How forgiving are you to your friends?
Do you forgive fast or does it take you awhile?
What if a friend were to start leaving you. Then suddenly they come back. The they keep doing it? Do you forgive them every time or do you just stop caring for them any more?

I know it is very good to be forgiving.However I'm a not such a forgiving person.I take long time to calm down when I'm angry.Even if I forgive someone I fail to forget the thing easily.I think it needs a very patient and calm person to keep forgiving people.It is definitely not easy!

I agree Sometimes i say I forgive people but it always sits in the back of my mind. In a way i wish it wouldnt but i cant help it.

I'm very forgiving friend it depends on what she done bad for me. If its not quite that bad and she/he apologize me and give me some reasons to understand why she do it I think I can forgive her. But there is one situation I can't forget about my long lost friend that the time she commited a mistake with me she never attempt or even talk to me about what happened why did she did that to me. It's like missing in action, I already forgive her and also forget what happened to us.

I am very forgiving actually. Most people would call me a pushover or naive, but I don't see myself that way. Friends come in and out of your life. If you smother someone and expect them to stay by your side 24/7, they'll walk away. I am someone that enjoys having my space and I respect that from time to time friends are going to go away for a while to do their own thing. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in our friends that we tend to lose a little bit of ourselves. The only way to do that is to take a break from each other. When you've found your own identity, then you can come back like nothing ever happened. Besides, friends are supposed to be forgiving. If you care, then forgive them, just don't let their coming and going hurt you. All you can do is just be there for them when they need you and not be too proud to go to them when they need you.
