It took me a short time to forgive someone that hurt me, but a very long time to forgive myself for having let them...

It's never easy to forgive someone who had hurt you especially when everytime you remember what they've done, the pain and anger is still there. I guess nobody can really say how long it would take because it all depends on the situation. It takes letting go of the past and accepting what they have done to be able to forgive. But what matters most is that when you do decide to forgive someone, it should come from the heart. In my experience, it might have taken me quite some time to forgive that someone, but when I did, it gave me a sense of freedom and peace. I hope you find that kind of peace someday too. :)

i guess it would depend as to the reason why i was hurt. I do not know and have no idea how much this person has hurt you. I could say that i have been hurt, it felt as though i was stabbed, i could not breathe, i could not think clearly and i was shattered. all things i have envisioned shattered right before me - that kind of pain was brought upon me. but slowly i have managed to try to forget. God helped me. I offered him the pain, the suffering so he could take it away from me and i suffered less and less each day...

Hi, its not easy to forgive someone but if we don't forgive we will never forget that pain and it will hurt us forever . So just keep your busy and everything will be alright with time

Forgiving is not easy depending how much that person hurts you. I understand your feelings. But,you need to go on, and forgiving is one way to moved on and have some peace of mind.

Being hurt always gives as a thought for vengeance but it will do us no good but in forgiving, we are giving ourselves a great favor.
