My mother passed this year in March.About a day later,my good friends'sister started to email me,with harsh statements about my mother.It hurt me even more.This was a very false accusation that this sister of my friend] This has still been hurting my feelings,since March. Sister sent me a letter,and a book from last christmas,It was from my best friend. I have not responded at all. I sometimes want to forgive,but there has been other issues.I felt they were very loyal and kind to me. Should i try and forgive and build our friendship back? I do feel like,i do not like the both of them anymore. Am i confused?

deb777 is verified as being by the original poster of the question Thank you for your answer Tisha 1. I emailed my good friends' sister and thanked them for the book. I also stated,i need more time to think about forgiveness. I was really hurt. I have no reply,and can not understand,why they do not attempt to call on the phone to talk and apologize. I am not. I did it 2 already,on other issues.

 I think that you should talk with your best friend about how what's happened has hurt you. You won't be able to move past this until you find out why it happened. Maybe her sister has some sort of problem? She emails while drunk and doesn't remember it later?
At this point, you have nothing to lose by being honest with her. Your friendship is damaged, and you'll lose touch over time. You'll also probably always regret not making that effort to repair things.
It's been a while now and they're probably wondering why you're so distant. Give it a try.
Take care.
