I believe strongly in forgiveness.I try to forgive everything also out of religious motives.I try to be a Christian and consider forgiving others essential.And it works to the benefit of the person forgiving and the one being forgiven.
That being said I have some kids in my family I love very much.If anyone ever hurt them in any way shape or form,forgiveness would not be an option.The closer the friend would be and even more if it was a family member the less he or she could count on any form of forgiveness from me.That was the first thing that came to mind.
In general I also feel it's harder to forgive people who don't see anything wrong with what they did

I think forgivness is great, but I personally can't forgive people for everything they do especially if they are the people who are close to me. The people who are close to me should never treat me in a way where they would need to be forgiven. its easier to forgive those you arent close with or wont see again. I also think forgiveness is a trait you pick up due to your surroundings and how and where you were raised. For example i grew up in a shady neighborhood and had a rough family structure. I had a best friend for over 2 years and one day we were doing something ilegal and she got caught, i didnt until she narced on me. I stopped being her friend that day and have not spoken to her since. I cannot forgive someone for a break in trust. Im happier without her now she would have done it again or something worse later if i would have forgiven her because she would have felt like i was weak.

Well, ideally, one should forgive all acts of unkindness, betrayal, etc. Unfortunately, we don't. Forgiving is the easy part, it's the forgetting that is rough.
I have forgiven being lied to, physically abused, sexually abused, cheated on, abandoned with a 5 week old daughter to raise by myself, stolen from, all kinds of things. Just because I have forgiven these things, doesn't mean I have to continue a relationship with any of them who have offended me. Some things are easier to get over, others are not. I have learned from each of these things. Of course I have lost trust in people over the years, but not to the extent that I live a sheltered life. I now have a great wife, s decient relitionship with my parents & ex, a good family, great friends who I would trust with my or my children's lives, even a loyal dog.
I figured that if God has forgiven me for all the crap I have done, then I should be able to do the same.

I can forgive anyone anything, but that doesn't mean I have to put myself into a position to be hurt by them again. Forgiveness has to do with letting go of anger, and this isn't the same as allowing them to take advantage of you. Once someone does that, they could get my forgiveness, but they would have to work very hard to earn back my faith.

I think forgiveness is good for your soul because otherwise you let it obsess your whole life.
Unforgiving people get focused on all the bad and ugly.
They also have this tendency to blame anything bad that happens in their lives on that one person and most of the time its their own darn fault!
Forgive, at least in your mind, and let it go but that doesn't mean you have to hang out with that friend or family member. Just be tolerant if its necessary to be in the same place as them, and let it go!

I can forgive almost anything if they trully ask me to but sometimes they do it again and I cant forgive anymore and I just move on and loose them as friends cause they sure dont act like friends

God forgave us of all our sins and we are to forgive everyone else. If we don't forgive - God doesn't forgive us. It's easier said than done. You may forgive but some things can never be forgotten especially if someone hurt you you will not let them do it again.

God tells us to forgive those who have done something wrong to us.
Forgiveness is a decision. Not a feeling.
There is nothing that is not faithful to forgive. God has forgiven us when we accept His Son Jesus, as our Lord and Savior and repented of our sins. So how can those of us who have been forgiven, not forgive?
I can truly say that there is no one that I have not forgiven.

I can forgive a person for anything. I try and give everyone the benefit of the doubt. Even murderer's can be forgiven. What drives me is who lives in my heart.
