Forgive and forget, thats what they say, but its easier said than done. How can you forgive someone who has betrayed your trust?

Forgiveness can only come from within. Only you can decide to forgive someone how has wronged you. It is an easy thing to do really, just choose to do so and work on it. That being said I agree with QueenKaren's response, never ever forget. First of all you can't forget, second of all forgetting means you are open to this kind of betrayal again.
The forgiving is the easy part, its trusting the person again, the person who betrayed you has to earn it back. I am a big believer in the trust is something earned not something to be expected.

I agree with you. Its really hard forgiving someone specially the people who've hurt you are the ones closest to your heart. But i guess for us to learn how to forgive is learning to let go and accept things. People make mistakes and The best way to learn how to forgive is to pray for God's guidance.

forgiving is hard especially when the wound caused by a person is deep and painful. its usually the time that helps us forgive.
