I have an adult friend who currently is staying away from her mother because of continual harsh treatment. Is this showing unforgiveness or something else?
It depends on what is in your friend’s heart. If she needs some time away to heal from the emotional wounds, she can still be working on forgiving her mother during this time. If, on the other hand, she is staying away to impose hurt on her mother, this could be motivated by revenge and not forgiveness. In other words, the answer to your question depends on your friend’s motivation for staying away.
