Answer:well this is required for ur knowledge and ur experience but i could give u an example if u want

last week i had lied to my step mother about something that was small, she found out emediatly that i was lying and got mad. she asked me why do i lie to her so much and i couldnt answer cuz i didnt know. i lied to her many times before and did some other stuff to her such as stealing and lying about important stuff. yesterday when she finally wasnt mad at me we talked long and hard and she told me that each time i lied or stole from her it broke alittle bit of her trust in me, she asked me if it was cuz i just didnt like her and i told her no and that i saw her as a family memember but she told me she didnt believe me and that she cant believe a thing i say due to how much i lied to her. there was a lot of tears after that long talk and after i calmed down i did some stuff and then started thinking of reasons why i did the things i did. then i started thinking of how i could of fixed it. a way i could of fixed the issue before it was even an issue was i could of not lied nor stole from her, i could of told her how i felt instead of holding my emotions in. id love to fix what i lost but its not possible. a way i could fix the issue i have rn is try not to lie and try to convince her to trust me. something i want to take back during our talk? not saying anything at all.

now im not saying any of that was true but its a good example of what to say during this essay you could use ur own words and ur own problem to explain how you could fix,repair and all that other stuff. just use ur own story for the essay. in ur own words and story try to answer all the questions asked.

If you had to relive that situation all over again, how would you fix the fight or keep it from turning into one?

Think about the following questions and then write several paragraphs in response: When did the fight occur, and what was it about?

What do you wish you would have said during that fight?

Did the fight result in your not being friends or not getting along with that person anymore?

Would you want repair your relationship with this person again?

If so, what are some possible ways to fix the damage?
