I am trying very hard to forgive and to believe that they truly are just friends. but at this time i am taking time to do some things for my self. Gain some independence so that i may revisit this in the future when my anxiety and depression are under control

As a Christian I know I have to forgive...I think it is somewhat easier to forgive someone who has really and truly shown remorse...For a time I 'pressurised' myself to forgive and now I realise it is not really a process we have full control of...it will happen of its own accord in its own time...
