Some advice I recieved on forgiveness ... and you know how advice goes .. its so much easier to give it away than it is to put it in your own tool box and use it yourself sometimes
But, the spin on it was ... you forgive, not forget ... and when you forgive its a choice, YOUR choice, its a choice for you ... not him. You forgive him for you and your sanity, you forgive to release the hold of what he as done to you so YOU can be free of it. Its easier said than done ... but when I realized I was holding on to this anger and frustration it was only affecting ME ... me being angry and hurt as she was with OM in the A did NOTHING to her. So I had to stop and realize ... I had to forgive her for ME. Now .... am I over it completely ... not even, but the sting is not as bad I will tell you that.
Anyways .. looks like you are on your way ... keep going !!
