Right, I gotcha. At least I think I do. My world's pretty different from yours, we don't handle this sort of thing in the same way. See, there's rarely any uncertainty when it comes to making amends. If you significantly fuck up, you'd better be ready to shed some blood to make up for it. Apologies aren't just pretty words lacking substance. You have to prove you're sorry with more than just feelings. Because otherwise, how can you tell the difference between someone who's genuine and someone who isn't? And if somebody wrongs you...and I mean REALLY, unforgivably wrongs you...you make them fucking pay for it. Eye for an eye.
But even having grown up in that sort of world, the idea that everyone deserves to at least have one person care about them... It has a nice appeal to it. I want to say I agree with you, but I can't.
