Forgive - Yes
Forget - Now that would be foolish.
Forget - Now that would be foolish.
Forgive - Maybe...depends on the event.
Forget - Never..
Forget - Never..
54xmax: Well said - - - - To reflect on your previous post . . . Why hold a grudge, and let it rule your life . . . . You can forgive . . . . or even if you don't forgive, you can be neutral. Even if you don't forget, you can remember the lesson you learned, with out letting the whole "situation / issue" - - - literally ruin your life - - if you let it . . .
In the end, it really all depends on the situation / issue - - - -

For each person its different I guess ... But from experience there isn't anything I need to grudge anyone for .. And forgetting doesn't mean pretending it didn't happen ... But to forget those ill feelings you get every time you think of it .. I spent some time HATING my ex husband .. And it got me no where .. He was an awful guy/father with the best of luck .. And I watched him find a young girl and move on with his life had a kid with and forgot my daughter all together .... And I sat back on day and asked myself why should I spend my days thinking of my awful years with him .. Its time I cleanse myself of all those feeling ... And the only way I could do that was to forgive him .. I never called to let him know but I did it from within .. And boy was that a big burden off my shoulders .. I never felt that good in years ... And I was able to fill that big space with more love for my daughter and my love ones ... And I felt healthy from the inside ..
Well I am glad I did that .. And its the way I have been living my life since then ... I swear I feel love and loved (not only from people but everything in life itself) coz love peace and happiness (and lots of fun) is where I direct my energy ..
Witchaywoman: Some things can never be forgiven.
I agree with this. It also depends on who the person is and what they have done to you.

true- there are degrees of things and circumstances are unique - each situation judged on its own merits (or lack of
)

Good for you In the end it comes down to this kind of forgiveness, you gave to your ex - - - I am proud of you - - -
I see no reason not to forgive and forget.I've heard life moves on.

Why thank you
Yeah I forgive for selfish reasons, so I won't have to carry around negative baggage with me as I progress through life. As far as forgetting goes, nah, I believe forgetting is for the foolish who are doomed to repeat the same mistakes. We always remember, lest it happen again!
Depends on the person, but generally yes

And that is very sad indeed.
yes I understand. Knowing you as a nice & levelheaded person (not a pot stirer) your post alarmed me. Then I read mysticalli's and I share your concern
