The past is over, nothing you can do will change it. You have to keep going forward no matter the mistakes you made, learn from it and keep it from happening again. A lot of the time when people talk about God forgiving us they say He forgets all our sins. I disagree, I don't think God forgets anything, I think He doesn't hold sins against us anymore and He won't bring it up but that's different than forgetting. We should try to live that way, not counting the past against ourselves or other and giving everyone a clean slate. You do need to have healthy boundaries, when you trust someone and they betray you then don't open up to them again but also remember everyone makes mistakes. You do not need to open yourself up to the same pain that happened in the past and you should't. Healthy boundaries differ for each situation and you they are important when you forgive someone for a deep scar on your life. Reflect on the past and learn from what happened but don't let it control you. You can't change it but if you spend to much time dwelling on it then you will miss the future.
