Answer:
I don't believe in "forgive and forget" I'm a "forgive but don't forget" kind of guy.
I'm a transgender guy who came out just a little over a year ago and I get misgendered and deadnamed by my family daily. My mom refuses to call me Thailer because she feels as though if I ever felt that I wasn't trans that I couldn't take it back. My father does it on purpose any chance he gets. My brothers do it on purpose when I anger them. And my sister is trying. At this point I'm getting used to being called the wrong name and pronouns all the time. So I just don't say anything and repress my emotions. That's the closest I can get.
<em>The </em><em>benefits</em><em> of "forgive and forget" </em>(<u>or forgiving sincerely and forgetting immediately</u>) are-
- Now you can avoid the psychological strain of possible trauma.
- You won't feel stressed or anxious around that person.
- You won't lose trust in them (if you had any to begin with)
- It's all in all just beneficial to your mental health.
