forgive others and forgive myself

I understand now that he didn’t mean to hurt me and i’m starting to hope that one day I can forgive him so we can be friends.

As for forgiving myself, that is a little bit harder. I expect myself to be perfect and can’t tolerate any weaknesses. I wish i’d tried harder in that relationship just as I wish I had had more self-respect when I was younger and not let people walk all over me.

My biggest regret is not treating myself with enough self-respect and I hope I can forgive myself for that one day.

This is a hard one – I wonder if it is possible to never forgive but just to forget – I mean just to place absolutely no importance on something or someone and get on with your life. At the moment forgiving the one who hurt me seems impossible.
