socially accepted norm. But really, by limiting your usage of "sorry" you can be more sincere because when you do say it, people really know that you mean it. | |

| I agree! I've started paying attention to how much I say it, and I say it a lot. New resolution: limit "I'm sorry" and "like" in vocabulary. | |

| Wow...I always thought of myself as being pretty assertive, but I do find myself saying "sorry" way too much. It's not that I say it when someone is trying to find a source to a problem, but more apologizing for certain character traits I possess that others may not be used to (getting really excited about something or exuding a lot of passion around folks a little more reserved). After reading this article, I'm going to be really conscious of the amount of times I say "sorry" for no reason because the way you language yourself cannot only reflect the way you feel about yourself, but can also affect the way you feel about yourself. | |
