Might forgiving induce guilt feelings if I forgive someone and my family members think it is not time to forgive?

We have to remember that forgiveness is your choice.  If you are ready to do so, this is up to you.  Others need to see that your view and theirs may differ.  This difference should not make you feel guilty because you are doing something very noble in extending good will as well as good feelings, thoughts, and possibly even behaviors toward someone who acted badly.  Such a heroic effort need not cause guilt if you see it accurately.
