I forgive you. I should have removed myself from the situation earlier and not made it worse - I've realised now that when these things happen, leaving you for a bit helps us both to see the situation clearly and without emotional cloudiness.

I'm glad you feel like this now, and I'm happy for you and here for you. *hugs*

I'm very relieved you forgive me...more relieved than you know although I don't know if the other person will forgive me. He was pretty angry. I'm trying to forgive myself.

Don't worry about him - he purposely entered that conversation with the intention of winding you up and causing some drama. I know it because he told me what he was going to say. So don't let that discourage you - all is forgiven from me.

One more thing - don't feel condemned by all of this now. Feel yourself cleansed with the forgiveness of your friends and God. You are pure.

You read my mind..I will work hard on remembering that. Kind of hard right now because of the guilt but I know I am not a monster. I know God loves me and forgives me. I randomly turned to that 1 john chapter but God lead me to it.

Good. I was just making you aware of the fact that the enemy will try to get you down and fester your guilt into something worse.

[candygirlnj]

Oh, boy do I know that. So true. I'm ok now and will guard against the enemy. I got a bullet proof vest on man! I got my big ass gun here too. haha

You're such a good person for being so open and trying to make yourself better. I really admire that. :)
