Forgiving Someone You Love

When it comes to close relationships, there will be times when people get hurt. No matter how much you care for one another or how hard you try to keep it from happening, sometimes your partner will hurt you. The real problem often lies in forgiving the person.

Sometimes we say we forgive and in our hearts we may really want to but true forgiveness is not as easy as said. Forgiving someone close to you such as someone you love is even harder because it comes with a betrayal and the fear that it will happen again.

When you truly forgive someone, you need to let the incident go. No matter how small or how big it was, you have to learn to deal with your feelings over it and then let it go. It will only hurt the relationship more if you continue to bring it up time and time again.

One of the biggest parts to learn is how to find trust again. When someone you love has hurt you or betrayed you, it's easy to feel like they are going to do it again at any moment. You say you forgive but you still walk around on guard, just waiting to catch them doing something wrong.
