"I forgive you, but I won't forget what you did, not in some threatening, I don't really forgive you kind of way, but just because what you did was shitty and really hurt me and I can't imagine it suddenly disappearing from my memory. In a way, it's even cooler that I'll remember that shitty thing you did to me, and you'll remember that shitty thing I did to you. That means we didn't need to forget that we hurt each other in order to love each other still. We figured out a way to forgive each other, for real, and still be friends. How beautiful, yes? Let's never forget that, either."
