Forgiveness is something that takes time and effort. Some are more than willing to forgive, while others are too stubborn to accept that one can change. It's definitely a two-way street. How much are you willing to forgive someone? Has there ever been people you refuse to forgive? Share. Thanks.

I'll be able to forgive someone if they want to show that they can change. There have been plenty of times where I refuse to forgive them though, it's all based on the situation.

It depends really, sometimes i can forgive pretty easily and sometimes not so much.

Forgiving someone can be really hard sometimes, it's not as easy as some might think, it might get easier with time, like for example i might not be able to forgive someone who did something wrong today but maybe in a week or a month from that day i might be able too.

I never ask for forgiveness for anything, ever!


No regrets! :3

It's kind of complicated... I want to forgive people for the stuff they do because I believe it's just in their nature to do what they do and they don't know how to do anything else. Nobody really escapes their nature. At the same time, that doesn't mean I don't hate their nature. So even though it's not on a personal level, I still tend to hold a grudge. I dreamt last night that I ran back into three people that used to gang up and pick on me after having not seen them for 7+ years and my first instinct was to inconspicuously get a firm grasp on the knife I keep in my right pocket in case they decided to get physical.

As far as asking goes, I probably say sorry about every other sentence because I try really hard to not inconvenience people and I often think I am, even when they tell me I'm not.

I rarely ever ask for forgiveness. I will apologize if I have done wrong,but not ask forgiveness.

As for myself,I may forgive,but I will not forget.

I always ask for forgiveness in the next second after i did something wrong cause i like having friends and i hate drama. But I rarely did a 'major' problem that causing i losing my friends, its just some minor problem like accidentaly hit my friend's head with a chainshaw or somethin (jk lmao)

If I mess up or hurt someone's feelings I usually ask for their forgiveness the second I realize what I've done. I hate being in bad terms with someone if I know I'm the one at fault. I also forgive pretty easily, at least no one's ever done anything so unforgivable to me that they'd forever be my enemy, but forgiveness doesn't mean I'd ever forget. So even if I forgive someone for hurting me I stay on my toes in case they try it again.

Not often but it's not good if you have to ask for someone's forgiveness and you don't mess up often. Also, this would do better in café corner since it deals with real life so I'll summon

It depends on severity, if it's something bad then of they show they want to change then I'll probably forgive them. But if they do something unforgivable in my eyes they can try all they want but I'm not going to budge my judgement.

I ask for someone's forgiveness if I have done something really bad, and when I do....I panic and I say sorry more times that I can even count, its not easy for everyone to do something of that because of pride.

I apologize for things I do wrong (sometimes too often), but I rarely actually ask someone if they can forgive me. I doubt that asking them will make them change their mind and I don't want to come off as desperate.

I'd say I'm almost always willing to forgive someone because anger feels like such a waste of time and I believe that people can change and learn from their mistakes, especially if others believe they can and motivate them.

I have to forgive people in school all the time when my classmates ask me to borrow a pencil and I never see it again (often times, I think that neither do they because they lost it). But when it comes to big things like someone suddenly losing interest in me, or getting in a relationship and forgetting about me, that hurts a lot more. As a Christian, I know I'm always capable of forgiving people no matter what they do, but it tends to take longer with the more extreme situations. I've burned bridges with some people because I struggled to forgive them, and some because it just wasn't working out regardless of whether or not we forgave each other.

Like I said, there have been people I've refused to forgive but at some point, I came to the conclusion that not forgiving them would make things worse for them and me. It's as hard as it looks to forgive, if not harder, but it's never impossible

I only apologize for things if I truly feel I did wrong. Either that or I just apologize to make them feel better. It really depends on the situation really. There have been a lot of times in the past where I have done wrong and ended up asking for forgiveness a lot. I don't see myself doing that as much anymore since I don't get into that much trouble anymore, but it does happen to everyone from time to time.

I've read pretty much that everyone either waits until they've done something terrible, or they grudgingly apologize (but only if they're really wrong), and they generally don't ask for forgiveness.

Is it bad to ask for forgiveness? Is it terrible to say you're wrong and apologize even if you aren't?

Maybe it's that the community is more interested in the rules and the letter of the law and not the relationships that come with interacting with others.

The easiest thing in the world is to apologize and ask for forgiveness. I do it especially when I'm wrong but I do it if I'm right as well. If I'm correct but I hurt someone's feelings, or I can tell they absolutely believe their opinion is accurate or they, for whatever reason, simply don't want to accept something, I'll still ask for forgiveness.

It is simple, it's easy, it makes me look good, it makes them feel good, and there is never a time that an apology goes wrong.

Does everyone feel like they lose control or they look stupid or they lose power? I don't understand. Someone explain to me, please, why you stand your ground instead of simply apologizing and moving on?
