You don’t have to forgive everything. If someone killed your family member theres no obligation to forgive them. If someone sexually abused you, theres no obligation to forgive them. If someone ruined your reputation, there’s no obligation to forgive them….
True forgiveness I think is wiping the slate clean as though the thing never happened and going back to being best friends or whatever the relationship was. However depending on the thing that was done, it is sometime best to cut off ties with the person and not try to get close again if it was a very serious offense and you suspect that the person may do something similar again.
