Could You Forgive Someone Who Has Constantly Hurt You?

Yes, I would because our world is full of temptation and humans are prone to sins. Everyone would do such thing all over and over again.I myself has one that a particular bad deed for several of times. Anyway, If the Lord could forgive us a million of times, why can't we?

I haven't really experienced that before but thinking about it maybe just maybe because of the love you have for that person that no matter how many times that person caused you pain, you still forgive that person. Simply because you don't want that person out of your life but if you do then you would've driven that person away.

hi bettymarie my dear dad molested me once at age 8 and I never let myself be alone in our home with the lecher from then on. I was filled with hate towards my dad and my dear hubby told me the hate was not bothering my dad but was making me feel ill. so I did for g ive him and also asked why which he refused to answer. I had to respect him for being my dad but I did not owe him like or love either.Just respect but I got rid of the hate and it felt like a ton of weight had been lifted off my shoulders.

Although he's never once asked for my forgiveness I wish I could forgive my Father for my own peace of mind simply because I know that the anger I feel towards him hurts me more then it ever could him. The fact that he never once tried to apologize proves that. My father was physically abusive to my sisters & I but he never believed he did anything wrong. The three times he tried to contact me was when I was much older. It was after I got married & somehow word got back to him that my husband got a promotion. Of course he called to try & hit us up for money, so I never even bothered to answer the phone. Some people I believe just don't deserve to be forgiven.

Yeah it can be very difficult to forgive people when they continously do things that hurt us. I try hard to forgive. But sometimes I just feel that a person should try themselves not to hurt others. For example people need to learn to hold their tongue. And often times when they don't it causes hurt feelings.

It's so difficult to forgive the person specially your someone hurt you or cheated you, i have experience before that my someone cheated me. When i find out he cheated me i talk to him and ask why? He have a lot of reasons, he ask an apologize to me and i accept it and forgive him. But the second and the third times he still do it, i have no chance just to let him go...But there is a lot of situations how to forgive, well we are not perfect in this world even God could forgive us, i can forgive him but i can't accept him anymore!

Hi Betty... It depends upon who's hurt and how deep the effect was! I'm of forgiving attitude most of the times. I don't mind small things, small irritating remarks... Or even small mistakes... There have been a few instances and grieving instances, which I can never forget... There're very few people, whom I can't forgive...

Even though someone was hurting me all of the time either physically or emotionally I would probably still have it in my heaert to forgivr them. Forgiveness after all is a huge part of the healing process. i don't think forgetting what happened would come as easily. It would certainly have to change the way i felt about that person and the relationship we would have now.
