How long does it take for you to forgive?

Fairydust · F
Depends what they did, I go through a process lol I’ll forgive but some I won’t allow back in my life.
Just got to get rid of the toxic crap.

I forgive quickly. But if a person repeatedly hurts me... they are no longer welcomed into my life.

There is only three people in my 63 years of life that I haven't forgiven. Those three people I never saw again after age 14.

Normally I can forgive easily. But there are a very few things which never can be forgiven. 😐

I forgive, I just don't forget.

It's hard to forgive someone that hasn't asked for forgiveness.
But so it doesn't affect me i just try tu forget about them
I don't care about forgiveness. If it happens its nice and the situation must have come to an organic resolution in its own time frame. Meanwhile, I have a great capacity for vengeance and resentment lol.

I forgive immediately now.
I might put myself out of reach of such situations happening again but I no longer hold them in my heart.
Whatever someone chooses to do is to do with them and not me.
There are some people I can’t forgive. I am prone to letting stuff go quickly and not holding grudges, but I have been hurt beyond forgiveness a few times.

I can forgive too easily, that's one of my biggest problems.
Rule of thumb: Forgive the sinner but not the sin. @Clyde04

It deppends on about what and to whom.
From inmediately to never.

I forgive those who seek forgiveness and actually work to change.
6x eternities, and you gotta save my life 2x...
@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Wow. You’re easy

I forgive and apologise almost straight away.
Both are sincere choices that often change my feelings rather than waiting until my anger or hurt has run its course. Yes, I've forgiven people for horrendous things.

Depends on the offense, but I do eventually.
Doesn't mean I give narsssicist any avenue into my life again.

Depends on a lot of things age and is it a habit are two things.

Quick

But I learn from it

I couldn't keep a grudge even if I had to
As they say, "Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me"

Somewhere between immediately and never.
Rambler · M
sometimes quickly and easily... sometimes never
It really depends on what they did and what they meant to me. There are a couple people I’ve never forgiven, but they were initially given more than one chance.
Ten years? Sometimes 20
Dino11 · M
I believe in 2nd chances
Nanori · F
What is forgiving 🤣
Context is everything

Depends on what they did. There are two people I will never forgive for what they did to me as a child.

I will forgive but it’s hard to forget.

Depends on what the person did
