Describe an instance when you received an apology.: IELTS Speaking Cue Card

My mother apologized to me when I was small and that was because I did not get enough attention from any of my family members and I did not expect that apology and I did not want that apology because I wanted the situation to stay just as it was and it was a little annoying when she did that. I was like, she said why, she said the reason to all my relatives and which gave me more extra attention which I did not really needed. I felt a little uncomfortable after that. I couldn't share anything to her after that. I had some trust issues and the same thing happened with my sister. It was an apology, has to be sincere from the heart and just because they apologized to me, it was and then they gave me more attention and more care which was, I felt it was fake that it did not come from the bottom of their heart and it was not very necessary. I just wanted the same attention my sister had. From small, my relatives used to hate me for some reason. I still don't know why and I hope they understand me more better and not show that fake love.

Day before yesterday, my sister apologized to me for lashing out on me for using one of her makeup products. She apologized because she thought that it was a stupid thing to just lash out on your sister just for using one makeup product and yes, even I thought that finally that now she has realized it. I am glad about it and I am very grateful to her that she came to me and said sorry, which she rarely does. Only this time, she realized that it was a stupid thing to lash out randomly on me just for using one makeup product, which is just a temporary thing and it's an object and you can't hurt some people's feelings just because they touched one of your things, even though that thing was very expensive and to be honest, I was not ready to accept her apology because it was quite rude to just scold someone because they have just used their liner for about a minute or so, but whatever, that bitch.

I would like to share an incident during my postgraduate studies. It was the time when we had just started our research. It was a six-month long research. So everyone was busy collecting equipments and raw materials to start their research work. So was I. So in order to get some tanks for culturing algae, I had to gain entry to a lab which was closed and one of my co-guide was having that key. So I went to her and I got that key. I took my equipments and I returned to her. But at that time when I was returning it, she was very busy with interacting with someone. So I think that she must have not, she must have not, later she forgot about that incident and she was blaming me for not getting the key. I felt so bad because I still remember how I had returned to her but she was not able to recollect it and she was continuously blaming me. And I also even searched and she asked her students to search everywhere in the laboratory. So they searched and searched and they didn't get it. And at last when she called one of her students, one PhD student, he was having it with him. Actually he only took it from her drawer to get something from the lab. And when she came to know about it, she felt bad and she called me into her cabin and apologized for blaming me for something which I haven't done. So this was a good lesson for me because even before I was a little careful about us because she was not very fond of me and this incident was terrible one. So after that I always

I received an apology from my friend. The reason is he left me for an interview. So I was really depressed because the chances of getting an interview is really difficult. And it was for an interview wherein he left me and he participated in the interview alone. I really felt bad about it and it was really difficult for me to cope up with next interviews.

One day, one of my friend had apologized me for doing a kind of thing which I really got hurt and first of all I was just like, I was not feeling well at that time and I really don't expect her to apologize me after so long and I was in a kind of state at that time and I really accepted that because it's a kind of thing or it's a kind of action that we need to be done while somebody got hurt because of what we have done. In that case, she has done a nice thing, she has done a thing that's done by all others in the society and during that time I got peace, like literally at that day I really got insulted because of her but when she apologized to me, I feel happy and I feel like in a peace of mind. So, I am just okay with that.

and incident this was an incident which happened to me a few months back so it was it was time of a festival that is Diwali which is usually celebrated in South India and North India as well yeah so we had a plan as family to go to a vacation we planned like for a trip for almost a week or so it's been a while since we really had any vacation so I was pretty excited about it and I remember my dad canceling the plan because he had some prayer commitment he had so we couldn't really get to the vacation so I remember my parents apologizing to me and I remember crying over because we couldn't go to any vacations and we really had a tough time back then it was a very important commitment which he had so we couldn't go to the vacation it really had a very it was very really just I felt really bad about it but there was nothing I could do regarding the same so I just accepted that we will go sometime later on anytime so yeah so it was really sad but yes they definitely promised me a vacation the next tour like a vacation for the next festival season so yeah I'm pretty excited about it

So, this happened recently while I was at work, I'm a doctor and I was seeing patients the other day, I happened to realize that while we examine patients we need to investigate them, so there are a bunch of scans that we would require and I happened to notice that a lot of my patients were waiting for a really long time, so I wanted to find out why that was so, so I went to the investigation room and I found out that the patient was waiting

Apologize. When we do something wrong or our action does something wrong, when I say apologize to someone. And why it is important. Because it is so much importance when I do something wrong and when our actions to someone, when our actions to someone getting hurt and her emotions disrespectful, that time we should apologize. And why I feel about it. I feel about it is good when we say apology to someone because it is better to a rule.
