    It's easy to forgive, but nearly impossible to forget. When someone with whom I am close does something to hurt me, I often forgive it. I do not, however, forget and find it difficult to fully trust that person ever again.

    I do agree with others who have said that grudges are a waste of time and energy. Holding a grudge only hurts the holder.

  • I usually forgive fairly easily, I don't hold grudges, it's not a conscious decision for me for some reason. I notice though that when people get mad at me they tend to hold grudges.

    I forgive pretty well, but there are a few people I will never talk to again because of some of the things they have done to me. I agree, grudges are a waste of time you could spend being happy.

    Grudge and then try to forgive. It depends the severity of the damage someone has done.

    i forgive easily but i still remember in the back of my mind.

    life's too short to hold grudges.

    I try to choose my battles wisely and decide whether or not I should confront them. If not, I accept the fact that our relationship is weakened by their offense but continue to look at the positives in the relationship and try to avoid focusing on the negatives. But If I am holding a grudge, I will have to confront the person.

    I cant hold grudges for ever.. I can forgive so that I can let go of my own pain and live and let live, life is short.

    it depends on the person.. when that person is nice to me then i can forgive easily but when the person is bad to me.. i kind of hold grudges on them..
