14:33 Dr. Marty talks in great detail about why it can be so hard to forgive.
23:42 We talk about forgiveness from two perspectives. From the POV of the person who has done something wrong – the guilty person. And from the POV of the person who has been wronged – the hurt person.
27:10 We take a call from Kathy. She is struggling to find closure in a relationship, where her partner was more interested in using her for “show” with his family, than anything else. She wants to end the relationship completely, but he still wants to be friends.
33:20 Dr. Marty talks with Kathy about how closure is a process, and how continuing contact will make the closure process harder. Dr. Marty gives Kathy some suggestions on what to do on how to move forward with the closure process.
