When friends betray me.

I’m delighted to be a part of this contest organized by @ruthjoe titled “When friends betray me”. Betrayal isn’t a new thing to me in this world and no matter how good you think you are, some unfaithful people will betray you so get ready for that.

In your understanding tell us what you understand by the word betrayal?

In my little understanding, betrayal is an act of disloyalty. It can be seen as an act of violating a trust that someone has in you. For example, if your friend tells you something in secret or confidential and tells you not to tell anyone but you decided to tell other people, it means you have betrayed your friend. If you violate the trust someone has in you, you have betrayed such person.

Have you ever been betrayed by anyone? Tell us what happened.

Yes! That should not be surprising though. Betrayal is found almost everywhere these days. Then in my pretty institution days, I had a friend who wasn’t really from a well to do home. This doesn’t mean my family and I had it all but we were trying. So when we just resume back to school, I always bring more than enough foodstuffs mainly because that’s what my mother deals in. I gave her all I had, shared my foodstuffs and money with her and help her in every way I can but do you know what? She betrayed me.

She snitched up on me and set me with some guys so they can scam me. You know how tertiary institution peeps are? That’s it. Well, I didn’t fall for their scam and after a while, I discovered that she was the one who set me up but I’m glad I didn’t fall for it.

We know that betrayal may lead to heartbreak, tell us ways to heal from such betrayal?

I could have told you to use the social media, take some alcohol and have more fun but hate not it. Firstly, you have to know that you are all for yourself. People come and go so don’t feel down because someone has just betrayed you. That’s a determination and the best way to heal.

Also, heal by doing what you love to do most. If you get carried away with what you love most, you are likely to heal faster from the pain.

How do you deal with people who have broken your heart several times?

It’s not their fault. Is it? Once beaten twice shy. You can’t break my heart the first and second time then expect it to happen the third time. It’s not possible. If you have broken my heart several times, I see you as someone who means something less to me.

No matter how much I love you, once you start to hurt me and even get the nerve to break my heart several times, I won’t chase you but I’ll never take you important again. That’s my policy.

In conclusion, anyone who betrays is likely to get that from someone else. Karma is real and we should never ruin friendships for an unserious reason.

I will love to invite @vishwara @chilaw and @joan-na to participate in his contest with me.
