Just for the record, Jay
People often forgive, but that doesn't mean they want rounds 2 and 3 and etc.
In other words, I've forgiven many people in my life, but that doesn't mean I have to continue to let them be in my life, or be part of my life. There's a point where I choose to protect myself from those continued influences.
