    Same Here twin :P Its okay if others make a mistake and I have to forgive them.But when I make a mistake I just hate it. I rather go die somewhere it's like how could I? I have no problem forgiving others I know they make mistakes and it happens but to forgive myself it's too hard. :

    To Forgive Myself....

    I find it harder to forgive other people. When I do something "bad" I at least understand what drove me to do it at the time. I know my feelings are true when I feel regret. Since I trust myself I can forgive myself and move on. I believe in myself to try my best to not make the same mistake again. Since there's no way to know what's going on in someone else's mind, I sometimes doubt that an apology is heartfelt. I do wonder if they feel bad for hurting me or just that they got in trouble for it. I don't trust others as much as I trust myself and that makes it difficult to forgive them as easily. I have a close friend that thoughtlessly hurts peoples feelings on a regular basis. Mostly it's by making the same mistakes over and over again. She spits out a quick "sorry" and keeps going. It's hard for me to forgive her a lot since she never takes the time to think about how she hurt someone and she seems to make little or no effort to keep it from happening again.

    Forgiving myself. Other peoples mistakes I can forgive easily since I've made plenty of mistakes myself. I tend to be way too hard on myself.

    I guess it depends on the situation and what I or the other person did. Usually I find it harder to forgive myself because it stays in my mind and I am a little too forgiving of others sometimes, and usually that leaves me mad at myself for forgiving them when they didnt deserve it. ha!

    I find it more difficult to forgive myself. If another person comes to me and apologizes, then I can forgive them. But there is really no way to apologize to oneself. So I end up thinking about mistakes and faults of mine without resolution.

    Forgiving others is the ultimate sense of character..forgiving yourself should be easy as beating yourself up only does the deed for someone else.

    forgive myself , because our conscience will haunt us continuously even we try to forgive , so if we forgive others means we feel some what our burden has been reduce and there is some sort of peace is in our heart as if we accomplished something great :)
