Not really. Sometimes it's more difficult than others,but I always end up forgiving.
I just try and consider why that person would do what they did and attempt to make some sense out of it. If that fails,then I think about how I'm not perfect and if I want people to forgive me for my shortcomings,then I need to be able to forgive also.Forgiving someone doesn't mean that the hurt is gone,but it helps you to move on. It can take quite a bit of time to forgive someone,but when you finally do,you know you're truly able to move on now. It's very healing for yourself....to forgive. YOU ARE NEVER TRULY ABLE TO MOVE ON IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO FORGIVE.(no matter what you try to tell yourself) Just something to think about.

No. I have no trouble and the advice I'd give is to look at it this way: we all wrong everyone and nobody likes to be grudged against. I say just forgive them as fast as you can, whether they are really sorry or not, and focus on what YOU can do to fix YOUR situation or embarrassment.
The Bible commands forgiveness though. If we don't forgive others, the point will come when God won't forgive you, so now is the time!

I never have a problem forgiving others. My secret is to aknowledge the problem when it arises so that I don't harbor any ill will to begin with. All of my friends and family know that after a problem has been brought up and discussed, it is done. This way people always know where they stand with you and vice-versa.

Most people who are close to me I have a hard time forgiving, but for some reason it's very easy for me to forgive strangers and people I don't know well. I suppose it's because of the history involved; if someone I know well is patient and kind and forgiving with me, it's easier for me to forgive them for anything.

No I forgive everyone. If they have hurt me enough to need to forgive them they are probably friends or family and I just keep remembering what if I wake up tomorrow and they are gone and I haven't forgiven will it have been worth it? So far the answer has always been that its not worth it, so I forgive. I just dont forget the lesson.

Forgiveness is a key to healing. We must forgive in order to heal.We cannot expect to heal until we forgive.I have the love of the Lord to give me strength plus some other little tricks I use. But the big thing is my faith in the Lord!

Yes,I do have a problem because if I forgive them,tehy go and do it again and annoy or hurt me again.I don't know what is wrong with me,or is it them?Anyway,if I know the person won't repeat that,I forgive them,if even they repeat I can be so mad that I promise I will never forgive them,harsh,I know,but that is just my life and the people that surround me.

I used to but now it's easy for me because with God in my heart and the fact that i want to be like him helps. It's hard dont' get me wrong but I find that forgiving someone takes the pressure and makes me a better person.

Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself...it's not for the other person. Rage and negative thoughts can eat you up, literally, causing illness. I write things down, maybe in poetry, maybe a list, whatever comes to mind, then I have a "burning bowl" ceremony and burn the piece of paper up and send the negativity out as smoke so it fades away to nothingness. It works for me and has for 10 years now.

No, not usually. I tend to live by the forgive and forget. If not it will just eat you up inside and you will always be fighting with those people that you love. There are those people that I have had problems with and have not forgiven them and we no longer speak, but they were not pivotal people in my life, or I would have forgiven them.
