    If you say sorry to someone and they laughed at you, what would you do (Ex: You once bullied someone and then once you say sorry with your heart they laugh at you.).
    (This happened to Me and unfortunately now I feel completely nothing)

    hmm welp if they laughed at you, maybe they're nto taking you seriously, but if you dont feel anything perhaps you don't really care.
    If someone laughed at me after i just poured my heart to them.. first I'd be a little dumb struck, but you have to realize that may be you and this person where never meant to be friends..but you also have to look at the part where you were the one who bullied the other...psh dont take this personal, but i wouldnt take you seriously either.
    Just brush it off and go on with life... i never spend to much time trying to make sure in cool with one perosn, when there are millions of people in this world.

    I'd suck it up. If I hadn't done anything wrong I wouldn't have to apologize. Don't take my apology seriously? Very well, all the more reason for me not to make the same mistake again.

    I wrote a note my friend in class once saying "I'm sorry" and she ripped it up and threw it out.
    Then later I told her I was sorry in person and she said she would 'consider' my apology.
    I didn't even doing anything bad enough for her to do that anyway.
    Needless to say I don't talk to her anymore.
    But,I sucked it up and acted like it didn't bother me,even if it did.

    My mom has told me multiple times that, after a certain age, "I'm sorry" no longer cuts it. After all, they're only words. Unless you have the actions to back them up, they mean nothing. I could murder someone, apologize for it, and (hypothetically) get off the hook, then go murder someone else.

    Now, if the person is not willing to give you another chance action-wise either, that's their own fault, not yours.

    It's a good thing sometimes to come clean and resolve to apologize for some misdeed done. Especially if it's for something like bullying and coming to realize how wrong it was. However, if the person at the time just scoffs it off, I would not get mad at him or her. After all, I tormented the person for a while so that person has a reason to emotionally not be set to just say 'it's cool'. Through your actions, you can prove yourself a changed person, where words don't always cut it. If someone doesn't let things go after that point, let them be and move on. The person holds grudges and you should not bother to hold one against him or her for not forgiving you. You did the best you could to prove the point and if things work out bad between you, it's now on the other person who will not let things go.

    I hope things work out for you. It takes a big person to apologize for something like bullying, and to even see the error in it. You're going in the right direction and don't let some hiccups slow you down.

    Don't worry about it. If they laugh, they laugh. It's no big deal.
