Relationship Forgiveness---No easy feat

There are so many emotions and circumstances to evaluate. Many tough choices to make especially when you're emotionally in disdain and you can be angry, you can be hurt, it's "normal" and it's healthy.

But I realized that if you hold on to anger towards a person then it evolves into bitterness and it only hurts you in the long run. That person is long gone and into the next relationship and you are still angry....it isn't a good feeling.

So choose to forgive and let go of the anger.

I think that all too often we are quick to say what we would do, when in reality our hearts may be broken but with time and a lot of effort can be repaired and although that person hurt us, the love for them doesn't just dissipate into thin air. EVERYONE deserves forgiveness. If not for them, then do it for yourself so you don't evolve into a cold-hearted, bitter person. After all, we would expect forgiveness and a second chance if we made a mistake.

People give up far too easily in relationships/marriages. Sometimes we have to set our pride aside and forgive them and give it another shot. I am not saying let this person disrespect you , and if they aren't remorseful, be my guest and walk away, but if they are truly sorry and seeking your forgiveness, give it to them. It will make you feel better in the long run.

Sometimes they just need a little guidance and if you could be the one to guide them back instead of being belittling and judgmental the you're the better person for it. :)

Love is a complex emotion with no easy way out...
