I like this a lot. I never thought of a lot of the points made here. This can pertain to a friend, a family member, even an adult child. In general, I agree with it, including the solution.
I just posted it FYI...it's interesting for those who have experienced it, especially in a child or other family member. You can put thoughts down if you feel like it, but I just sort of thought it was a good article to make available to both active posters are inactive readers. Let's face it...most of us are here...or ended up here...because of some major betrayal(s).
I posted one part of the betrayal article because I had never thought about it before, but it is SO TRUE. Then I posted the link. I hope you gain some insight
Betrayal is not always obvious either, sometimes the signs are there but we give people the benefit of the doubt or are in denial. At other times there are no signs and this type of betrayal can be all the more difficult to deal with.
Sometimes the worse betrayal comes from silence. People can betray you by cloaking you in a wall of silence, thinking that it’s better to not say anything than allow you to be aware of what is really going on. In the words of Martin Luther King; ’There comes a time when silence is betrayal’.
Whatever the course or the source of betrayal, it is important that you don’t think that it’s necessarily your fault, or is a result of something ’bad’ you did to a friend or a loved one to make them commit such an act.
Some things fester over the years and betrayal can have many motives.
Remember, you are not alone.
