Gosh, I was thinking about what I wrote and I wanted to add--I know I said try to forgive because it seemed like it was unintentional from what you posted but I don't know what happened so I don't know if what I said was the right thing to say...I remember the people who hurt me and I don't think I could be friends with them again. I don't wish them anything bad though, but I guess it is like they say, I have forgiven but not forgotten. I have said it a million times but I finally realized I cannot make someone feel something they don't feel (in love or in friendship) but the other person should try at least to be nice about it... For myself, whenever I used to get hurt, I would keep it in, and it would fester. Nowadays, I am slightly (only slightly mind you, and only sometimes) more able to tell the person how I feel about what they did to me. Sometimes it clears the air and starts a conversation, and sometimes the other person gets defensive. Still, I have always been glad I was able to tell them how I felt if nothing else. ...I'm still working on me...
