No matter how tough we have been through and how people hurt us, the only way to free ourselves is to forgive. But it isn't that easy to do, especially if the person who hurt you is not even asking for forgiveness. Until now, I'm still holding grudges to the father of my child and to the woman who stole him.

In my deep heart, I won't forgive someone who hurt me. For example, my ex.

Hello Tinetine I´m glad to read you! My father is the one who has must hurted me. I think he is very unmature, I forgave him, but I don´t want him to hurt me anymore, so I take my distance with him, I set healthy limits. If a child puts his finger on fire, he burns and he won´t let fire burn him anymore. Blessings Tinetine... dainy

When I love someone, I always give my all. That is why when I get hurt, I get hurt real bad. I always have room for forgiveness, but it takes time to build the trust again.

The same applies for me also. Sometime I wonder if I am doing it right loving someone other than me. It really gets complex sometime.

Oh,Love! It is truly complicated. Just look at the positive things in life and be busy with more important things. The right time to completely forgive and forget will come.

To forgive and forget is a divine action that entails a lot of courage for human as we are we tend to be close to be someone who hurt us. But our life will be trapped to unhappiness if cant forget the times when we are hurt and we failed to move on in this aspect. To forgive is maturity and finding inner peace .

you can even forgive the person broke your heart if you forget but if you remember all bad memories how can you Truly forgive.If you love your friend it will become easy to forgive so,I think love is necessary and forgetting is more necessary and bearing attitude like jesus is most necessary to forgive a person who broke your heart.

Forgiveness is not easy when you bruised deeply.. Its easy to say when you're not in the position but once you're the subject it really weighs in your part. I understand when there are people who will not forgive easy. we're not perfect.

I don't think so and I never did. I'm very protective, loyal and help those around me anyway I can but if there's something unloyal or I feel humiliated by someone that I trusted enough to let come closer and they betray this trust my feelings just freeze, I can turn to absolutely feel nothing towards a person or a little hurt so definitely that's not forgiving.

When I love a person, I always give my all. And it makes it hard for me to get over the pain if things doesn't go on smoothly between us. But one thing I have realized, that even though how much I have been hurt, and I might be proud to take his forgiveness, the love remains in my heart. I can forgive. But I would just want sometime to be alone and re-think things.

you can alway forgive someone but some things take longer than others to do so. I mean it is possible to forgive someone right away but it take longer to forgive the action that they did. I will definatey say that it is possible to forgive somone who makes you cry and hurts you. I have done this personally and pretty recently. my husband an i have been going thero rough patches for years now but we have forgave and decided to move on with our lives forver. i know there are many diffrent circumstances of ir you can or can not forgive someone so sometimes I think it depends soley on the situation.

I can definitely forgive somebody who broke my heart but I will never forget what he did to me. As the matter of fact, we are noe friends talk over the phone once in a while(he is the one calling).

yes, i can definitely forgive someone, however, forgiveness is not a one day process. it will take time. when the wounds are already healed and the scars are all gone. on the other hand, if you will based forgiveness spiritually, our god in heaven forgives us even before we asked for forgiveness, so who are we not to forgive someone who hurt us?

Yes it is possible to forgive that person you really have to learn to deal with whatever happenened. I will say that forgiving someone for doing something that hurt you for any reason is VERY DIFFICULT, it is not easy at all. When it comes to what others say, you just plain ignore that person because, a lot of the things that others bring against you to hurt you is a lot of time FOOLISHNESS!!! It also shows that you don't care what that person or others have said.
