How do you express forgiveness... to someone who hurt your feelings?

Answer 1

Sometimes people hurt you without meaning to or even with out knowing it.
Go to them and offer your forgiveness, if they don't understand, explain how you felt. "The other day when you _______ I felt _______ and it hurt me but you are important to me and I forgive you.

Answer 2

Really put the screw to them and In the thick of it all, Say I forgive you too....

I don't express forgiveness, I want them to know the seriousness of hurting my feelings and they will regain my openess over a period of time. A probation time if you will....

Answer 3

I give it a little time. Allow myself to feel the pain. After all, if someone hurt us, we do have a right to be upset.

Then, after I calm down, I ask about it, or sometimes they approach me about it. A quiet talk, some new insight, and I'm ready to forgive, and I just say it. Let them off the hook. I'm over it, let's move on.

Carrying it around keeps you down. Let it go.

I treat them well, with love, as if they had never committed the offense. When you can love someone as if they had never harmed you, then you know that you have achieved a state of forgiveness.
