Do you have to be 100% done being angry to "forgive" someone?

Or can you just drop the subject, not dwell on itanymore, but still secretly stay a little pissed?

'Forgive' means stop being angry, so yeah, you kinda do have to be done being angry by definition. That said, I think society's view on the subject is really diseased. Forgiveness can certainly be helpful and healthy, but viewing forgiveness as a social obligation is just another way of denying people their feelings.
