This is a Harvard Business School study.
An experimenter conducted an experiment in which a cell phone was borrowed from a person who first met in the town.

How to make practical use of this in your life
So what should we do when it's not raining?
Actually, it doesn't have to rain.
In addition to apologizing for the rain, this effect can be achieved by “I'm sorry for the late train” or “I'm sorry for the consumption tax”.
Anyway, the point is to apologize for what human power can't do.
According to researchers, apology is a simple tool that affects communication, and it is important to apologize anyway, even if you are not negligent.
