Make a Person Forget Something

Sometimes you get in a bad situation, or you're trying to prove someone wrong. Either way we all wish we could make someone forget something. How? Read the steps below...

Steps

  1. Find out what the main problem is. Did you drink the rest of your mom's soda? Did you accidentally inflict harm on a close friend, and have him take it the wrong way? Just remind yourself exactly what happened.
  2. Be nicer to the person if you want them to forget something. Ask the person out to lunch just to chat and have a good time, go shopping, do whatever that person likes. Don't overdo it though. Act like nothing happened.
  3. Allow time to play a role in the forgetfulness. A person can forget something over time because new things will come up to change their point of view. Create good things that will block up all of the bad feelings.
  4. Tell the person about YOUR life and feelings. You can come out and say that "I am sorry I did _______ to you, It will never happen again. Can we all just forget about it and move on?" Or you can just get more personal with the person. Going to dinner with the person but excluding him/her from your life won't help any more.
  5. Change the subject, should the topic come up again. If the person insists on talking about that try thinking of a fact that is really mind boggling. Like for instance if you accidentally shot him/her with a BB gun just say "Did you know that the Pentagon lost thousands of guns in Iraq? They lost control of them and now they could be used against us?!" And act amazed, the person will most likely insist on more information about that fact, and you'll be talking about the Iraq war instead of shooting him with a BB gun!

Tips

  • Have faith, don't just be all glum and hopeless.
  • When the subject is brought up, change it instantly.
  • The person could take advantage of you if you have a problem with guilt.
  • Try not to beg the person to forget and move on, act like you care and never meant to do whatever.
  • If you didn't make contact with the person for around two years, you can start off fresh.
  • If the person wasn't worth it then just forget about him.
  • Try to butter the person up and be all sweet to them.

Warnings

  • The person will be mad for a while if it was serious, only time will heal that.
  • Violence will not solve the problem.
  • Don't be taken advantage of, even if you feel guilty.
