betrayal

I've been betrayed by someone who I thought was a friend. I'm not even sure which person it is. But I have an idea. It sucks because we were friends for so long and I trusted him. First I thought perhaps it was a lie or misunderstanding. But now I know it was a complete and total betrayal. He went behind my back and told someone something I wrote about them. The person he told was not my friend. He had no right to pass that information on. I got in trouble at work for it. My career, has come to a screetching halt.

Funny there are only two offenses that you can do that will cause me to never trust you again.

1. Mess with my kid. You hurt her or put her well being in jeopardy, I will never trust you again. My ex did that. Not physically but emotionally messed her up. He will never be forgiven.

2. Mess with my ability to take care of my child - financially specifically but in general anything thing. Messing with my career, even unintentionally = messing with my financial ability to take care of my child.

He is not forgiven. Maybe at some point in the future but even with forgiveness, there will be no trust ever again. I'm sure he didn't realize that one action would cause him to destroy our friendship, but it did. And, it's sad that it happened.
