If so, you should apologize to your girlfriend promptly and express your sincerity and willingness to correct your mistakes.
3. Give the other party some time
After an argument, both parties need some time to calm down and think. Don't rush to communicate with your girlfriend, give the other person some time and space to calm down. This time can be used to reflect on your own problems, and it also gives your girlfriend a chance to think and organize her thoughts.
4. Take the initiative to find an opportunity
