For those who went through a tough time with their SO that required forgiveness, what was the situation and how did you overcome it?

Bf was friend with his ex and she started dissing me subtly. He ignored her so she became racist about me and my country.I threw a hissy fit and he cut off contact with her without telling why. I was upset that he didn't defend me and thought just staying silent was a good idea. I was angry and we fought about it time and time for over a year. The worst part was he joked about her time to time as if I was the drama queen. The last time he joked about her, I didn't say anything or react.But in my mind, I had no future with him anymore. He called me very early the next day saying how sorry he felt about the stupid joke and that he promised to work on it.He's been saying sorry many times over this issue but for the first time, I could feel that he was really sincere about it and how upset he was at himself. This anger inside me went away and I finally forgave him.It wasn't my mind that made the decision. I just knew it from my gut that this issue is finally resolved.You cannot force people to feel sorry about their mistakes. It just have to come in their own time and I'm glad it came right before I was going to leave him for good.
