In your opinion, when does something become unforgivable? (lemmy.world)

What does someone have to do that means no amount of remorse or effort to fix things will get you to forgive them? I don't mean forgive and forget to the point where they can hurt you again. If someone repeatedly steals from you, forgiveness doesn't mean putting them in a position where they can steal again.

I'm asking this purely out of curiosity. I'm just wondering what the attitude in my corner of the internet is.

That time my cousin and aunt made a scene the first night in the funeral home after my mom died. That's irreparable because

My mom died that fucking day, 2 years after my dad and they were supposed to all be close.
It was due to my personal life (my soon-to-be-wife). To add some context: she is a foreigner so there is a lot of racism and a bit of classism.
Her only living sister.
It's been 6 months and they haven't contacted me, apologized or anything,

Don't get me wrong. They are forgiven, but it hurts and it will hurt for the rest of my life so I don't be able to ever open the door for them to come back into my life.
