About This Quote
When you cannot forgive and forget, the best thing to do is pick one. Forgiving someone does not mean that you agree with their actions or that they should be able to get away with those actions. It means that you will go on and live your life, and they will go on and live theirs. You will choose not to respond to them in any way, and they will choose not to interact with you, whether it's by talking to you, sending you an email, or coming back to your home.You may not want to do this because it feels like giving up control of the situation, but remember that no matter how much control you think you have over a situation, there is always someone who has more control than you do.
