Spinoff to forgive and forget..

How many times can you be hurt or "stepped on" before you can no longer forgive?

It dosent have to be exactly how many times, but when is enough, enough??

Re: Spinoff to forgive and forget..

uch...unfortunately, I have a history of letting myself be hurt way too many times before no longer forgiving. Enough should be enough long before I decide it is. Wish I had a good answer for you!

I would think when someone did physical harm to any of my loved ones.
That would be it for me.

it depends. I stopped being friends with my high school best friend during our college years the 2nd time she ditched me for a guy.

my one BM, I tried calling her about a million times before I gave up on her.

So, it really depends on the situation

There is a long story I have about one of my brothers exes. Im not getting into it.
Lets just say "I won my brother back!"
For what she did to him, me, and my family, I forgive a little, but I cannot forget!
I dont want to forgive at all! Should I feel guilty! She hurt me a lot!

The good part is he found the "right:" one. They are together 2 years and I am the MOH in their wedding in July! She turned out to be not only my SIL but one of my best friends!Chat Icon

Re: Spinoff to forgive and forget..

again, it would all depend on the situation and the people involved. some situations would warrant different responses, say if it involved someone you love, vs someone you could give a ratz azz about.

like other said, it depends on the situation, but in general i have a very limited tolerance for getting hurt.

GOOD QUESTION!
For me it depends on my friendship to begin with....And the circumstances.
Sometimes i will go the distance....other times i just need to get out

Re: Spinoff to forgive and forget..

Depends on what I want out of the relationship. If it is just someone to hang out with, I can let things go. If it is someone I thought I could count on as a true friend, it might only take once or twice for that status to change. Depends on how badly I was hurt too.

Me too. I'm a huge believer in karma and needing to let go. But I won't stay in toxic relationships...and that includes relatives and friends. I'll always forgive, I can't hold grudges.

Re: Spinoff to forgive and forget..

Unfortunately for me, due to too many past hurts, people get one chance in my book. I tend to write people off fairly quickly. I may not treat them as such, but the wall definitely goes up after just one time.

It depends on who it is. If I've mentioned that I'm hurt and it continues to happen, it doesn't take me long to "forget" that person.

enough is enough when it becomes a pattern... and not a mistake.
