I forgive you, but I wont forget what you didnot in some threatening, I dont really forgive you kind of way but just because what you did was shitty and really hurt me and I cant imagine it suddenly disappearing from my memory. In a way, its even cooler that Ill remember that shitty thing you did to me, and youll remember that shitty thing I did to you. That means we didnt need to forget that we hurt each other in order to love each other still. We figured out a way to forgive each other, for real, and still be friends. How beautiful, yes? Lets never forget that, either.
