It’s largely contextual, but using the example you gave, true repentance would involve going to Confession, contrition for that wrongdoing, intent to turn away from sin, and making things right w the person you harmed. If you have the opportunity to make things right & you don’t, is that repentance?

The Catholic Church teaches that true repentance involves making amends with the person you’ve harmed where possible, as well as asking for forgiveness from God through Confession with a priest.

tl;dr: Dear Christians, is your spiritual act of repentance intrinsically connected to the material action of making up for past misdeeds?

say you yelled at someone repeatedly, and you realise later that you never should have done so. would part of repentance - like, the spiritual practice of repentance - involve speaking to the one you yelled at, to apologise and see if you can help make things better?

okay, so question to Christians: I understand that Christian repentance is mostly about seeking forgiveness from God, but are you also aiming to account for your impact on other people directly? Or is that not really a focus?

If you recognize your need for repentance, then repent!
The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.
Go to your prayer closet, turn your heart and capture your thoughts to the obedience of Christ, and ask Him, invite Him, and wait.
God is doing many mighty works today, and He is merciful, but don't rebel.

If you read my words and feel horrible, it is not because my words are horrible, but because they describe you.
If you feel suicidal, maybe it is because you have been destroying the faith of God's little children, and maybe you ought to take a long walk off a short pier with a millstone necklace.

Busyness and haste are bedfellows with sinful complacency which displaces the will to rest.
Most people I see today are enraptured by being busy, they are making hasty decisions one right after another, and they are bound within sinful complacency which grasps them and prevents the idea of freedom.

Sermon: “Do Not Believe Them”
(Matthew 24:23; Hosea 8:4; John 18:36)
Jesus warned, “If anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Anointed One!’ do not believe them.” Yet today, many conservative evangelical false prophets declare political figures “God’s anointed” or “the savior of America.”

Julio Arboleda’s fate in #Catholicism is more relevant today than ever, given that two self-proclaimed “Catholics” are destined to have to get up at midnight on Good Fridays for eternity vainly seeking repentance for their sins as they haunt the Supreme Court grounds.

I recently read a dissent in an emergency US Supreme Court case about human trafficking held at midnight on Good Friday in which the dissenters (Alito and Thomas) put pen to paper to complain about having to wake up to hear the case.

This rhetoric is getting more and more dangerous b/c like what does the metaphor even mean.
What was I thinking. I mean this isn't prayer hall crew of patience, understanding, forgiveness, repentance.
Its emotional volatility on the edge. One negative assumption and boom 💥

and because even slight complicity will be an unbearable moral taint, because the complicit will not be able to bear it, they will reject it.
