would you?
 
Ok a BIG question for everyone...
If someone called you names, harassed you, spread rumors about you around school, and bugged you to no end even though you told them you wanted nothing to do with them... would you accept their apology and forgive them?

Joeiss 04-17-2002 04:46 PM

Nope. I would call them names for about 5 years, then ask for an apology and see if they liked it.

:D

Revival 04-17-2002 04:48 PM

Rumors eh? I don't remember any rumors about you around our school.. oh wait.. nevermind.. I get it now..

Well, if I was in that position, I would think about how much that person means to me (if they were my best friend or a good friend, or just someone you say once every week). After that, I would take into concideration if they really mean it or not. If the apology is heartfelt and sincere, then I might give them another chance.

I can see the tough position you are in here Kristen.. I would be confused about what to do too :unsure:

Andromida_ 04-17-2002 04:51 PM

Maybe that apology didn't mean as much because it wasn't said to my face... I guess that could have somthing to do with it. Other than that I'm still really mad at this person. This person also seems to have gotten too many chances, and I don't know if I should give them another.

Revival 04-17-2002 04:58 PM

Well, yeah -- I guess. Everything means more to the face.. well, if I were the person you were mad at.. I wouldn't want to say it to your face.. I'd be afraid of being beaten ;)

Ric 04-17-2002 05:05 PM

In my experience the apology would only come after I had beaten the crap out of them, or a friend or older cibling intervined. I would accept that apology but if ever they started again, well then I would teach them a lesson. But I havent had to do that for a while now, I am in the 6th form and we treat eachother with a littlemore respect and act more maturely and responsibly.

If they apoligise and truly mean it they should be forgiven. After that if they do it again you should familiarise them with the Marquis Of Queensbury Rules.

What personal problem? This was asked as a general questions.. no specifics.

TheGrimReaper 04-17-2002 06:17 PM

Ummm yes yes yes I see.

Darn this is hard! It would take a while, and many bashings of the culprit to accept their apology. Then I would never talk to them again.

marionette 04-17-2002 08:19 PM

i've had experience with this..and that person knows who i'm talking about. but, it depends on how much they mean to you, like other people said. but, it would have been nicer if he/she said sorry to your face..

Jin 04-17-2002 09:14 PM

I'd forgive the person if I were you Andromida. Think of it this way, if you forgive her she might stop spreading rumors and harassing, but if you don't she might be resentful and continue to do it. IMO, nothing good can come out of you not forgiving her.

Ginkasa 04-17-2002 10:22 PM

Eh, I'd just ignore them. Whether they were spreading more rumors or apologizing I'd just ignore them.



:unsure:

Angrist 04-18-2002 06:15 AM

That kinda happened to me. And now we're cool, I forgave them... although I don't really like them for what they're like.

So YES.

fingersman 04-18-2002 10:00 AM

There's an old saying...
If it person hurts you once it's their fault
If a person hurts you twice it's your fault.


What I'm trying to say is this.....if the person was your friend they wouldn't spread rumors and if the person was really sorry for they did you wouldn't get he says she says apology.

But it's totally up to you if you want to forgive ( if indeed he/she did ask for an apology), me I would forgive them but I would be careful what I say or do around them.
