How to Forgive and forget...

DON'T GET HUNG UP ON WHY
You can forgive someone without understanding why they hurt you. Demanding an explanation can be pointless as the may not know why they behaved that way themselves . A positive first step is to say 'I don't know why you did that, but I can accept that it happened and try to move on.
LET GO F BLAME
Forgiveness is a contract between two people. One promises not to repeat their behaviour, while the other agrees t leave it in the past. There'll always be trigger points thar remind you of that pain. Establish a way to discuss how you feel at those moments without bringing up what happened.
ACCEPT THEIR APOLOGY
If you´re upset you may suspect someone of faking apology, or just saying the words to get things back on track. Try to accept their apology whitout suspiccion. Thing of it as the crucial plataform for further communication.Once they know you accept their regret is fenuine, you can start to rebuild the relationship.
OPEN UP
A hard part of forgiving someone is felling vulnerable to future betrayal, as there's no guarantee they won't hurt you again. Restoring trust is tough. But vulneravility is the key to intimacy, so try to see it as a necessity toward mending the relationship. If you're are always wondering "what if ?' you wont to be able to get close again.
