Can you give more details?

Try to find forgiveness so the anger and revenge doesnt eat you up inside.

I know it sounds dumb but it works and its not as easy as it sounds to do.

I agree with Richard.My biggest problem is remembering to forgive but don't forget for then history just repeats itself and ohh getting betrayed twice and again by the same person Really hurts

Amen just been going through that here and finally had enough. At least this time I could stand up to his tears and I love you I'll change just give me another chance and held my own. I always try and forgive but when it's happened and they have multiple chances then no it has to end somewhere.

I believe what you say is true and not dumb, but I am just not a forgiving man. I once said that to the patriach of our family whose response was "Of course yo're not, you're Irish". I wonder about this often, especially in church when we say "forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us"

I also wonder if not being a forgiving person is an evolutionary survival trait. Just like if you punch me, my instinct is to not just protect myself but to punch you back. What do you think?

I found it a way to get rid of the eye for and eye thinking,revenge and anger. I didnt like how that made me feel inside.

It's just a way for me not to bring myself to the same level as the person who has hurt me. It was a friend of mine Andra who taught me that.

What Susan52 said,"remembering to forgive but don't forget" I feel is so true. Forgiving someone doesnt mean you approve or except their actions.

I think todays world its more like, "if you punch me, I'll shoot you." What really makes it fun is Forgiving and feeling sorry for that person..lol

I have been betrayed in many ways

Sometimes it is so bad trusting again can almost be impossible
