What would you do???

[thehopefulcry2]

Hey there.

I have a friend who I dealt with for 13 YEARS that did some pretty bad things to be including but no limited too breaking my arm. I have now cut ties with her and have forgiven her for the most part. There are still some pretty bad things that God is working with me about that I have not forgiven her for, but that's all in time im sure.

My point being this,

Just because you forgive some one doesn't mean you need to leave yourself open to be used, disrespected, or hurt again. You don't need to continue in the relationship.

Good luck!

Continue to forgive.

Your best bet is to really sit down and talk with this girl about her actions. Is she a Christian?

Other than that, love on her, but make sure you're wearing your armor. Chances are, if she stabs you twice, she'll stab you again. If she's causing you to stress and stumble, you should back off.

tough place to be ,, i hear you..ive had ppl like that do things like that to me ,,i guess its how you as a person see things..ya know jesus had ppl do that to him too (as i understand it) like the time jesus met the boys on the opposite shore of the sea and a couple of ppl that was fed with the 5000 asked jesus how he came across ect ect, then jesus said hey man you guys arent here to hear aboutgod or being saved, you are here to eat the phisical food,, he called them on it so they knew that he knew there reason for being around..remember hon jesus didnt degrade them or condem them but he called them out so they could see it in the open with out defense,,thats what i do.and after i call ppl out they either change and are cool to me,or they leave me alonebut either way it is them that do the choosing,,you being the loving caring person i beleave you to be understands that we are to forgive if we are asked for forgivness( im sure we all forgive privately too even if we are not asked)but we do not have to be a door mat..is she a christian ? take another along as a wittness ,but confront her with tough love, jesus even confronted judas,,remember?to him i give the sop he will betray me,,her free will is at play here too so i would confront her,so she can see it as you do,then let the cards fall as they may,,give her the reason you wont let her on your my page,, a true friend will understand and if she chills out then embrace her as such,i have offended my friends before and had to earn there trust back,, and when they confronted me i had to see really what i was,,at first i was hacked off but after wards i could see my fault and tried to change it.. a true friend will do this if they really value your friendship,,but a user will just leave seeking another mark to use,,peter betrayed jesus but peter was truly sorry and came back to jesus valuing his love for jesus more than his pride,where as judas felt sorry for himself and committed suiside(as i see it)not willing to face the savior ,,i know you will figuar this out, my prayers are with you too,,arrow from god

Thank You ALL for your advice.... I did approve her to be my friend, but I can't help but be cautious... I will never trust her like I did at one time... I have confronted her, talked to her, prayed with her, and for her, but nothing has gotten through... I've just put it in GOD'S hands, and let him work it out... Once again THANKS!
