Are you quick to forgive?

except for a few, which my family has done... but will be forgiven at a later date.

I tend to hold grudges and get pissed at the person every time I see them.

Generally

For most lesser things, yes. But some of the plotted actions that are over the top bad, not likely that I will.

I LEAVE IT FOUR DAYS THEN LET THE PERSON OFF

I can be, if the offending party also sees remorse and forgiveness as a form of active listening and active communication (which involves two parties, at minimum) that may involve one or more processes meant to prevent repeat offenses.

Otherwise, no. And not forgiving someone isn't necessarily the same thing as holding a grudge. Sometimes one just goes on with their life without the other able or willing to visit the whole forgiveness process and yet they don't hold a grudge either. Sometimes you just have to leave people behind to their own devices.

To many people though, life is an either you forgive others or you hold grudges false dilemma rooted in dogmatic religious or other beliefs. If they believe this is "the reality," then that's what they will live. Not everyone will share this reality with them.

Yes

still i can forgive, but forgive and forget are different

Yes, what's the point not too, what will you achieve in life to hold a grudge?

Holding grudges are pointless and bad for your mental health

absolutely!! Bring a full bucket, walk on the water and you're forgiven.

There's no point holding a grudge against someone; life's too short and sweet to linger on the negatives.

And I should work harder on that.

Most of the time no but in rare insistence's yes.

Yup, I never used to be, I once held a grudge for a year back when I was 12, but now I just don't like to drag out those bad feelings! :)

I'll say they're forgiven but really, I'm probably more hurt than I'm willing to show.

whatever the person did will always be in the back of my mind

I never forget

its sad, and im weak, but i just cannot hold a grudge

Hey dude you're not weak, you're just super nice :D

why thanks:) i've always been kinda soft

It makes you the better person, you have a good heart :-)

thankyou to you, too :)

Yes. I'm pretty quick at forgiving people, especially if they're apologetic.

Holding grudges doesn't help me.

need a undecided or something ; itt all depends on the situation for me..
if its something stupid or small, then yeah. but if it something that truly hurts me, deep down from a person i really trusted and they show me not to.. then i wouldn't be springing to forgive them asap! but i would forgive anyone no matter what, doesnt mean i have to talk or anything to them though.

No I am not!!!

I can be. I guess it really depends on who it is.

I forgive but don't forget. I believe in forgiveness--but it is hard to do yet it does not mean you accept what they did or condone their actions but that you are not willing to let it bother you or eat away at you anymore.

If it's somebody that I am very close to then I will always forgive them very quickly, probably because nobody I am close with would do anything that would lead me to hold grudge... If it is somebody I don't care about, and they did something that actually made me mad I will just stop communicating with them, so they wouldn't really know they had upset me, or if they did then they wouldn't really have a chance to say sorry ^.^

It usually takes a few hours. There is no point in bitterness. Why would I waste time being angry over an issue that could be resolved through a peaceful discussion? This may also reveal the fact that people rarely do anything to me that is unworthy of forgiveness. I can forgive a harsh word easily.

People don't usually own up to what they do, so it takes a long time for me.

I can't hold grudges.

But it depends on the issues! Sometimes I am and sometimes I'm not!

It's really hard for me to stay mad at people.

i AM CAREFUL TO FORGIVE. sATAN IS THE pRINC EOF THE wIND. hIS MESSAGE IS CARRIED IN SPEECH AS WELL AS IS jESUS cHRIST;S. i CAN AFFORS TO TAKE MY TIME TO FORGIVE. FORGIVING SATAN IS A USELESS VENTURE, sO TAKE YOUR TIME IN THESE DAYS WHEN YOU FORGIVE.

I suck at being angry for more than a few hours, with my boyfriend? 2 minutes max XD
