Sometimes loving yourself means telling someone that has hurt you to kiss your @ss. I am all for forgiveness, but that is only when the person is sorry for what they have done. I was reading a thread about moving past hurtful comments and the OP was speaking about things family members had said. While different things work for different people sometimes standing up for yourself and telling someone that hurt you that they are a pathetic A-hole can go a long way for your self confidence and motivation. Obviously not for everyone but for me the anger and resentment is not resolved by turning the other cheek, being the bigger person or loving and forgiving myself. I find the solution in telling whoever it was exactly what I think of them, and how pissed I am and that they can go F themselves for being such critical D-heads. Even if it was twenty years ago, obviously it still bothers you. So if you are out there and reading this and you just can't get passed it and you've tried love and forgiveness. Think about giving this a try, you can be as hostile or as tender footed as you like. Just tell them that it bothered you and you are ashamed of them. Then see what happens..........if it's a positive result then forgive, if it isn't then F'em. Either way you might just have a boost of confidence, and you get it off your chest and that can go a long way for self love, forgiveness and motivation. Not for everybody but if it works for me it could work for someone else.
