If I forgive, might I become obsessed with what happened? After all, as I focus on this, I may become fixated on it.
No, actually, the science shows that as you truly forgive, you are able to give up the anger that you have had. It is the discontent and the anger that contribute to a “fixation” that can last for years. Forgiving melts away that resentment and allows you to be free inside of the negative feelings and attitudes. Thus, forgiving can reduce, not increase, what you are calling the fixation.
