Saying that you are sorry does not alter the fact that you have done something you should not have/should have done differently - even if this be only in your personal estimation of the ideal behaviour. It is considered polite social behaviour to be excusing yourself and asking other people to pardon you for your personal minor and bigger failings, misdeeds, misunderstandings, faults, absences and also for a number of other things.
However, no one other but yourself can forgive you. And if others may seemingly do it in your place it might relieve your bad conscious for an instance but the next moment finds your back in your sense of personal guilt. In short: the only way to true forgiveness is by forgiving yourself for the way you are in every moment of time. Thereby you are becoming immune to the opinions of others, who are still living in guilt and thus are projecting their inner dissatisfaction on you in the attempt to relieve their own sense of guilt. And, of course, you naturally cease to see others as guilty of anything.
