I think Forgiveness is a sign of strength. To forgive and to take a negative and turn it positive are great survival skills, to adapt, to take an opportunistic approach to living can teach us all to get along. So forgive if you can. There are still some things that are unforgivable. To each thier own, but hatred and holding a grudge is actually harmful to your health, its like a slow disease or poison that eats you up inside. I find Forgiving but not forgetting is the most liberating. Take Care.-Rachel.

The sales insurance agent guy who I love very much I gave him a card, candy and gift in a bag for Valentine's day and he said that he will not accept it because it is inappropriate to give at an office. I just wanted him to accept it from a friend to a friend. He got mad about it and he did not forgive me about that. I think that forgiveness is a sign of strength and knowing when to forgive the other person for doing something to you that you did not like.

Did she cheat on you because of you, or did she cheat on you because she didn't have the willpower to stay faithful? In other words, were you mean to her and she just got fed up, were you not satisfying her, was there "writing on the wall" that the relationship was failing...or was she just promiscuous? If you were part of the problem, then you must be honest with yourself and definitely forgive her. If you were, indeed, the "victim" here, then you shouldn't waste another thought on her. If she did it to you once, there's a likelihood that she'll do it to you again. Noone needs that in their life. Forgiving is not a weakness, but a strength. If you truly forgive, then you will no longer be bothered by the stress of the situation, which is a win for you, leaving all the guilt to rest on her side.

Yeah for the most part it is a sign of strength. People who don't forgive tend not to be able to handle life to well.

It's a sign of strength and maturity. I think being too full of yourself too forgive is actually a sign of weakness.

To forgive is a divine act of strength. A weak person is one that doesn't find it in their heart to forgive and move on. I'm not saying that we forget people that have done us wrong. Learn from example. Peace :)!

Definitely a sign of strength. Plus forgiving adds years to your life. Harboring hatred takes away from your life.
