Pyro Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 How does someone begin to forgive themselves for something that they might have done that was totally wrong and hurt someone in the process? --- littleroom When you do realize that what you did was totally wrong and that you should not have done it and then you make a promise to yourself to never let it happen again or at least try your best to not let it happen again. Simple as that. Link to post Share on other sites

Pyro Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Why does it not feel that easy Riddler? --- littleroom You need to realize that we are human, and as humans, we will make mistakes. There is no way around it. There is nothing to be ashamed of as long as you realize what you have done is wrong and that you have no interest in doing it again. We all have been there before, so have no shame my friend. Link to post Share on other sites

Mz. Pixie Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 LR- For me, being a Christian and knowing what I did was terrible! I tried to think back to the Bible, to the woman that was being stoned for adultery- to whom Jesus said, "Woman, where are those who condemned you?" "They do not judge you and neither do I. Go and sin no more" She was forgiven, why can't I be?? Its the hardest to forgive yourself. Once you ask for it, your higher power has already forgiven. It's gone, wiped clean. If only humans could do that! Link to post Share on other sites

MTK Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Riddler, Should one apologize for being a bad bf/gf even though the relationship ended a couple months ago- and/or ever ask for reconciliation? It's true you realize what you want when it's gone. Link to post Share on other sites
Pyro Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Riddler, Should one apologize for being a bad bf/gf even though the relationship ended a couple months ago- and/or ever ask for reconciliation? It's true you realize what you want when it's gone. I am sure that some would disagree with me, but if the relationship ending had anything to do with anything that you did that was wrong, then yes, be mature about it and apologize. Even if there is no chance of the two of you reconciling, be the bigger person and apologize. Now, if you are at that stage where you miss your ex and you are coping, then do not contact your ex. Wait until you have gotten stronger and have gotten over your ex before any communication. If one is to contact their ex for reconciliation, then they are not over their ex and they are still coping. Like I mentioned above, you should not contact your ex if you are still getting over them. if you are meant to get back with your ex, then it will happen. Fate I tell you.

MTK Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Thanks Riddler, It's one of those things that I keep blaming myself and looking at anything/everything I did wrong, and failing to "see" what she did wrong that ended the relationship. I don't think I'll be contacting her for some time then. Link to post Share on other sites
