How Forgiving are You ?

Jump to newest

Always considered myself as a fairly _aid back guy, water off a ducks back and all that. Recently I was told I hold onto grudges for wrongs that have happened to me, not a nice trait. How forgiving are you ? Do you live and let live, allow people the right to be wrong. Or is it a case of an eye for an eye.

I find it very easy to cut people out of my life if they have done me wrong. Certain people are dead to me. And no fucker comes back from the dead.

You should forgive everyone who has ever hurt you, for your own sake. Some sorts of betrayals are easier to forgive. When the hurt and anger are really intense, it might not be possible, but ideally you let go of the hurt and anger as time passes .

Whether you should accept them back into your life is a different question. In a way, you have to bet your life on the person who betrayed you and hurt you sometimes over and over again and risk being hurt again . So, generally, not a wise move. It's unfortunate but you will more then Likely have your forgiveness thrown back in your face so it's best to forgive and move on .

They would actually have to want to right the wrong for that bw responsible for their own actions and actively work to make amends , a lot of people can't or won't do that .

This whole business of "forgive and forget" is B.S. If you get screwed over (on something non sexual), guess what???

You'll get screwed over again and again until you get smart ...

"Forgive but don't forget" is a better rule of law...

If it's bad I do struggle to forgive but as I get older that's alot of energy wasted. We all screw up and rarely do people intentialy want to hurt you and if someone does hurt you on purpose it's there's to deal with. They have to live with it you have the control you can let it go... sorry a long answer

Sometimes you get screwed over on the sexual stuff too . You are right you do need to get smart but holding a grudge is not healthy and forgiveness isn't for them it's for you and your own well being .

OP didn't say what it was about . But the point I was trying to make is if you wait for someone to make amnends to be able to forgive them you may be waiting a long time best thing is to forgive , let it go and move on .

Screwed over in love and lust and have the battle scars to prove it! It's just that I think "forgive and forget" is pure new age dogma, up there with "just accept things as they are" and "think only positive thoughts"

I agree, forgiving is healthy as done properly allows you to take the emotional bag off your shoulders and lay it on the ground...

Forgetting is foolish though as anyone who doesn't learn from past mistakes are doomed to repeat those exact same mistakes. If a (Fab or real) snake bites you once, guess what will likely happen the 2nd, 3rd or 4th time???

I know the above might be construed as bitter, but am actually a very happy go lucky person

Great forum Op "

So forgive and don't forget .

As for making the same mistake , people can be foolish they will believe any lie they are told because they want it to be true . As a result it might take a few times for the lesson to sink in .

You can also be unlucky enough to come across someone who is just very good at lying and being deceptive .

In those cases you can't blame your self just except what happened and mark it off as a lesson learned. You have to learn to forgive yourself too .
