For me, forgiveness is the acceptance that things happened and I'm willing to put then behind me so I can move forward. I don't think forgiveness is for he other person-particularly when they haven't asked for it or don't even think it's needed. It's what is necessary for you to come to peace with what has happened. Doesn't give someone a free pass, excuse someone's actions or behaviors, or make all forgotten. To me forgiveness allows you to heal (and it is a process) to get you to a place you want to be.
I do understand your thought process. However, the reality is someone may never change, ask for forgiveness, or think that an apology is necessary. Think about where that leaves you. Stuck., IMHO.
