If a friend breaks your trust, do you forgive them because they are our friend or do you just denounce them because they have broken your trust?

I am able to forgive but alot of my friends have not been able to do the same. I'm way to honest and I will tell you what I think. I have broken ties with a freind we didnt agree about something and she started attacking me. So I cut her off. I have forgiven her but we no longer speak. Forgiveness is more about you than it is the other person. When you forgive you let go off all the bad stuff and any attachment to the bad stuff. The bad stuff can eat you up inside! Good luck!

everyone deserves a second chance. but then again, that depends on what kind of offense was done to you. if the gravity of the situation is really severe, i think forgiveness is something that will come at a later point. remember it is more painful to be stabbed by a friend than an enemy.

I honestly dont mean to sound judgemental or smug. I dont judge my friends, my current situation he has made fun of something I am very sensitive about, my disability. It was meant in a jest but came out quite cruel.
I am not capricious and I swear total loyalty to my friends, but yeah, being betrayed by a friend is one of the most hurtful things.

If a friend breaks my trust then i would be very hurt and angry initially. i probably wont talk to them for a few days or shout at them when i talk to them. But then id begin to think why they did this in the first place. I would then talk it out and see if things can be resolved. coz friends are very hard to come by and I would not want to lose any.

I Will tell my friend that he or she have broken my trust and it is very bad for our friendship. I would give him or her a second time opportunity. If he broke again, perhaps I will denounce him or her. After all, I have give him a chance.
A friend that always brake trust isn't a real friend. I must kick him out of my friends list.
