Hi Banya,
Just to give you some feedback.
---------------------------------------
What does it mean exactly?
Does it mean "I am sorry that's my fault"?
This means "I am sorry that I told the plain truth". A person is sorry that they had to tell the honest truth, which we normally do not do. We feel it's too impolite or rude to tell the plain truth and hurt other people's feelings.
2. My bubble has been burst.
Does it mean "All my hope have gone like bubble"?
Yes, that's basically what it means. My hopes have all gone. It really should be "All my hopes have burst like bubbles" or "All my hope has burst like a bubble".

It seems you have a pretty good understanding of what's going on. KEEP LEARNING!!!

1. They are apologizing for saying something without worrying about how it may affect someone.
2. Not exactly. Sometimes people live their life in a "bubble," which means that they only know things a certain—the way they have always known it. When "their bubble is burst," it means that they finally realized that things aren't like they always thought.
