One does not have to forgive unless the other requests forgiveness.
However, you might wish to reframe what it is you are forgiving her for... and that might help you find something to forgive? If she denies you were harmed, then no, you can't forgive her for not validating the truth. You might forgive her for her ignorance, or some other negative trait she has. See what I mean?

It does no good to say you forgive, because you want to take the higher road, or because you feel it will help you heal, if you can't embrace it. Find another word to apply to the situation, that will help you heal ..in case you really can't forgive.
