We all make mistakes and we all have times that we are ashamed of what we are doing or have done. The key is to learn from those mistakes and not keep repeating them. The second key is to forgive yourself and ask for forgiveness. God is always ready to forgive, he is just waiting on us to ask. People are the ones that hold things over our heads. Just remember the people who truly care about you will forgive you, it may take some time for them to see you truly mean it, but eventually they will. Hang in there it will be ok, nothing is impossible for those who believe. God bless you.
