I didn’t say sorry

I know that sounds ridiculous, but I’m always apologizing. I was texting with a friend and they thanked me for getting them to info the needed. I read the text a couple hours later. I started to apologize for the delayed, “you’re welcome”. I started to type “I’m sorry for the delayed response”. Why am I sorry? I deleted it and just said “you’re welcome. Have a great afternoon “

Doesn’t sound like much, but I’ve never deleted an apology that wasn’t necessary. People pleasing needs to stop. Bit by bit, family or friend, I’m going to do my best to stop apologizing unless it truly is something that requires one. If I can do it there, I can do it anywhere, right? And I’m not apologizing for the length of this message either.
