Forgiveness Isn’t Always the Best Option

 

I guess we have reached that point to liquidate! Now that Our relationship is over
You go your way and I shall go mine.

When you’ve been hurt, you may feel pressure to accept forgiveness from the person who wronged you. Whether that pressure comes from society, family, or within, it can be hard to ignore it. Sometimes, though, forgiving isn’t the best option.

This may come as a shock because you mostly hear that forgiveness is essential. You will hear that it is the only way to heal and move on, but this isn’t always true.

By not forgiving someone, you are not dwelling on the past or harboring negative emotions. Instead, you are staying true to yourself. No matter what anyone tells you, you do not have to forgive someone who has wronged you.

Sometimes, not only is forgiveness not the best option; it may even become the worst option. It is up to you to decide, however, if you will forgive or not. Consider the situation as your other options, and then decide what will be best for you.

Just because you’re staying single, after a breakup, doesn’t mean you are lonely. Whether you’ve always been single or just left a relationship doesn’t matter. You will no doubt dodge many invasive questions from friends and family members.

While these prying family and friends mean well, you can remain a party of one and still be happy. A motto to live by is that it’s better to be single than to waste your life dealing with the wrong person.

Recent statistics report that about 50.2 percent of people in the United States are single, which is more than double the percentage in the 1950s. Of course, some of these people are widowed or divorced or are in a relationship but live separately. However, some are just enjoying their independence without a significant other, which is completely acceptable.

Final thoughts.

The term lets part as friends, is highly overrated. Some folks can do it while others can not. I've lived with women and did not marry  them... my excuse was I have already tried marriage. I've also stumped my little toe, and it was not fun, I don't see any reason to do that again either.
