UJ: forgiveness

hey there. i am having a dilemma....it's about when someone did something that hurt you. So, if they apologize...and most of you really doesn't want to accept it. What do you do?

Part of me knows that not accepting the apology would only be hurting me, but at the same time there is the other part of me which says that sometimes people don't deserve it. The latter seems like the less mature response...but honestly the one I want to go with. Especially when someone has a history of doing the same thing over and over again and thinking that an "I'm sorry" makes it all go away.

Sometimes I think forgiving someone just gives them the ability to do it to you again...

Oh, I don't know....if you know, feel free to enlighten me!
