To Forgive and To Forget, Really... how do you do it? Options

Have you had someone really important and beloved to you do something really bad/dissapointing/whatever to you which you simply cannot forgive, not to mention to forget? When in the end you ended up filled with so much hate, mixed with love and resentment no matter what you've tried to really forget and forgive? And the feeling still there like for 2 years as it kept popping into your head even when you were not intentionally want to think and when you least expected it? Well, maybe I'm in a bad mood today, but really... I want to hear your thoughts and experience on dealing with this.

Alafair is quite justified to state that a breach of trust is unforgivable. It is an invasion of privacy, both destructive and humiliating. However, given time I am sure she will learn to forgive again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

But forgetting the anguish of the betrayal could be harder and from my experience the sorrow of the loss of true friendship brought about from mistrust is almost as bad and the incident itself.

Time is the great healer and although the wounds of betrayal and loss of respect still weigh heavy, they will be dissipated over time. All strength to your arm! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/king.gif)
