when saying sorry is not enough....
 

What can you do when saying sorry is not enough?

Like when you've hurt somebody you care about so badly that simple words won't have any effect, and when you're too far away to do anything...

Please help...:(

Actions speak louder than words.
Time heals all wounds.
Quitters never win, winners never quit, don't quit when you're ahead unless it's impossible to move farther forward.

Show it, don't say it, give it time, don't give up

Maybe send a gift that expresses your thoughts & feelings
and that you do care about them & theirs

send gifts, do SOMETHING. Whatever you do don't just give up, I think girls always want to be comforted--maybe sorry won't fix it but if you just leave it alone I don't think it will help(in most cases)

A good session of cunnilingus always wins.

You have to give something from your heart, a peom, note, what every, but it's got to come from you.

I completely agree with absorbentishe and can only add use your own handwriting and whatever the gift(if you choose to give one) be made by you.

Words may not be enough, but you have to start somewhere, right?

Without knowing more about the situation, 1. do whatever it takes to clean up after yourself - all the things people have been suggesting: write a letter/poem, apologize profusely, send a gift, whatever. 2. promise never to do whatever you did again. 3. if necessary, and if it wouldn't make the other person not trust you, and if you've already done the things above, a grand gesture is often a good tonic for poisoned friendships: fly there and apologize in person, send 5 dozen roses to where (she?) works, whatever. Do whatever it takes to make things right again, and make sure the other person knows how sincere you are and how sorry you are.

A flower a day, each with an apology

Some times you CAN'T do anything.
Some times Time is the only remedy.

But heartfelt words go a long way
If you really fucked up *gifts* can be trite and actually backfire.

I agree with Antagony, go the cunnilingus path; unless it's a close relative you've pissed off. In that case, don't worry about it. They're family. They HAVE to forgive you.

Book a plane ticket. Apologise in person.
