I don't forgive easily. It's much harder to let people in as much if they violate trust or loyalty. I'm not perfect anyway. I've hurt people in my life, so I can't claim the monopoly on feeling hurt. But it's interesting to watch people take and take without giving. Yeah, even if you hurt me, I will still talk or listen to you, not because I want to but because I'd feel like a tool if I didn't, so out of courtesy I will but I've probably written you off. But it probably doesn't matter, since most of the time, the person isn't aware that they've ticked me off that much, which is the problem. They didn't care enough. But I guess you can't focus on the hurt forever, because it's stunting. You have to move on with your life at some point. Yes, the person has done me wrong, but what am I gonna do? I'd look stupid if I continue to be upset - which is what I realized in the end, so you just don't show your hurt. Instead, you let them be who they are. You later realize that their importance in your life has diminished and you expect less of them as time goes by.
