How long does it take you to forgive someone that

hurt you deeply? For me it might take years and that depends if they apologize and mean it.

Forgiving someone isn't for them, it is for me. When I forgive someone who has wronged me, it is I who sleeps better, doesn't keep gnawing at the injustice done to me. I forgive because as long as I don't that rot is getting rent free space in my head. How long it takes me to realize it depends, once I realize and know that it is bothering me way more than the other person, I let it go. Sometimes, it is days, sometimes it is weeks or months, or years.
You can't just snap your fingers and forgive. Some times it takes time. @Roadsterrider

@Roadsterrider youre right, we only give those people power over us when we don’t forget what they did. Leave it to karma to deal with them.
