Do you think it's possible to forgive and forget what the person did to you?

To forgive is divine, but to forget is something which could be hard to do. Often we can forgive someone for what they had done to us, but the stigma remains and not easily forgotten. Years down the road, it could be brought up again when both parties meet somewhere. Is it possible to forget? Yes, it is. You need a strong mind, determination, understanding and compassion.

I can personally forgive a person if he has been wrong with me but I cannot forget very easily, It is not a matter of keeping a revenge but I simply cannot forget because there will be always situations which will crop up and then remind me of the event. So I will take time to forget though.

hello careguarden, well, that depends on the situation. but it possible to forgive and eventually you will forget as days pass by. need to go on and start a new. this way, life is easier for you don't have any guilt within you. we are just humans and we can commit mistakes. if THE CREATOR can forgive then we can do the same.

I think it depends on the situation. There are things that have happened to me that I was able to forgive and forget, then there are things that I forgave someone for, but I definately will never forget. It's hard to say which is true.

Hi care... it is possible... but is sure hard to do... I dont wanna be a hypocrite to say i can easily do that... it takes time to totally get over the hurts one have caused you....

In my opinion,you can forgive without forgetting. when someone hurts you,it's awful.you will have a terrible memory. As the years slipped by,you will think less about it. But it will be so difficult to forget what the person did to you. So just face it and forgive it.

Yeah, I think it's possible, but really very hard. In my country, people seldom give thanks. It is easy for them to forget what others help them. It's so awful! But if others hurt them, it's easy for them to remember it but hard forgive it. And there is an old saying here "It never be late in ten years for a man of honor to take his revenge." I think it's common, but we should learn how to forgive and forget. Otherwise, we cannot get the real happiness! If we can forget something, it is far from forgiving. But frankly speaking, it's almost impossible to forget something painful completely. So forgive others is important! In my opinion, forgive those make us bitter and don't forgive those make us happy. Let our lives simple and happy!

Hi friend!This is such a good question.For me,i prefer to forget because forgiveness will also come along when you forget the person and the things that person did to you.If you will forgive that person will be by your side or you will see that person often coz they know you already forgave them.It's just like rubbing your wound with salt and it will really hurt you!So better to forgetthan to forgive!

I dont know. I ask the same thing to myself actually. All of them makes sense and sometimes they dont make any sense at all. But I guess that the answer to this question depends only on the situation, on what actually happened. All situations are different so its difficult to determine which one is right or not.

I don't hink you can forget something someone did to you especially if it is negative but forgiveness is possible. I believe once you forgive someone then you put things behind you but you still remember what happened that is until you become old and senile by then you just forget everything.

It is possible to forgive and forget but the scars will still remains. It is depending the deepness of the wound that he gave, that I could forgive and forget. In my life, I could not forgive and forget with only one person and that is my ex. Who make me undergo depression and hurts me more and more and hurts me even we have broke up. He is the person that I will not forgive and forget, for he gave me that biggest scar in my Heart. Even though I'm over him and moving on, still the scars remains and it give a pinch of pain to me.

In my opinion,you can forgive without forgetting. when someone hurts you,it's awful.you will have a terrible memory. As the years slipped by,you will think less about it. But it will be so difficult to forget what the person did to you. So just face it and forgive it.
