The Black Mama Apology

It’s barely an apology at all. But for the sake of an explanation, let’s just call it that.

It’s more than likely seen as a narcissistic characteristic trait.

I call it the black mama apology but the giver of this type of apology can range from race to race.

The concept is basically when someone does something wrong to you; treats you wrong, says something mean, any kind of abuse. And in turn, instead of apologizing for it, they do something nice for you.

For example:

You made plans with someone and they don’t show up. You waited around for over an hour and then decided to leave. You call that person and let them know how disappointed you are for being stood up. That is clearly their opportunity to apologize. Instead, they say something like “hey, want to go get ice cream? My treat!”

Yea you want ice cream but you also want an explanation.

If you can relate to this type of apology, leave some likes or respond to this.
