Our eyes are placed in front because its more important to focus on the future than the past.

we all learn from our mistakes.
if you had a traumatic experience but still love the other person then by all means sit and talk and maybe try again.
What have you got to lose?
There may be a long history there.
Have empathy for the other person acting stupid.
Sometimes the grass looks greener on the other side..same grass...different side...we only have one life to live and we must be forgiving. I think maybe you are still missing the other person also so much that you need to try again.
God told us the only thing we owe each other is love.
And face it...if things get bad again the person knows you will put distance again.
Give it a try. Pray about it...Have a dialog stating all the facts before you both leap into anything.

I don't think we ever forget the past under "normal" circumstances. Over time we learn to deal with whatever has happened and then we make a choice to move on and try to learn something from it. Forgiving is also a choice. We can choose to forgive someone, whether or not they ask for our forgiveness, or ever show remorse. Holding on to anger only hurts the one who is angry. It will lead to bitterness and will make one become a miserable and even physically ill person. It isn't easy and it won't happen in one day. Time is a great healer.

I have learned to forgive but some things I just can't forget. Forgiving comes easy for me. I try to put myself in the other persons shoes and see things from there. Just cause I forgive doesn't mean I let them in my life to 'do' it again.

You can't forget, but you can forgive. Forgiveness is for you, and not the person that injured you. You will be healthier, happier, and live a more productive life if you allow yourself to let go and move on.
Happiness is the best revenge.

think that it never happened and convince yourself that it didn't because as philosophy advocates, we shape our reality and what arises is the similarities. So you have to convince yourself and the other person that what ever happened did not happen so that it can be forgotten. that's my phil at least.

just try to live at the moment.....just like little kids. They always live
at this moment....they never worry about tomorrow. if you tell them I will buy you a toy, they never become worry If you buy that or not.they just become happy and wait for tomorrow...I know it is hard but it is possible.whenever you feel like you are thinking about past....give it up and focus to this moment.....like I said it is hard but you will get use to it. Good like

Put together a positive, good memory bank. When you start to think about the past, take out that good memory bank, and start remembering! It really works if you "really" want it to. okay?

No philosophy involved...
It's called a full frontal lobotomy. It is quite effective too.
