The Apology Language Quiz is a Relationship Game-Changer

Asasia Richardson for Her Campus

Before we break down the meaning of the five different apology languages, let’s back up and talk about what an apology language even is.

The definition of an apology language is “a set of broad categories in which an apology might fall,” Asasia Richardson, an LMSW therapist at A Good Place Therapy, tells Her Campus. “Different people have different styles and approaches to how they tend to express that they are sorry, and apology languages help sort these styles and offer insight to what types of apologies people prefer.”

Some people find simple statements of regret to be shallow, while others might prefer to move past the situation more quickly. If you’ve ever felt like an apology from a loved one was hollow or not as meaningful as you hoped, it may have been because you desired a different response that could empower you to move on from the hurt they caused.
