Depending on how long uve ben in recovery....you wouldnt want to rush right over off the bat and make amends...they need time to see how serious one is with their own recovery....there have been to many times we've promised this and that and never followed thru with it...then they begin to not trust us...so in time .....the amends can happen.....remember too there have been times we did say were sorry and turn right around and make the same mistake...today in rocovery we learn not to make the same mistakes again so we dont have to turn around and make those amends again...but....we learn the right ways to make our amends....and we do it quickly and honestly.
