DAE have trouble with forgiveness?

I have that too. Recently I have come to the place where I realized it's not their fault. It's mine for letting myself be treated this way...I didn't have to put up with it, but I did because I either thought I deserved it or didn't think I deserved any better....but in the end, I did stand up for myself and moved on.

Whenever I get the revenge fantasies, I have to remind myself that those people already helped me fuck up my life enough, and going and picking a fight or starting some big public feud will only make my life or reputation suffer. And that's something I can't allow. You can use your anger as a motivator to help you kick ass in your own life, but if your decisions are based on besting bastards from your past, then you're still not following your heart. You're letting hatred lead you, and probably away from what the real you really wants.
