Would you be able to detect fake remorse?

[Anonymous]

I've already done this a couple times in my life without really feeling anything in those words. The first time I faked remorse (gave a false apology too) to avoid a school suspension I was 10 years old. I still got suspended but instead of 5 days, I was given 2 days.

Here is the deal:

I can perfectly delivered a heartfelt apology without ''if, buts'' nor other excuses. I can show remorse and even work on the tears too. However, they're all empty words likely from years of mimicking. I'm not interested in doing anything that would get me in trouble obviously. I just don't feel remorse.

Would you be able to detect someone faking remorse? How good at you at that?

As a kid, obviously I had less self-control (hence why I got suspended once) but it's different as an adult.

Sociopath? Interesting

Don't take offense your opposite a psychopath has no sense of remore and Suffers a break from reality. Whereas you at least have a moral compass and in theory all your faulculties intact

But wouldn't sociopaths be made? I never got abused nor hit at home, never got bullied and overall had a good upbringing. There is no reason to feel no remorse.

I lose trust when I sense it I never pursue why someone is faking it. I just quit respecting them and if they make conflict I am quick to give them the cobra response. Knowing very well they are quick to retreat if met by a wall.

I can't feel remorse, never did.

A way to describe it is this:
Lets say I were to slash someone's tires, they don't know who did it and it caused the person to be late at work. I don't feel happiness over.. nope, but neither do I feel sadness nor remorseful over it. It's just apathy and indifference I guess.
