Classic example of Virgo not forgiving...
This topic was created in the Virgo forum by VirgoMerlot on Thursday, April 18, 2013 and has 1 replies.
I had a good job, but we lived 2 states away from my mother in law. She guilted my wife into moving to her town so she could see our daughter. I did not want to go, but I did anyway, against my better judgement. The job I had lined up fell through, and we had to stay with the MIL for a couple months.
The MIL went out of her way to make sure that everyone under the roof was absolutely miserable. So, once we got out of there, into our own place, I have not seen or spoken to the MIL since. Its been about a year and a half. I stayed home on Thanksgiving, and watched football. I stayed home on Christmas too. The MIL has told my wife that she can't understand why I hate her so much, and wishes I would come around. I reminded my wife that I told her that I will never see that witch again.
Fast forward to last August. My mother died, and since my dad died in 2006, both my parents are dead. The MIL told my wife that she figured that I will come around because she is the closest thing to a parent that I have now. I hadn't laughed that hard in a very long time.
Some people (my wife) think that I am harming myself by holding grudges and not forgiving. I'm not. I don't sit around and let this get me down. I simply do not want that cancer (not the sign) in my life, and I've made a decision, and I won't forget it. I have no reason to let the troll back into my life. I have ditched good friends simply because they had a negative outlook on life, so I'll be damned if I'm going to let a destructive and nasty person back into my life just to complete a fake family portrait.
Just my thoughts on the forgiveness issue.
