At what point have you done enough to repair a relationship? đ¤
Iâm all for accountability. If youâve hurt someone, own it. Apologize. Do the work. Change the behavior.
But what happens when youâve genuinely done those things and the mistake keeps coming back into every disagreement?
Now, I understand that forgiveness doesnât happen on our timeline. Just because weâre ready to move forward doesnât mean the other person is.
But thereâs a difference between holding someone accountable and holding something over their head.
You can take responsibility for your actions, but you canât make someone forgive you.
So Iâm curious⌠when does accountability become punishment? đ
