Here’s the Stuff your sorries in a sack, mister post from the last time I tried to break the habit.
Will the S-word jar work? What other words should I use instead? My boss suggested “I understand.” A guy friend suggested nothing, to just pause and say nothing. What do you think?
Stylishly yours,

I understand is a great substitute for I’m sorry.
You could also use, “oops!” with a giggle which would then cause you and the person you are talking with to start to giggle and then they would forget why they are talking to you about the situation in the first place. LOL
Or you could always just avoid the people that constantly put you in the position to make you feel like you have to say you are sorry all the time.
SO guilty!!!!
It’s definitely a chick thing.
Instead of the “s-word” what if you tried saying “I can’t please everyone.”? It would reaffirm that to you and let the person you’re talking know you’re sincere but unapologetic.
