Reply To: The purpose of mechila

I just want to restate my point, since I sense the responses are not focusing on it. Is mechila intended to clear conscience of the one who committed the wrong and is it effective even if the victim is mochel, as is required by halacha, even if he still feels the pain of the wrong? In other words, can the victim demand a mechila that makes him feel better or does he just have to live with what halacha requires?
