I Believe In Forgiveness

Life really is too short.

Whenever I fight with with my S/O I remember something I heard when I was a teenager. I had a bf back then who's dad died. His mother attended a bereavement group where she met a young guy who had been on holiday in China with his gf. One night they had had a big row at the hotel and she had stormed off. After a while when she hadn't returned he went looking but found nothing. The next day she was found dead, she'd been attacked and murdered. He was devastated, but the worst thing, he said, was the fact that their last words had been in anger.

I never forgot his story and I always try to make up as quickly as possible...I hate to think that my last words to anyone I care for would be angry ones.

You're so right. My s/o has never resolved a single conflict with me. After weeks of the silent treatment, she then wants to act like nothing ever happened. I can't continue with her.

@SW-User You can't let resentment build like that forever

You're right. You can't. You might for a while. But not forever. It's not possible
