No. If I'm ready to forgive someone I do it. If I'm not, I don't. I'm not going to put someone through some stupid kind of eloquence litmus test when I decide whether to accept their apology.

Not even...say..looking you in the eyes?

If so, that's weak, man.

What's weak is being swayed that someone is deserving of forgiveness by their words if I don't feel that in my heart. Sorry if that was sarcasm.
