Is forgiving means going back to his arms again? It takes more than love and respect to enter into marriage. It requires trust which they say is like a glass which when broken, cannot be returned to its original state again.

hi Paper_Doll, you are right but does it mean that we should not forgive them?? we should behave with them in an odd manner??

No, we can always forgive those who hurt or betrayed us. Revenge is never an option as it can sometimes hurt you more in the end. I don't think those people should expect the same treatment again as it would be really hard for people to trust again. It is also normal for someone who was betrayed or cheated to feel that way. It would take time to heal a wound. Maybe in time, they will eventually forget the pain.

Forgiveness is good but some mentally it is not possible to forgive all the time . hate rate is a natural expression. but for some people you have to show hatred otherwise they think that you are weak & exploit you is taken for granted

becuase it' easyer probably, because it's a natural feeling, hate same as love comes with human nature. but even if at first you hate that person later forgieveness comes. revange in my opnion it totally useless. it only consumes your time and energy and in the end you'll never win anyhting

Why should we forgive someone who treated us bad? Is that the way to raise/correct a person? You really think that person will change his/her behaviour if you do so? If someone behaves bad that person has to learn what is accepted what not. It's really not that hard to be honest and leave instead of abusing people. You should also ask yourself if you really hate that person, are angry at that person or if you actually are angry with yourself. Since you are the one who accepted this kind of behaviour and were too "stupid" to notice you were abused. In many cases we are angry with ourselves since we did not put it to a halt.

Well hate is a common human emotion. People hate and hold grudges for many reasons. Feeling betrayed or taken advantage of can leave people feeling bitter and resentful. The more hate a person has in his heart, the harder it is for he or she to forgive. I mean if you hate people so much the last thing you would want is to say "ok I forgive you". You would do everything to hold on to that feeling of hate. Hate is not something that is easy to let go off. You have to make a conscious decision and say a "I am going to forgive you". Some people have been hurt numerous times which makes it harder for them to forgive others easily. But, you're right it is better to forgive other people because in doing so, you're helping yourself even if you don't realize it.
