Adrian,
I think that as I use to, there is a misunderstanding of Forgiveness. Forgiveness is really for the forgiver. It has been said that not forgiving is like taking poison, and waiting for the other person to die. It is really about letting go of it all. This site here has a pretty good definition. It can be taken further, but this is a good basis and explanation.

The trouble with forgiving anyone is that the transgressor needs to repent first and in my experience this seldom happens

I was brought up by great parents who taught me too share and help others. SORRY Mom and Dad that advice and childhood has screwed me my whole life. My advice never trust anyone ever. Trust your gut . Believe in yourself and love yourself to survive.

Easier said that done. I’ve always been generous and giving to others, and all it’s done (over the years0 has made me feel used and abused. I never learnt boundaries growing up and was a people pleaser – what I was taught. When you get to your mid life, it’s harder to take the big risks you could when you were younger, and especially if you have had financial loses along the way. Even harder if you’re single and can’t afford to take the risks at a later stage in your life. Depends what you want I guess, it’s not always that straight forward.

This is exactly how I try to live. But I still experience a lot of regret and unhappiness. I wonder how badly ithers must feel. This must explain the prevalence if substance abuse.

“People don’t feel the happiest in their passive, sitting-back-and-eating-popcorn moments.” Speak for yourself. I am ABSOLUTELY happiest in my passive, sitting-back-and-eating-popcorn moments. Nothing I have ever accomplished has given me as much of a sense of satisfaction or well-being. It makes me feel like there’s something wrong with me.

And then there’s this: “When you’re with people, be genuinely interested in what’s going on in their lives.” But what if you’re NOT genuinely interested? You can’t just make yourself be interested in something if you’re not. You can fake it, but that’s about it. Again, I feel like there’s something wrong with me for feeling this way. But most of what people have to say is just not that interesting. 🙁
