Conflict-averse people will always maintain an unhealthy peace in preference to healthy conflict. Minimising sexual harassment and caring about things with no consequences is the unhealthy peace. You can't accuse him of being apathetic, because look, the cheating is bad, but he won't get involved with anything that might require him to act.

I think in this situation, the word 'sorry' doesn't mean very much. It's an empty gesture with no practical meaning. You can say 'sorry' when you do something to someone by accident. But when you make a conscious decision, the word 'sorry' is definitely too weak and doesn't reflect the reality of it.
