Humans were never designed to be perfect. For that reason, it may be inevitable that we may hurt somebody because they are different to us and we may be unaware of what could hurt them, and that is okay. Perhaps try to communicate with the person you had hurt?

You can forgive yourself for hurting someone in he past by learning from your mistakes and limit further taunting actions and if you don't feel this is forgiving apologizing to the person you had hurt is another approach as well.

To forgive yourself for hurting someone is a hard thing to do. Each time it is completely different because of the situation you may be in. There is no definite answer on how to forgive yourself however a great place to start is knowing that you have learnt from your mistake/hurting someone and realising that it is unhealthy to harbour these feelings towards yourself.

You have to realize that you are a human as well, and that you are not perfect and that mistakes are going to be made. You have to realIze that you made a mistake but it isn’t the end of the world and things will be okay.

Sometimes we make mistakes, all of us. It doesn't necessarily make us bad people, it makes us human. And the way we would eventually forgive someone for hurting us, we also deserve forgiveness, especially from ourselves.

Living in self guilt is the the biggest mistake made. Done a mistake, then ask for forgiveness to that person. Help them. Helping the one you hurt often helps you to forgive yourself.

I have hurt people I love through my actions. Before I could even think of forgiving myself, I had to figure out the reasons for what I did. Then I had to decide how I would change my behavior. Every day is one step at a time. I can't focus on regrets, because I can't go back in time. It's not the easiest thing in the world, because I still feel guilty, but I need to move forward and do better.

Sharing helps others and its therapeutic for you.
