You say that forgiving is unconditional, but would’t it help if the one forgiving hears a sincere apology from the one who offended?

Yes, a sincere apology tends to help most people to offer forgiveness, but such an apology is not a requirement that is absolutely necessary for the offended person to forgive.  If it were a requirement for the forgiver, this is giving too much power to the offending person over the other person’s healing from the injustice.
