i just have a general question,
if you like someone, and they acted out of their character or hurt you in some verbal way-(nothing harsh/racially offensive), would you stop liking them or would your feelings persist?
this is stupid question but it's just i've noticed how some let go very easily once they are slightly doubtful and others strongly believe in forgiving, what's the norm?

I'm a pretty forgiving person, but I wasn't always that way. I used to get hurt easily and hold grudges forever. But somewhere along the line I realized that I'm just a lot happier when I let go of my hurt and anger and let things roll off my back. My attitude now is: people make mistakes. And many of the things that hurt me weren't really intended that way, it's just that I took them too personally. The funny thing is, now that I don't let things bother me so much, it seems that people are a lot "nicer" to me. Maybe it's just the way I see them... or maybe it's because they know there's no point trying to upset me, because it won't work!
