Re: What Themes Do You Wish Were More Often Explored In Fiction?

The rationale does seem to be 1) forgiveness is mandatory for being a good person so you must forgive, 2) forgiveness means acting like nothing ever happened and continuing to maintain the relationship you had with this person before, and 3) if you expect anything to change then you haven't really forgiven them and really you are the bad person here.

In reality, forgiveness is consistent with cutting someone out of your life and never speaking to them again, it is consistent with allowing someone to face legal, financial, social, or other consequences and not taking on any responsibility to fix the situation for them, and it is consistent with expecting people to apologize, make amends, and do the work necessary to improve.
