Oh I do react and also forgive them we are not perfect none of us so I am always willing to forgive someone when they have done wrong by me and also I apologise to anyone that I offend as well,. But if it is something major then it takes me longer to forgive but I do forgive in the end as this is part of my religion teachings, we must forgive but we can't forget so easily as that remains in our conscience.

I must say that every relationship has some sort of forgivness on both parts. Obvious I know but some people for get we arnt perfect and that sometimes u just have to think life is short enjoy it whilst u can. So for that reason I would say that I do forgive and that I am probably a better person for doing it. Dont get me wrong I am not a door mat I wont let someone walk all over me and just forgive them but I will accept everyone has there faults and work around it.

I would love to say I forgive everything as that is what I would like to do, but unfortuantely I don't. I do try hard as I know people can't always help it, but sometimes it is too hard to forgive if they keep doing the same annoying things.

I do speak up about things that are important to me. I will say something if I feel people constantly show me no respect. But there are lots of times when i think is is best to just ignore small things that happen. I think everyone need to do this. If not people would get into constant fights and discussions, I think.
