it's good to let go of any negative feelings, they only do harm
pedro27: i find some people hold grudges throughout there whole life over small things, they habour them without forgiving,
Just because a person holds a grudge does not mean they are a "black and white" thinker and there are a million different answers besides yes or no. Like, for example, when people do bad things to me, I can be friends with them again after a certain amount of time, but I never lose eight of the fact that they did something bad once. Some people do things that are so bad that there is not a ghost of a chance that they can ever be forgiven. And, nobody would forgive them either.

i said ''small things'' meaning minor not serious offences

For me to hold a grudge over another, I find that this just drags me down as a person
I deal with a problem normally face-to-face, directly and assertively and also listen to the other person's point of view
discuss and work out if possible (think it is best to try then not at all)...if not, move on and learn from the experience and use it as a valuable guideline in the future
rather live my life without carrying the overload of baggage from grudges with me
serena123: Yes, unfortunately, I hold grudges till the day I die, not for little things, but for people who have hurt or wronged me ..definitaly!
im glad to see im not the only one lol i dont let it eat me up though, but if someone seriously hurt or wronged me i wouldnt forgive and if i saw an opportunity for revenge ,even if it took 20 years , id take it .

It depends mostly on my emotional attachment to that person. If there is a close bond I forgive a lot but with others I just become indifferent or forget they exist. Fooled once shame on you. Fooled twice shame on me and that is where it stops. Revenge is not something I indulge in as it is too much work and can sometimes backfire.

Why waste my energy on someone who may have slighted me before? I just can't be bothered with that. I'll be annoyed for a bit, but won't carry it onto the next day.

Nah, I don't hold on to grudges for things done against me. Put on some music and within an hour or two I've forgotten all about it. But do something to hurt those I love and I will be their enemy for life.

Aw Tru just let me at them But hang on, "your only love..DIZ", now that just ain't true, Tru. You just want to use my soft heart against me, and I won't bite
What does that mean exactly? There are things that most people will never forget or forgive if they have been damaged enough, and I don't think that's wrong nor should be deemed as holding a grudge.
