Forgiveness has to be one of the hardest thing to do as a human. I mean we have emotions, we must have trusted some people in the past and end up been hurt by them.

The pain, the anger, the depression, the shock and everything can be so devastating. We would not even want to see them anymore or talk to them. But we end up carrying the grudge in our hearts like a heavy load. 

You can only forgive others when you look at them like YOU. You seek forgiveness from God for your shortcomings, and he forgives you. You need to forgive others so you can be forgiven too, remember?

Even for those who hurt you without any remorse, you need to know that you don't need to hear them ask for forgiveness before you let them go from your mind. 

View them as though they don't know God's love, because if they did, they would do better than hurt you. And as for you who understands the need to forgive and enjoys God's love, it will be the best thing to see them through God's eyes.

You need to have compassion, because you can't be sensibly angry with someone who hasn't experienced the type of love you have experienced from God. Give them the grace ro experience the type of love God shows you by forgiving them.

However you need to guide yourself, you don't need to expose yourself to a position where you get hurt repeatedly. Forgive them and give the right boundaries for your mental health. You don't need to allow constant toxicity cripple you
