To be honest, I don't even know why I do that. It feels like a part of me has forgiven her for hurting me, but a much larger part still hasn't forgiven her, moved on, and gotten over it. I think I've mostly become numb to the topic, but every so often she will contact me in return, and all those old wounds flare up again. How can I get over this? How can I forgive her?
((barbiegirl))))) I have a friend , shes been my best friend since well prolly as long as i can remember. Her and I over the years have had a few disagreements. Each time we have reconnected. Either her or I have done it.
I think maybe imo you leave her a gift as in your heart she is still your friend and you care about her.
Forgivness gives healing to you.... it could be she is thinking about you on the other end.
To hang on to something just wears you out more. I know i am imperfect.
In my life i have been forgiven many time. Im so grateful for that.
Having patience with ppl is part of forgiving. Also maybe something was going on with her at the time?
Sending a prayer you find your way to forgiveness.
Thanks for this!
