I apologize when I'm wrong, and I'm always the first to openly own my mess. I take full responsibility for every weird, impulsive, questionable thing l've ever done. But I will never apologize for reacting to deliberate provocation. That's when you step up, face yourself, and take accountability for your choices. Accountability doesn't magically appear just because you look innocent enough. And no, don't tell me it just happened, you planned it in your head. Rehearsed it, justified it, and convinced yourself you'd get away with it. You knew exactly what you were doing, and you understood the consequences clearly. You just assumed you were entitled enough to walk away untouched. Too bad for you, that's precisely when I entered the conversation. And I'm equally entitled to remind you hote fast reality responds when challenged.
