Forgiveness

Sometimes we feel like time can help change a person. We assume that in that time frame, whether how long or short, that person can find the good in themselves that they once had. This is something that we all wish would be true for everyone. But the reality is that some people can't change, even if they want to. We are always looking to quickly forgive someone for their wrong doing. It's like we completely ignore all the shit that person has put us through and think they magically changed for a reason. We put the history, the friendship, the memories in our mind and it outweighs the pain that was once caused. When a person FINALLY leaves your mind, you're happy and having fun. Living the good life. But the moment that person pops back up, it's like we're sent on a roller coaster. More questions are asked now then ever before. Did they really change? Will it be a mistake if I don't forgive them? What if this, what if that? Seriously, aren't we the SAME person that just said we wouldn't take this person back no matter what a few months ago? And you see how quickly that feeling goes away? It's all part of human nature but we can't forget a few certain things. We must remember that we left this person for a reason. The relationship ended for a reason. If the relationship started off where they left someone to be with you, that alone should tell you what kind of person they are. Who knows though? Maybe they did change. But these are just a few things that people need to consider when going back to an ex. You don't want to be caught in a cycle over and over again. Break it. Whether make the rules or move on. It just sucks to have to see people go through this from time to time. They're the only one in control, no matter what anyone else says to persuade them.
