First of all, Twisted Sausage makes a good point. Is he even worthy of being forgiven for? For you, yes it would be easier to get it of your chest and be able to let it go. You have no way of deciding what choices he makes, but you can decide how you react to it, deal with the effects of his actions. I don't know what happened between you two, but holding on to something like that will only drag you down with it as well.

I'd like to leave you with a quote by the awesome Mandela, “Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies.”

The question is not how you forgive him the question is do you want to forgive him.I think where I perhaps didn't elaborate on this it has been taken out of context, what I was putting forward is that to forgive someone who has treated you wrongly in the past you need to want it. Forgiveness should not come because you think it is the right way to act it should come because you truly have forgiven him.

Yes, he's just done so much stupid things in the past. I hold grudges and I can't seem to let it all go, we've sat down an d talked about it so many times but for some reason I just can't let go of it.

I just need to suck it up, and move on. If I keep this on we will end up breaking up and I don't want that. I fought to hard for our relationship to end over my problem of holding grudges.
