How often do you forgive your friends? And how do you make it easy?

Do you talk to them if they do something that hurt or offended you? Or do you just go ahead and pretend like you weren't hurt?

If they don't seem to care enough, is it worth trying? I am afraid that forgiveness started to become a hard commodity. But then I know that's wrong. Because I think of the cross, and it's a gift paid for with a life.

When you're forgiven, it becomes easy to forgive. I just have to remind myself of it.

I'm not sure if there's anything to forgive. Maybe it's just time to admit this kind of friendship doesn't lead anywhere and neither of us is getting anything out of it anymore. I tried to meet with this friend several times this summer but it always failed so I'm not going to try again. So I'm like "yep, got it, won't bother again."

@CrazyMusicLover Aww. Sorry to hear that. In my case, the friend apologized and asked for resched but it's way late and I don't know... I was hurt so I made up an excuse and decided not to pursue.

@Casheyane If she writes, I'll see how I'll feel then but now I just feel like a bother so I won't write first.

@CrazyMusicLover Ahh. Take your time. There is this really sad quote from spider-man but im finding it more and more real. It says, "Expect disappoint. You'll never be disappointed. "

It's really sad... but also real. Though I have to point, it kinda lessens chances for happiness.
