This is a personal question for which there are many answers. Many people can forgive bullies once they see them as hurting and miserable people doing the only thing they know to do. Part of the ability to forgive the bully depends on the ability to eliminate or come to terms with the consequences. It is hard to forgive someone who has caused you to lose some of your mental faculties, caused deep emotional scars, or caused you to become blind, deaf, or maimed. But even then, forgiveness is a choice, and it is possible if you have the gift of mercy.

Emotional scars can often be healed, and healing those can make forgiveness easier. But often there are complications and blockages. Common blocks include feeling guilty for doing nothing and feeling powerless, feeling guilty for sharing a similar nature with a bully - though inverted, or not coming to terms with things you did do which may have encouraged the bully or made you a mark in the first place. So often, if you cannot forgive, it is due to some sort of guilt, lack of a sense of responsibility, or lack of mercy towards yourself. If you can figure out what the memories trigger that existed before the bullying, you might be able to separate that from what the bully did and be better able to forgive them.

So many can and do forgive bullies, while many others don't.

Would God ever forgive the devil?

According to John 8: 44 the devil is considered to be a murderer and a liar and has brought death on the human race confirmed in Roman 5: 12. And yet Ezekiel 28: 11-19 shows that the Devil was an angel, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty, adorned with every precious stone, faultless, when he was created by God, until unrighteousness was found in him. So God has all the right to not forgive that kind of murderer, who was given all what was needed to be a successful angel. God's provision to wipe out all the harm that Satan the Devil has done, is in the gift that was given 2'000 years ago, when he sent His precious Son to redeem the human race from the curse of sin and death and to undo the damage caused by Satan. God's government called the kingdom of God that Jesus told us to pray for in Matthew 6: 9, 10 where God's will, will be done as in heaven also on earth. That Kingdom ( government ) will undo all the harm that millenniums of human rule, under the Devil's influence have done. 1 John 5: 19 confirms that the whole world is lying in the power of the Devil for the moment. So to answer your question, which is: Would God forgive the devil? Well ! the facts are, that there is no space for forgivness in such circumstances.

Can a person who has been verbally abusive in a relationship ever change in that same relationship and can the person that they have abused ever really forgive them?

Change in abusers is VERY VERY VERY rare, if ever. Forgiveness is a process. The abused must forgive THEMSELVES first & foremost. It's impossible to forgive someone who doesn't own, apologize and change permanently.
