Is it normal that i'm friends with my old enemies?

I have become somewhat friends with a girl who was backstabbing me and told my secrets recently again..and I feel bad for giving her another chance. I also today have been talking to my ex boyfriend who mentally abused me and we had by far the most unhealthy relationship ever..should I feel bad about this? Should I feel bad and wrong about forgiving these people that treated me so horribly? Or, is it normal to forgive?

    Many of my friends were once enemies.

    Its good to forgive, but everyone isn't always willing to change that easily. Some folks like to get really close, just to fuck you over in the long run.

    Just because you forgive, does not mean you should forget. I don't hold grudges against people who have hurt me in the past but I certainly do not invite them into my home.

  • Stop telling other people your secrets.

    Yes, you are normal to forgive them - you care about them, right.

    Set some boundaries though, otherwise you will continue to be hurt by people - and not just them, this is a pattern that will continue for the rest of your life if you do not get control of yourself now.

    It sounds like you are only forgiving those who constantly hurt you and it looks like you are desperate for attention.

    It's cool to forgive, but that doesnt mean keep going back to them.

  • Your question here is to ask "IIN to forgive"

    You and I both know the real reason you submitted this was so you can get people that feel sorry for you.
