Is it just me or I am tripping out?

He asked me for forgiveness. For all that he has done. I said yeah I do. I forgive you, but I won’t forget. All he replied, with was. “Uh ok cool.. later” . Wtf. Maybe I was expecting a different reply like a little softer. But now I’m like what the hell that’s kind of rude well in my book I think it is I don’t know if I’m tripping out or not. It sounded like he genuinely didn’t want or cared about forgiveness and he just wanted to hear “ I forgive you” just to feel good about himself. I don’t know maybe I am tripping.

I said it in the nicest way possible. Prior to that, we haven’t talked for a while, like maybe a couple years. I also said it nice hearing from you. He literally just said bye.

Well saying I forgive you but I won’t forget isn’t the kindest thing either. I agree with the sentiment but I would’ve kept that to myself if I were accepting an apology. Otherwise it sounds like you’re bitter and reluctant to forgive, just as you feel his apology was in-genuine as well. On top of that, guys aren’t emotional how we are, it wasn’t likely that he’d give you some soft, soppy apology that tugs at the heart strings unless he wanted something out of it, like to rekindle. I understand you’re disappointed but you honestly got more closure than a lot of people, some receive nothing.

That is true. That really is. I should’ve known. But it’s ok now. I know it’s ok now.

I’m glad he at least said something, not you can truly close that door and start healing, which to me is better than an apology. Nothing tops peace of mind.
