You forgive people for your own sake as well as for theirs.  If you hang on to the anger and bitterness you might feel for someone who has wronged you, you are hurting yourself, and probably not hurting or affecting that other person at all.\n\nSo forgive because it is good for you.  Rise above needing the other person to feel remorse.  Forgive for yourself, for your own well being, and we will all be better for it.

I think we all do it.  The question is: how do we respond when someone does it to us?  If we respond in kind (get pissy or huffy or rude) it just fuels the fire.  If we could just understand the power of realizing that when we treat people who are nasty to us (for whatever reason) with a little kindness and compassion, they will usually show a whole different side of themselves.  We all seem to have hair trigger tempers these days and ugliness begets ugliness.

No I haven't tampered with another person's food. And I advise you not to either.\n\nConstant rudeness is a symptom of an unhappy person. When I have to deal with the same rude person continually I find one thing that I notice that they may like and either compliment them on it or purchase it for them (a piece of their favorite cake, etc.). Although, that individual may continue to be rude, it's amazing how a small gesture turns a person’s heart around. Some of the meanest people that I have encountered in my life have become some of the kindest people. It all has to do with constant kindness that you display towards them. And once they start sharing their life experiences with you, and they will, then you will understand why they were so rude.  \n\n\nBe blessed.

No. i would not forgive them. they are obviously not your good friend so you should not worry about what they think of you. you should find better people to talk to!

If I'm in the wrong, I definitely say sorry. a stupid thing like pride shouldn't get in the way of someone admitting they were wrong. People have fallen out for years over the person in the wrong refusing to say sorry. It's not worth it.

God bless you for trying, I will pass the kindness to each person I meet, but it is getting really hard. It is never too late to stop hating. Even though attitudes are tough to handle sometimes, I don't hate anybody, even when they hate me.

I am apologizing for all the nasty people that were rude to you. I do hate it when people get abusive on this format, I don't think that would be the case if they were face to face.

When someone does something unkind to you, we say they have "wronged" you.\n\nReligious people are taught to forgive and forget.\n\nIf you "Remember no wrongs" you have not only forgiven the wrong doer but you have forgotten the incident.

Out of extreme pride or sensitivity: either because they think they are "too good" to be treated that way or merely because they expect more from the people they love. However, once the other person admits his fault and truly regrets behaving that way there is really no point in not forgiving. As a very wise man has said "To err is human, to forgive, divine".

One can forgive, but they cannot always forget. It seems like it may is time to move on if you have attempted to address the issue to no avail. \nThere is someone better out there that will treat you as you deserve to be treated.

You are very right. a lot of us do waste or precious time. Some people even waste precious energy by being rude and mean.\n\nTwo thumbs and four paws up to you!!! :D

Everything is relative.  There may be different best-case scenarios for a variety of situations.  Although being rude or spiteful does not rank so high on the maturity ladder, I would not say that there would never be a time when this response would be the best thing for cheering up your friend, assuming that no one else would suffer any real long-term harm.

Rudeness is in the eye of the beholder.  I don't think everyone who is rude, intends to be rude.  It depends on how sensitive the affected is.
