forgiveness

This is where I would get into some direct one on one communications with my friend. One has to make sure everything is crystal clear or misunderstandings can occur. Aren't all friends worth this step??

I have had a friend that did something that really angered me, but I thought, and considered, our friendship was more important than a little fight. I never told her how angry I became or how hurt I was. Our friendship survived and continues. Sometimes I think she never really understood that she had hurt me, she just didn't think it mattered.

True friends in this world are but few so if we found one, we have to treasure him. Now with regard to a friend that betrays our trust not just once but twice it is but normal that we lose our trust on that person. Should we forgive him then after he repeats or keep repeating the same mistake? The answer is Yes! God says we should forgive those who offended us seventy times seven times. This means our forgiving spirit should prevail in all circumstances. If we have a God who can forgive us for all our trespasses that we keep repeating, then who we are to deny forgiveness to others. Of course this does not mean you should not learn lesson from this bad experience. You can always forgive the person but learn to be more discerning of what kind of friends we add up to our list. Learn also to limit your activities with that person so that he can't have any more chances of offending you over and and over again.

a couple of years ago i had fallen out with my sister. then a year ago, when i found God, i thought that i should forgive her and put everything that had happened in the past. however, a few weeks later she completely betrayed me again. and now, christian or not, i cant forgive her. you cant let people walk all over you. some people will never learn from their mistakes and i think if youve forgiven your friend once and she still offended you, you should take a step back from your friendship and tell her that you cant be her friend any more. theres no need to argue about it or be angry. just let her go and live your own life.

She has really taken you for granted. Try to confront her about it. Speak out what's in your mind and tell her about everything that you feel. If your truly care for her, then do what's best for her. Confront her before she develops an abusive behavior

Friend is a friend who is very close to us. There is no better friend than a friend. Maybe there are some of us consider friends as our own brother or sister. With them, we feel comfortable. With them, we can help each other open and if there are problems that baffle us. We go through ups and downs with them. For those of us who have a very close friend, of course we do not want to separate from them. They become part of our lives. However, one day, a friend that we all believe it to be our enemy. Hate her? Is this what would you choose? If you choose to hate it then you are not different from your best friend. What will you get out of hate? Hatred will only bring destruction. When hatred has entered into you, then there will be an intention to harm him. Arise also the intention to destroy her life. And this process will continue to repeat. When you manage to destroy your sabahat life, then your friend will be loving you and intend to take revenge again. Remember. Hatred will never end if repaid with hatred. Therefore, the hate is not the best. Upon reflection, there may be three answers that could come out. "I forgive him", "I will not forgive him", "I still do not know what I should do best." If your answer is "I forgive her", then grab your phone. Send sms to your friends with the message "I have forgiven all that you did to me and I will always be your friend." Expect to send sms as this heart will open and reply to your SMS with the message "I know I was wrong. Excuse me". This is the best thing that could happen. If she does not reply your sms or even reply to your text messages with insults, give up of your freindship, but never hate her. If your answer is "I do not want to forgive her," it is your choice. You simply will always be in the circle of hate. Remember. At the moment you're hating your friends, you get angry like a mad man, maybe it is cool to your friends at home, laughing. She will not know what you do. If your answer is "I still do not know what I should do best," then you are a person who does not have a position. You can not decide what's best for yourself. Whatever you do it is your own decision. But remember one thing. Think positive.

I have never had a friend offend me twice. if they did , the friendship would be over. The last time a friend said something stupid , I said " You are better than this1" and he hasn't said it again. and it has been many months. But if your friend just didn't do it for a few days and then went back to doing it , then she Really wasn't going to stop. It is up to you to figure out if you can live with this or not. Whichever way do not feel bad, you gave her a second chance.

I think forgiveness should be given to anyone and their should be no grudge planted on our feelings but we must be cautious on the next time we deal with that person. The previous experience is already a warning and that may be used on our future dealings.

Some people just don't know any better, it is nothing against you or your friendship they just act in a stupid way. Be the better person and say no to their stupidity.

It sounds like you have a friend who takes your friendship for granted. It really depends on the nature of the mistake. If it is a character trait then you may have to accept your friend the way she is, but if it is an invasion of your personal space you may want to reevaluate if she really is a friend.

Hello, fenirose. I would lovingly teel your friend that it is time to respect your wishes. If they will not do that then you need to have another person see what is going on and they will help you correct that friend. If they still continue to do things that you do not like, then it is time to sit them down and tell them that maybe being their friend is not the best for either party. I have done that to others and regreted it later when they confronted me. It was difficult to lose a friend but I learned a lesson in respecting others feelings. It has happened to me as well but I simply remind them that I was not their personal punching bag. Hope that this helps. Have a great day. :)
