How to Apologize to a Sagittarius Man

A quick apology is sometimes all that’s needed when apologizing to a Sagittarius man.

He is the type of person who will accept a simple, “I’m sorry,” following most arguments.

If he knows that you didn’t hurt him on purpose, he’ll also be more likely to forgive you.

If you don’t push his buttons and show that you respect him, he’ll know you’re sorry before you even say it.

When you do need to apologize, do it with compassion and with respect. Show him that you care and that you truly didn’t want to upset him.

Don’t Push His Buttons

If you want to avoid having to apologize to a Sagittarius in the first place, don’t push his buttons!

If you know something bothers him, don’t do it. Even if you are upset with him or you two are arguing, don’t do things to purposely antagonize him.

Arguing with a Sagittarius man for the sake of arguing is always a bad idea. If you know something makes him angry, don’t get him riled up on purpose.

It’s easy to say things in the heat of the moment when you’re mad at somebody. Do whatever you can to watch what you say and argue fairly.

Sagittarius men can be forgiving people but a Scorpio man will be less likely to forgive you if he knows you pushed his buttons on purpose.

Teasing is fine sometimes but be careful. When a Sagittarius man ignores you, you’ve pushed him too far. You need to back off.

Respect His Boundaries

If a Sagittarius man is acting distant, respect his boundaries. Don’t push him and don’t bother him. If you do, you may just end up with more to apologize for.

He needs time to calm down and clear his end following an argument. He doesn’t usually need a lot of time so you shouldn’t need to wait long.

If he says he doesn’t want to talk about something yet, respect that. He’ll talk to you when he’s ready.

If a Sagittarius man is pulling away from you, there is probably a reason why. He doesn’t do things for no reason. You might need to figure out what the problem is.

When you do find the problem, apologize! Get that out of the way and then talk to him about what you can do to make it better.

Apologize Quickly

When a Sagittarius man is mad at you, you need to apologize as quickly as you can. Even if he wants some space, he wants to know that you’re sorry right off the bat.

As soon as you realize you’ve pushed him too far, back off immediately. Quickly let him know that you realize you did something wrong and that you’re sorry for it.

If you two have just had a small argument, that quick apology might be all he needs. Sometimes, simply saying, “I’m sorry,” is all he needs to hear to forgive you.

Other times, the quick apology is just a precursor to a deeper apology.

He needs to know at the moment that you regret whatever you said or did to him. He may also need some more time to cool off so that he can have a deeper conversation with you about the problem later.

Understand Him

Try to see things from his perspective. If you don’t try to understand his thoughts and feelings, you two are likely to keep having the same arguments.

You don’t want to have to apologize for the same thing multiple times! You can do this by understanding why he was upset in the first place.

Be open to the idea that you may have legitimately been in the wrong. If you two were arguing and you still think you’re right, at least try to understand why his opinion differs from yours.

When you show him that you’re trying to understand his feelings, he’ll see that you care about him and respect him.

If you can’t understand why he’s upset, just ask. He’ll likely try to explain himself so that you can understand him better.

Accept His Feelings

Even if you don’t understand why he’s upset, accept that he is upset. He’s not being dramatic and he’s not exaggerating the situation. His feelings are valid.

Take responsibility for the role you played in making him feel hurt or angry.

It doesn’t matter if you didn’t mean to upset him, you still did. Your intentions don’t make his feelings invalid.

Let him be angry. Let him be sad. Don’t try to rationalize away his feelings and don’t tell him he should just “get over it”.

He will likely get over it but let him do that at his own pace! Accepting his feelings will allow him to get over his hurt faster.

Will a Sagittarius man apologize to you if he is also in the wrong? He won’t always. If you want the argument to be over, you may just need to accept that as well.

Respect Him

You need to show a Sagittarius man that you respect him. You need to let him know that, even if you disagree, you respect his thoughts and opinions.

If he feels disrespected, no apology is going to be good enough. Make sure your apology is sincere and respectful. Don’t patronize him or give him a half-hearted apology.

Be extra respectful in the way that you speak to him following an argument. You’ll want to make up for any negative things you said about him before.

When a Sagittarius man feels respected, he feels cared for and loved. He needs a relationship based on mutual respect.

Be Sensitive

Be compassionate with your Sagittarius man following an argument. He might try to hide his emotions but he’ll be deeply hurt if you’ve insulted him or done something to betray his trust.

If he opens up to you about how he feels and why what you did upset him, you need to listen. Don’t get defensive. Don’t interrupt him. Don’t make it about yourself.

You’ll get a turn expressing how you feel as well. When it’s his turn, though, just give him the floor. Let him get everything off his chest.

Be extra sensitive to his feelings after you’ve apologized as well. Even if he’s forgiven you, he might still have some residual hurt feelings. You don’t want to hurt his feelings again.

Show You’re Sorry

Will a Sagittarius man always come back after an argument? Most of the time, he will. If you’ve done something truly terrible to him, you’ll need to work to show him how sorry you are, though.

You can show him you’re sorry by the way you treat him after an argument. Be extra sensitive to his needs. Help him out as much as possible.

You can show him you care with words of affirmation and compliments. This is especially helpful if he’s upset because you insulted him or said something else hurtful. He needs to hear kind words from you.

You can also give him a gift or treat him to a special date night. Try taking him out to a new restaurant or do something else to let him have a new experience with you.

Treat Him Well

When you ignore a Sagittarius man following an argument, that shows him that you don’t care about his feelings. Pay attention to him. Do what you can to make him feel better.

If he likes physical affection, be extra affectionate with him. Hug him, kiss him, and cuddle him as much as possible. Show him how much you love him.

Speak kindly to him. Even if you two normally joke and tease one another, you might need to lay off the teasing for a while. His emotions might be raw after you’ve hurt him. He might not be able to handle even some light teasing.

Shower him in attention. If you’re not sure of what you can do to make him feel better, just ask. Show him that you’re willing to help him out if he needs it.

Show You Appreciate Him

When a Sagittarius man is done with you, that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s forever. If you can show him that you appreciate him and that you are truly sorry for what you’ve done, he’ll forgive you.

Tell him that you are grateful for all the things he does for you. Show him that you notice the good things he does. If you were critical of him before, show him what you like about him.

When a Sagittarius man is sad, nothing makes him feel better than knowing he’s appreciated by the people he loves.

Appreciation will go a long way if you want to make him feel better after you’ve hurt him. Even if he was also in the wrong during an argument, you should still show him care and appreciation after you two make up.
