writes:How is it possible to continue loving someone, even after they've been completely rude to you? See, there's this guy I used to be really good friends with. We were extremely close for a long time, until I went through a series of issues with my family that caused me to lash out at him unfairly. Since then, we've been on and off friendly with one another, but nothing even close to how we used to be. I've helped him all the times he's asked for it, with really substantial things, but it's pretty clear he still doesn't particularly want to be my friend anymore. For a while, I was sure I didn't even like him anymore - I mean, he's treated me like dirt even after all I've done for him - but even though it isn't the same pure love I used to feel, I still wish we were friends and that he didn't dislike me so much...what I don't get is how I can possibly still feel anything for him other than hatred and disgust at this point? And why I can't seem to feel anything like what I felt for him for anyone else? If you've done something mean to someone, apologized and all, how do you make them see how much you mean to them, and show them you aren't a terrible person? At this point, he won't reply to my texts, and even though I've tried asking for everything back, he still hasn't even acknowledged that I asked, so I'm afraid to try again. Is there any way to help someone forgive you??
