Have you left.. to learn or teach? / myLot

October 13, 2011 9:46am CST

Hi guys... I was just wondering, have you ever 'left/disowned' someone in order to teach them a lesson?.. In the heat of the moment all say and do things that we probably dont mean but at the end of the day we feel some guilt for what we said or done- but our intention behind it was in order to make sure that the individual was taught a lesson *that maybe we have tried to get through their head for ages*.. In cases like this, have you ever been able to forgive the situation *even if they havent changed*.. or have you been adamant that if they do change youll return?... Please Share..(",)

I used to left one. That is our big controversy. We can not stand togerther and I have left her. Now I think it is my wrong decision. I am still missing her and do not angry her anymore. I don't think it give her a lesson but I have a lesson. Think carefully before disowne someone. You decision will never give back.

Unfortunately, I say things that I regret to get my point across. I just move on. I can't dwell on the things I can not change. I find it a lot easier on me just to say what's on my mind and move on. If I don't, I end up getting really ticked off at the person and that's never any fun for me or that person. Best Wishes!

its tough to forgive if they hav not changed. Why and what will the result be if u or i forgive and thy do not even change or try to make a change of themselves. It would be a waste only to forgive such and such people.And who are we to forgive.Only because they done something wrong against us we try to say that we now forgive them,However why should we allow them to do the mistake against us.

I once got so angry with an office mate. She texted me to do something and the manner she said it was something i perceived as she's superior, when in fact we are just of the same footing. So i texted her that i was angry at what she just instructed me. And when we met in the office, she was trying to be apologetic and said she didn't mean it. But , i removed her hands holding unto my arms and left her. From then on, she was careful of how to deliver words. And i softened and we become friends again. I guess, i just taught her a lesson, never to undermine me.
