How can I forgive & forget?  | | Some years ago, during a tough period in my marriage, my wife threw her wedding ring down the toilet and flushed it away. She immediately regretted it and I pulled up the drains looking for it but never found it. I bought her a new one but its always bothered me. To me that new ring is just a ring, the marriage ring, the one that was blessed in church has been flushed down the toilet. It was so nearly the case that the whole marriage followed it but we pulled through. I certainly didn't conduct myself well that night but I felt so betrayed, especially as I had done nothing in my eyes deserving of such a gesture. We are happily married still but this thing stays on my mind and is a raw nerve. I do not wear my wedding ring any more and I dont think I ever look at hers. I say I forgive, but inside I think I must not really forgive because I still am holding on to this and resenting it, feeling betrayed and hurt and refusing to get over it. I know it isn't really possible to forget but how can I truely forgive and what does it mean that the memory does not fade for me?

It is not bad... it is simply normal!!! Your wife flushed the ring down the toilet, but everytime you will tell her what she has done, she will feel much more frustrated then you are for that gesture!!!

| | | 43. rchaubey51 (4) | 6 months ago | yes its very true that its comparitively easy to forgive but its next to impossible to foget specially when persons close to your heart betray you.I wont be able to explain it properly in english thats my draw back. Relations are stiched with the thin thread of love, during the span of time & if it gets broken than you cant joint the broken thread and even if u are sucessful in jointing it then the KNOT will serve as a reminder for the whole life.
