I agree with what many have said here...forgiveness in the form of our "letting go" of someone who has wronged us increases our own freedom, but I personally don;t think we should ever "forgive" someone and leave the door open for them to come back and hurt us whenever and however they choose.
I keep thinking about the story of the frog and the scorpion, and how after he stings the frog he basically says "Hey, I'm a scorpion. I sting things."
Some people are like that and you can't let them sting you twice.
