I've forgotten about vs I've forgotten the painful

The two phrases are not directly comparable as they serve different purposes. 'I've forgotten about' is used to indicate that something has slipped from one's memory or attention, while 'I've forgotten the painful' seems incomplete and lacks clarity. It would be more appropriate to use 'I've forgotten the painful memories' or 'I've forgotten the painful experience' to convey the intended meaning.
