Aries

The apology that was never offered tells you something specific about what you were dealing with, and that something is more useful than the apology would have been. When someone cannot or will not acknowledge what they did, they are showing you the exact size of the gap between their version of events and yours. You can stop waiting for them to close that gap and start working with the information it gives you instead. The clarity comes not from what they refuse to say, but from what their refusal makes visible about how they move through the world when the stakes involve admitting they were wrong.
