Question

.....forgive and forget?Or is it best to move on,settle somewhere else,and start afresh?

Answer 1

depends on the people if they're supportive then they're ok but if not forget them

Answer 2

People forigve, but forgetting isn't easily done.

Answer 3

There's no set rule.  Some people are unforgiving, and others are more understanding.  Similarly, it depends what you have done and how you have gone about trying to redeem yourself.  My friend's brother caused havoc for years, stole money from the family and ended up in prison, but when he came out he actively made a point of trying to rebuild relationships, asked for forgiveness, but most of all, he admitted he didn't expect anyone to forgive him, certainly not any time soon.  People can forgive but often don't forget, but that's ok, because that's when we learn.  This guy then went on to have two children and turned his life around.  In time everyone forgave him, and actually learned from him.  If you do, however, find yourself in a position where nobody will ever forgive or forget, you might have to make a fresh start, and accept that this is the consequence of your actions.  You should never hide from your past, but it can be good to start afresh, as a new, wiser you.  Good luck.

Answer 4

depend on the bad thing that has been done.
