My thought is ........ do not be sorry ......be careful ......it will always cause problems ........be careful before you engage you mouth........ and your mind ........i do not believe in the word sorry!!!!! .....ever .....you said it it ....it is done .......and cannot be ...... unsorried .....i never ever ....... accept apologies from someone ( i will tell them it is okay ...but really it is not it cannot be undone ..)....... saying they are sorry !!!!!! .....a word ........or maybe a few ...can destroy a lifetime friendship .....what can take 5 seconds to say or wrtie ......can destroy years of trust if a person does it once ....they will do it again!!!!! ...human trait simple .....as justin beiber sings in his song ......."it's too late now to say sorry !!!!"........
It is like the equivalent of handing more bullets to the person .......... that tried to shoot you with a gun .......

USA gymnastics royalty McKayla Maroney has become embroiled in the bitter feud between Simone Biles and MyKayla Skinner that exploded in the wake of Team USA's gold on Tuesday.
Biles, along with Suni Lee, Jordan Chiles, and Jade Carey, dominated the field in the artistic gymnastic team finals in Paris, winning by nearly five-and-a-half points over Italy.
On her Instagram afterwards, Biles posted a picture of the team with a brutal caption – 'lack of talent, lazy, olympic champions' – which came as a response to a comment Skinner posted online prior to the Paris Games.
In a now-deleted YouTube video, Skinner blasted the team of Biles, Chiles, Lee, Carey, and Hezly Rivera for not having the right 'work ethic.'
But former Team USA star and 2012 gold medalist Maroney has now taken sides with Biles as she took to Instagram to offer her own opinion.
Former Team USA star McKayla Maroney has weighed in, and she's firmly with Simone Biles
'It doesn't get more iconic than this,' Maroney wrote on Instagram in response to Biles' post. 'She f'd around n found out fr.'
Maroney then joked about sharing a moniker with Skinner.
'Feels like I need to apologize just to redeem my first name,' she wrote.
Skinner, who won silver on the vault at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, has been under fire for her comments about her former teammates.
'Besides Simone, I feel like the talent and the depth just isn't like what it used to be,' the 27-year-old said on YouTube.
'The girls just don't have the work ethic,' Skinner continued before referencing the US Center for SafeSport - a non-profit organization set up to reduce sexual and emotional abuse of athletes in US Olympic sports.
'And it's hard too because of SafeSport. Like, coaches can't get on athletes and they have to be really careful what they say,' Skinner said.
'Which, in some ways, is really good. But at the same time, to get to where you need to be in gymnastics you do have to be, I feel like, a little aggressive and a little intense.'

Maroney joked that she needs to apologize just for sharing a first name with Skinner
In the immediate aftermath of that, Biles clapped back at Skinner, writing on Threads, 'not everyone needs a mic and a platform'.
Biles and a number of other gymnasts, including Chiles, Lee, and Carey, all blocked Skinner on social media after her comments.
Skinner would later go on to apologize.
'I want to formally apologize to Team USA and to our gymnastic community for my comments during my recent YouTube episodes of the gymnastics Olympic trials. It was not my intention to offend or disrespect any of the athletes or to take away from their hard work,' Skinner's apology from July 6 read.
She continued, 'Upon reflection I was comparing the 'Marta [Karolyi] era' to the current era.
'I am coming to terms that I have not fully dealt with the emotional and verbal abuse I endured under Marta that perhaps led to my hurtful comments. I take full responsibility for what I said and I deeply apologize.'
