I find it easy to forgive. Even the people who have treated me the worst (you may be surprised that I don't include anyone I've been in a relationship with in that category) I wish well; I want them to live good lives and to learn to treat people better. I hope likewise that people will forgive me my trespasses against them.

What is difficult for me is rebuilding trust. If someone has hurt me repeatedly I find it difficult to believe that they will not hurt me in the future. Again, I forgive and wish them well - but that doesn't mean I can handle being around them until I know they're going to treat me better.

@noelle i think this is understandable and healthy, generally
