When People Betray You
Take some time to think about just how you are feeling about the situation. You were the one betrayed, you deserve this time to examine the situation. Take all the time you need to reflect on the betrayal.
- Communicate that you feel betrayed. Be honest. Be brutal. What they do with your truth will determine everything that comes next.
Communication is key to getting through any situation. Make your voice heard and make sure that they understand exactly how you are feeling. Be honest in your communication and let them know your truth.
- Make some time for yourself away from the person. This will give you time to formulate your next move.
Take some time and just be with yourself for awhile. Betrayal can hit really hard and you deserve some time to yourself so you can get a handle on the situation.
- Accept the fact that the person can no longer be 100% trusted and you may need to reevaluate them still being in your life.
Sometimes the relationship cannot be salvaged. Betrayal can easily cut deep enough to sever a relationship and depending on the situation your best move might just be to accept this fact. Some people will just have to be removed from your life so you can effectively heal from the hurt.
- Move on from the betrayal. Leave it behind you. It's time to initiate healing.
It doesn't matter whether you keep them in your life or not, the time to move on will come either way. The best thing you could ever do for yourself in situations of betrayal is move on, holding onto past betrayal will definitely keep you from future happiness.
In conclusion, Betrayal sucks, but what comes after it doesn't have to as well.
