"when you are burned how easy is forgiveness?"

I think it is very difficult to fogive when that hurt comes from a friend or loved one. I guess it's the feeling of betrayal that gets overwhelming. Unfortunately I tend to dwell. When it is a stranger it's fluffed of...over quickly and forgotten. The deeper the ties the more the sting....for me.

I guess it takes time. Sometimes discussing it with the offender can help...change those feelings of hurt to understanding. Validate your hurt feelings to this person, so to speak.

Is this friendship ruined or worth saving?

Wishing yiu the very best
