do you hold a grudge?

[digimon7068]

i have a couple that i've held on to. . .but for the most part i'm to damn busy to hang on to something that's non-productive and/or detrimental. . .

I hold grudges longer than crack whores hold herpes.

I wake up every morning and look over my LIST OF PITIFUL PEOPLE WHO BEAR MY GRUDGE before my morning bowel movement. Then I pencil the newcomers to the list.

lol...sounds healthy. Do you keep this list beside of your sodoku book on the back of yer terlett?

A LOT of people on elite were very VERY mean to me for a very long time but most of those people and I mended fences a looooooooong time ago. Some people said some ungodly awful things to my e-face. I can't imagine what they must have said behind it. Regardless if they said they were sorry, then that was enough for me. Forgot about it and moved on. There are only one/two peeps who are still here (sorta) who never had the backbone to formally apologize to me. I don't hold a grudge against them (they aren't important enough). They just don't exist as far as I am concerned (and pretty much as the rest of the site is concerned too).

... works for me.

I don't hold anger, but I won't put my self in a position to be wronged more than once.

me too

for some reason, I am unable to hold a grudge in life. Now, you may think this is a positive trait but it isn't. It means that people tend to do things repeatedly and I keep forgiving so long as they say they are sorry. I seriously have to quit doing that!

How about you? Do you forgive and forget or do you have the memory of an elephant?

if I say yes are you going to bomb me?

I try not to let others influence my attitude. Usually it isn't worth ruining my day.

I never really hold a grudge. As a matter of fact I even asked my ex wife if she wanted to come work for my company. She now does.

Yes. I know. I really have a problem with it. I make excuses too much for other people, especially family. I have to grow a back bone in that regard.

I'll tell you how to learn to do it, because I had a problem with it, too, and wish I had this as an option when I was a young mother: WATCH Nanny 911 and SuperNanny! Religiously! I'm dead serious. Watch enough of those shows and you learn what you need to do to head off bad habits getting ingrained in kids and how important consistency and all that other shit is.

Look, children learn by example. Well those lessons carry through into your adulthood. How do we really learn to parent, other than by watching what our own parents did when we ourselves were kids? Well, if you grew up in a household that was in any way dysfunctional, you're just going to pass those lessons on to your kid. Despite all hopes otherwise, you WILL do everything your parents did under a stress situation unless you have prepared a backup plan on how to handle catastrophes.

I carry grudges the way most men carry wallets. I have about 5 or so that I will never let go of, and God help those unfortunate mother fuckers if they should ever cross my path again. These are the folks for whom merely knocking out a few teeth would not suffice. I'd want them within a hair's breadth of going into a body bag.

Bish, you better chill the fuck out or you'll have BP as high as mine.

There are drugs for that. And, really, it's not like I dwell on these things. Besides, 5 isn't that many.
