💯 As I say in my book, not only is it a trauma fact that one can heal wo forgiving, but Jewish law doesn’t require the harmed party to forgive their harmdoer— ded if they don’t do EVERY step of repentance
& if the harm is trauma-level, as I read the sources, there’s no obligation, even if they do.
add a skeleton here at some point
