As a person, I like to see the best in people. I want to be able to trust everyone, but unfortunately, that trust is sometimes betrayed even when you least expect it. For example, there was once someone who had I had been great friends with for a very long time. I had always believed that they were loyal and a good person, until someone began to be mean to me, and they did not stand up for me at all. In fact, that person even became friends with the mean one, leaving me feeling like our friendship had meant nothing and that they had completely betrayed all trust I ever had in them. I have been a victim of betrayal, and it really comes out of nowhere, even from people you think would never do that to you. It definitely hurts, but the way I look at it, it shows you who your real friends are.
Wow that's deep. I like that you end on a positive note. You turned something negative into something positive and at times, especially when you are mad or upset that can be very difficult to do.
I have been a victim of betrayal. It was a long time ago and it was quite stupid really. When I was 7 and my sister was 5, my mum had baked some cookies and told us not to eat them the same day. Later that day my sister and I made a deal to each take a few cookies and not rat each other out. We both took our share of cookies and we didn't make it noticeable either. A few hours passed and my mum hadn't noticed. Thing were going good until a few minutes before our guests arrived when my mum called me down and said she wanted to talk. I knew I ad been caught, she told me that my sister told her and that she was off the hook for being honest. To this day I still don't like to trust my sister with anything.
I know how you feel, I have three brothers who rad me out for the stupidest things and get me grounded but I get to do the same thing so in the end we're all even.
Honestly, I've never really been betrayed to the point that it ruined a friendship or a relationship but I've been betrayed many times by my brothers. It might sound bad but we get over it the next day and we try not to get each other in trouble. But my little brother doesn't understand the point of sticking together and not telling on each other all the time. So, one night, he was gone to his hockey practice and the rest of my brothers were home alone with me and we decided to go to the depanneur to get a ton of junk food. Later that night when they all came home, we told my little brother what we did thinking he would understand and not go radding us out, but he did exactly that. Because of him, he got grounded for a week! In the end, we realized that the only reason why he told on us is because we didn't buy anything for him...
I know the feeling. Little brothers can so easily mess everything up for you its insane. People like little brothers should not be given so much power!!! Yes.. my brother is exactly the same.
Unfortunately, I think that everyone has been or will be betrayed in their life. The time that I was betrayed that hurt the most was when one of my close friends spread a rumour about me. Now, this did happened in grade 6 when everything was so exaggerated but it hurt none the less. Toward the end of grade 6 my friend decided to spread a rumour about me to some of our classmates, and although I caught her early on so it did not get the chance to spread, I felt really betrayed. Of course I was upset about what she said but I was more saddened by the fact that she would actually do it. She was definitely not the person that I thought she was. These types of situations are definitely upsetting I think that they teach us an important message; who our real friends are and we can't underestimate this because those are the people that will be there for you the rest of your life.
I can really relate to your betrayal story. It's unfortunate you've had to go though this as well. But it's important to know that that like you, I also believe that these kind of hurtful situations can have positive outcomes, teaching you lessons you will learn and use for the rest of your life
I have been betrayed many times mostly by my grade six friends. At one point we were a big group of maybe 10 people including me and the last moments I remember about them is all fighting. It actually is sad when I think about it because my friends and I were so close, particularly this one guy I was best friends with his name was Luca. We would literally do everything together, and then one day it all went south…we had a big fight and we haven’t talked since. It has gotten so bad that some of them live in my area and when I see them outside and we cross paths I would start to say hi but I realise when they walk a little closer they wouldn’t even look at you. That actually did hurt and sting and still does. I did find Luca’s email on my computer, so I sent him a small email but, as I thought no answer. That was and probably will be the last time I try to communicate with any of them anymore. It was nice knowing them while it lasted.
I have been betrayed in the past, in a very cruel way! I was doing a school project; the teacher told us that we had to be in groups of two. I decided to go with the person beside me. We had two weeks to do the assignment. A week passed and all we did was come up with an idea. I kept asking him to stay after school or get together to do the project. He always came up with an excuse. I decided to go ahead and do the project figuring we would eventually get together. He ended up leaving my group and stealing the idea I came up with, but the worst part was that I did not find that out until the day of the presentations. He went before me and when I went up, my teacher thought that I stole his idea!
I’m pretty sure everyone has been betrayed at least once in his or her life. One time I have been betrayed was in elementary school. My friend and I wanted to be partners for some activity in gym class and we promised to be together. In the end I was absent and missed one class so when I came back it turned out she went with someone else and I was stuck with someone I didn’t even like. But I’m also guilty of betraying someone. I promised my sister I would take the city bus and meet up with her at Fairview recently. She was already there by the time our school ended but I had forgotten my money at home. So I planned on taking the school bus home and then the city bus to meet her. But when I got to my house I had forgotten my key so she had to come all the way home and unlock the door for me and we ended up not going. I felt like I let her down and betrayed her. Instead of just going to Fairview with no money I chose the wrong thing to do and made her come home to unlock the door for me.
I have also been in a situation like that were I was stuck with a partner I did not like because I was absent. It was awful! I like how you brought up the point that someone has been betrayed at least on point in their life. I can relate to that because as far as I know its very true. I know I have been betrayed same as anyone. I think that you are bound to get betrayed at least once.
I have never really been betrayed to the point of ending a friendship. And I have never betrayed anyone else seriously. I have a hard time with this blog and I think that it will be the most challenging for me. Typically my friends and I get along great and we never fight, so I guess that the only person who has really betrayed me is my sister. Its never something huge just little acts of betrayal and I am never truly upset. One night I was reading really late past my bed time and my sister was on her iPod, so she saw me. In the morning my mom somehow found out my sisters was up past her bedtime and my sister immediately said, “But Jaime was up to!” Gee thanks a lot! Anyway her going down and taking me with her was super annoying. I think my sister thought that if I got in trouble as well she would be in less of a mess but that was not the case. Lucky me my mom thought that this was a desperate attempt to get out of trouble and she dismissed my sister’s accusation. Unfortunately for me she caught me the next night up reading.
I've been betrayed by my 12 year old sister. Every day after school we are allowed to have 2 cookies and we have all sorts of cookies but that day we only had one Oreo cookie and a lot of fudgeo cookies. I really don't like fudgeo cookies my favorite cookies are the Oreo kind. My sister likes all cookies and the day before I called dibs on that last Oreo cookie for after school and my sister said that's fine I will just have the fudgeos and that day we walked to home from school at separate times she came home first. When I came home I went in the pantry to get the Oreo box it was still there. I took the box and i went to sit on the couch and when I opened the box guess what there was a fudgeo cookie in there!! My sister had tricked me! She was waiting on the couch for me because she wanted to see my reactions. I saw hers she almost peed in her pants because she laughing so much. I was really angry i dint get any cookies that day or the rest of the week because my dad did not have time to go buy some more. rest of the week because my dad did not have time to go buy some more.
I have been betrayed a couple of times in my life. Some by friends and others by my brother... But the ones that I will always remember are the ones with my brother. One of the most memorable ones though is when we were getting my dad a birthday present. My mom had told us the whole deal already and our job was to not tell my dad. His gift was to go to Victoria Island (because I lived in Vancouver at the time). We were going to pack his luggage for him and then go pick him up from work and surprise him by taking the ferry there! So the day before it was going to go down, we were sitting around the dinner table and somehow the subject of my dad’s birthday came up... He started asking us what we were getting him and my mom and I looked at each other and didn’t say a word. But my brother being himself, said: “I don’t know but were not taking a boat!” So obviously that gave the whole thing away... Now we never trust him with secrets anymore.
I can completely relate to you! I can never tell my younger sister anything because she just ends up spoiling everything for everyone! Especially anything that has to do with surprises!
I don't really think someone has really betrayed me in a way that it affected my life. I have had a lot of arguments and fights but none of them really serious. When I get upset I usually take myself away from the situation, so I talk about it later when I'm calm and can prove that I'm right. But my sister always seems to do something to get me in trouble. I guess that is like betraying me, her own sister! I remember in elementary school we would have to read one book every week in french (of course they were small books but I still HATED reading in french) and we also had to fill in a reading log and get our parents to sign it. I never actually read these books. I chose a small book that looked about the right size brought it home wrote down the title and got my sister to sign it. She used to always hold it against me when she wanted something, and I repaid her in candy I got with my huge allowance of 5$ a week. I guess blackmail is a sort of betrayal, even if it was for a dumb reason.
I have been the victim of betrayal many times and I have betrayed a few people too. My friends and siblings have betrayed me before many times. One of the times was when my teacher told our class we were going to do a big project in a few weeks. I wanted to be with one of my friends because I knew we would get at least 90% and she was fun to work with. I asked her if we could be partners and she said sure. Then a few weeks later our teacher said we were going to start the project and to get with our partners. I went to go beside my partner and asked her what we should do for our project. She turned to me and was like; we’re not partners I'm with this person. She was with her best friend who was sick the day I had asked her to be my partner. That day I felt really betrayed by her. Also, I have betrayed my siblings a lot. Once, my brother ate some of my little sister's Halloween candy and I caught him. I told him I wouldn't tell but I ended up using it against him when I was mad at him. I do use things against people when I'm mad so yes I betray people!
I have been a victim of betrayal several times, and last year was the one time it actually got to me. I had a best friend, or so I thought.. We always hung out together and told each other everything. She wrote me letters saying how much she appreciated our friendship, and that she would never do anything to hurt me and ruin our friendship. Just a bunch of words written on a piece of paper, or as I like to call them, lies. One day, my 'best friend' started ignoring me for no reason. I asked her many times what was wrong, and she could never give me a clear response. I tried to save our friendship, but all she would do is ignore my presence.
The only time I can remember being betrayed is in elementary school. Mostly everyone in elementary school tell each other that they’re going to be best friends forever and they will still hang out even though they go to a different high school, and I believed that. So at the end of grade 6, everyone was sad because we will not see some people anymore. My friend from a different school was talking to someone in my grade and she sent me a picture of a conversation with her and “my friends” of them saying that they do not like me, and they just acted like being my friend and they basically don’t like me. Obviously I was really sad and so I decided to confront them but they denied everything so nothing was really resolved. To this day, I’m still mad and sad because of what they said but I’ve decided to forgive them but I will still never forget what they did to me and I don’t think a true friendship will happen because of what they did.
I also went through something with whom I thought was my best friend, so I understand how that felt. I can relate to your story on betrayal and I guess changing to different schools can really make a difference in a friendship.
One time that I was betrayed was in grade 6. This story had to do with my friend. We had been friends since we were in kindergarten and we both thought we would be best friends forever. This friend started hanging out with other kids that I was not friends with and I would therefore go and hang out with other kids. When we got to high school, we told each other that we would remain friends and have plans in the summer. I would contact her in the summer to ask for plans, like we promised we would, but they always said they were busy. The person would then say “Next week for sure”, but this kept happening and eventually summer ended. I still see this person from time to time but we never have plans or have the type of conversations that you would typically have with someone that you have known your whole life. We obviously drifted apart and we barely ever talk anymore, but I guess going through these experiences make you realize that your real friends are the ones that stick around.
I have been a victim of betrayal quite a few times in my life but one remarquable time was a few years ago and I was betrayed by my younger sister. She is always telling everything that she hears to my mom, wether it has nothing to do with her or not. One day, I remember going to her and telling her a big secret and the next day what does she do? She goes and tells my mom! The next day, my mom comes to me asking me about that secret so I am very confused because I had only told my sister. Obviously, I got very upset with my sister, the one I thought I could trust, and to this day I haven't told her a secret again. Ever since then, she gets upset with me because she tells me certain things but I won't tell her anything.
All my friends are very loyal and respective of me and because I do that I return the favor. As a person I like to have a very good moral compass so I try very hard to not betray anyone. I also pick my friends very carefully so I don’t get betrayed a lot by them. I think that a big reason why I haven’t been betrayed is because I’m not art of anything that anyone can betray me with. -Peter Demers
There are many times where I was betrayed, be it by a friend or a class mate, although I have never been betrayed by my family which is good. One of the most memorable times that I have been betrayed was in elementary school, I was friends with everyone so I was not limited to one certain group. I was hanging out with one group more than the other and I guess the second group did not like that, so the main girl from that group told everyone in school one of my secrets and for a whole week everyone was talking about it which bothered me very much. On top of that, after she did that, she still wanted to be friends! One time that I have betrayed someone is that I was talking behind said girls back with one of my friends, and it was not just me who was doing it, she was also, but in the end she told the girl that we had been talking about all the things we said about and she told the teacher who got me in trouble. I learned my lesson after that, pick the right person to talk behind others backs, or else you get burned. -Katie Scarlat
The one time that I was betrayed was in sailing camp. I had been training with a friend for weeks for a regatta. We were really good together and we were definitely one of the best crews in the sailing team. We had always got along on the boat and we never got mad at each other. One week before the regatta, he talked to our coach to try and switch the crews around so that he can be with someone else. He got switched with one of the best athletes on our team. But I got put with the new kid who, no to be mean, was not the best at racing. He was a nice guy but he was boring to sail with and we did terribly together because I barely knew him. Although I was not so sad because I did beat my old friend by one point in the overall scores.
I honestly can’t remember the last time I betrayed someone or the last time someone betrayed me. I find that betrayal is a very strong word. When someone tells me that they have been betrayed I think less of minor stuff and more of the really damaging stuff, like something that ruins your friendship with that person. My sister and I really don’t fight at all and we always have each other’s backs, same thing with my friends. One time I was in Elementary School in grade 3 or 4 when my teacher said pairs of 2 people, my friend chose somebody else over me. We had discussed ahead that we were going to do the project together and we already had really good ideas for it. When my teacher went around and asked who my partner was with, he said somebody else. He also took the ideas that we came up with; he claimed they were his ideas anyways. So I haven’t really been betrayed in a long time but when I was in grade 3, it bothered me forever why he did that.
I have been a victim of betrayal. I remember being betrayed a few years ago by one of my best friends or so I thought. I found out that this person was PRETENDING to be my friend just because she didn't like the way that I acted. This person didn't have the guts to tell me, so instead of talking to me about it, she just stopped talking to me. After about two weeks of that, she told me and I felt hurt and betrayed for wasting time on someone like her! After that she also tried to turn two of my other best friends against me because of my attitude towards her after our friendship had ended.
One time when I was about 7 I was betrayed by my older sister. We were about to leave to go to Orlando, Florida, and she promised me that she would sit with me on the plane. She also promised me that she'd be my buddy for all the rides at Disney because she was mad at my other sister. But once we got on the plane,she forgave my other sister and then proceeded to sit with her instead of me. Then to top it off she wouldn't even sit next to me on any of the rides either.
I was betrayed by one of my best friends last year (but she still is because I'm pretty easy going haha). I told her one of my biggest secrets that I haven't told anyone (not even my parents), and it took me a while to tell someone or find someone I could trust. Next thing I know, the next day at swimming, one of my other good friends approaches me and makes a vague comment that had to do with my secret and I knew she was told. I didn't confront my friend because I didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable. But it still bothers me that she had the nerve to tell someone something I even had trouble admitting. And now its going around my swimming group so that's great! ;)
I remember this one time i was betrayed by my three bestfriends in grade six and i was so hurt by it that i didnt speak to them for two whole weeks. There was a anual graduation dance for all the grade sixers and we were all very excited for it. We decided we were all going to dress up like spongebob characters (i was supposed to be patrick). We all made our costumes together and it took a really long time. We all knew we were going to look incredibly stupid but we didn't care since we were all doing it together. So finally the day of the dance came and i was so excited. During lunchtime they came up to me and told me they did not want to dress up as spongebob characters anymore and had decided to dress up as police officers (little did i know they had all both police officer costumes together, without me). So right when i got home from school i called my parents and told them we had to go get a police officer costume right away. They were angry since i had just finished making a patrick costume and didn't want to buy me another costume. I got very angry at them and ended going to the dance in a pirate costume from the previous year. Unfortunately going into grade six i had a huge growth spurt and it didn't fit me properly. I ended up looking even more foolish than I had planned and felt betrayed by my bestfriends. I ended up forgiving them but to this day i still don't plan my halloween costumes with friends. -kali catterall
One time I had to buy my lunch in the cafeteria. I friend had to buy some things too so we both just put our money together and decided it was easier to pay together and it would go faster. We had a lot of stuff because there was too of us. When we walked away my friend told me she was mad because the people in front of us got a tray and we had more stuff. She insisted that they had beTRAYed us.
I've been in a situation before where I felt betrayed by my friends once in elementary school but recently I've felt betrayed by one of my friends once again. We were not close but still hung out in school. After finding out the rude things she said about my friends and myself I was confused. Why did she feel this way? Why did she have to express her negative feelings towards one of my best friends who was sure enough going to tell me and the others what was rudely said. It was a bad move, we were all very angry at the fact that we didn't do anything wrong to her and she decides to do this to us when most of us barely know her. I felt betrayed by someone i never got a chance to get to know. She hurt my feelings and especially the feelings of my best friends.
Sadly, everyone get betrayed at least once in their life time. On that sticks out to me is when I was 8. I was obsessed with webkinz and I owned about 7 of them with a huge mansion and a bunch of collective items. I gave my password to my friend because she said she could earn me more points. The next day I woke up to an empty house on my webkinz account. I checked my mailbox, and all my stuff had been sent to her account. I was so upset that I call webkinz and explained the whole situation. They gave me 10,000$ webkinz dollars. I never gave my password to anyone again!
This is a really unfortunate story. I feel so sorry for you! A similar thing happened to me but on moshie monsters. My friend did not send all my stuff to herself but she sent all of our stuff to other random monsters. We shared an account so she decided to express her anger to me by giving away our baby monster blueberry and all our stuff. I felt really betrayed as well. By: Meghan McCarthy
Yes I have been betrayed before and definitely more than once. The people I usually get betrayed by are friends. Girls are not always the nicest people and they love drama so I think that everyone has been betrayed at least once in their lives. The time that I was last betrayed was when I got into a fight with one of my friends because she was saying mean things about me to my other friends. I told my best friend at the time and she said that she felt so bad for me and that it was awful what she had said yet she had no problem still hanging out with this particular girl. I understand that just because I’m mad at girl it doesn’t mean that my friend should be mad at her too. I did not like it but I tried not to let it bother me. A few days later my best friend continued to tell me what the girl was saying about me so then it occurred to me to ask my best friend what she would say to the girl when she would say these things about me and her answer was nothing. So yes the girl who was talking bad about me was not nice and I did think she was my friend but the girl who really betrayed me in the end was my best friend who just listened to the girl and said nothing at all. I was so confused because I know that if it was me that I would have stood up for her but then again everybody’s different. So yes the girl who was talking about me was mean but in the end this blog is not about her it s about my old best friend. Sorry for it being late it is because I did the other one for Wednesday!

I understand the feeling, I think everyone at one point or another has been somewhat betrayed by a classmate.

Its never something huge just little acts of betrayal and I am never truly upset. One night I was reading really late past my bed time and my sister was on her iPod, so she saw me. In the morning my mom somehow found out my sisters was up past her bedtime and my sister immediately said, “But Jaime was up to!” Gee thanks a lot! Anyway her going down and taking me with her was super annoying. I think my sister thought that if I got in trouble as well she would be in less of a mess but that was not the case. Lucky me my mom thought that this was a desperate attempt to get out of trouble and she dismissed my sister’s accusation. Unfortunately for me she caught me the next night up reading.
ReplyDeleteI hate it when my sister or brother bring me down with them
DeleteI've been betrayed by my 12 year old sister. Every day after school we are allowed to have 2 cookies and we have all sorts of cookies but that day we only had one Oreo cookie and a lot of fudgeo cookies. I really don't like fudgeo cookies my favorite cookies are the Oreo kind. My sister likes all cookies and the day before I called dibs on that last Oreo cookie for after school and my sister said that's fine I will just have the fudgeos and that day we walked to home from school at separate times she came home first. When I came home I went in the pantry to get the Oreo box it was still there. I took the box and i went to sit on the couch and when I opened the box guess what there was a fudgeo cookie in there!! My sister had tricked me! She was waiting on the couch for me because she wanted to see my reactions. I saw hers she almost peed in her pants because she laughing so much. I was really angry i dint get any cookies that day or the rest of the week because my dad did not have time to go buy some more. rest of the week because my dad did not have time to go buy some more.
ReplyDeleteI love how you and your sister fight over cookies! But i totally understand how you feel, Oreos are worth fighting for!
DeleteI have been betrayed a couple of times in my life. Some by friends and others by my brother... But the ones that I will always remember are the ones with my brother. One of the most memorable ones though is when we were getting my dad a birthday present. My mom had told us the whole deal already and our job was to not tell my dad. His gift was to go to Victoria Island (because I lived in Vancouver at the time). We were going to pack his luggage for him and then go pick him up from work and surprise him by taking the ferry there! So the day before it was going to go down, we were sitting around the dinner table and somehow the subject of my dad’s birthday came up... He started asking us what we were getting him and my mom and I looked at each other and didn’t say a word. But my brother being himself, said: “I don’t know but were not taking a boat!” So obviously that gave the whole thing away... Now we never trust him with secrets anymore.
ReplyDeleteI can completely relate to you! I can never tell my younger sister anything because she just ends up spoiling everything for everyone! Especially anything that has to do with surprises!
DeleteI don't really think someone has really betrayed me in a way that it affected my life. I have had a lot of arguments and fights but none of them really serious. When I get upset I usually take myself away from the situation, so I talk about it later when I'm calm and can prove that I'm right. But my sister always seems to do something to get me in trouble. I guess that is like betraying me, her own sister! I remember in elementary school we would have to read one book every week in french (of course they were small books but I still HATED reading in french) and we also had to fill in a reading log and get our parents to sign it. I never actually read these books. I chose a small book that looked about the right size brought it home wrote down the title and got my sister to sign it. She used to always hold it against me when she wanted something, and I repaid her in candy I got with my huge allowance of 5$ a week. I guess blackmail is a sort of betrayal, even if it was for a dumb reason.
ReplyDeleteBoth my sisters always find a way to get me in some sort of trouble so I know how you feel.
DeleteI have been the victim of betrayal many times and I have betrayed a few people too. My friends and siblings have betrayed me before many times. One of the times was when my teacher told our class we were going to do a big project in a few weeks. I wanted to be with one of my friends because I knew we would get at least 90% and she was fun to work with. I asked her if we could be partners and she said sure. Then a few weeks later our teacher said we were going to start the project and to get with our partners. I went to go beside my partner and asked her what we should do for our project. She turned to me and was like; we’re not partners I'm with this person. She was with her best friend who was sick the day I had asked her to be my partner. That day I felt really betrayed by her. Also, I have betrayed my siblings a lot. Once, my brother ate some of my little sister's Halloween candy and I caught him. I told him I wouldn't tell but I ended up using it against him when I was mad at him. I do use things against people when I'm mad so yes I betray people!
ReplyDeleteI have been a victim of betrayal several times, and last year was the one time it actually got to me. I had a best friend, or so I thought.. We always hung out together and told each other everything. She wrote me letters saying how much she appreciated our friendship, and that she would never do anything to hurt me and ruin our friendship. Just a bunch of words written on a piece of paper, or as I like to call them, lies. One day, my 'best friend' started ignoring me for no reason. I asked her many times what was wrong, and she could never give me a clear response. I tried to save our friendship, but all she would do is ignore my presence.
ReplyDeleteThe only time I can remember being betrayed is in elementary school. Mostly everyone in elementary school tell each other that they’re going to be best friends forever and they will still hang out even though they go to a different high school, and I believed that. So at the end of grade 6, everyone was sad because we will not see some people anymore. My friend from a different school was talking to someone in my grade and she sent me a picture of a conversation with her and “my friends” of them saying that they do not like me, and they just acted like being my friend and they basically don’t like me. Obviously I was really sad and so I decided to confront them but they denied everything so nothing was really resolved. To this day, I’m still mad and sad because of what they said but I’ve decided to forgive them but I will still never forget what they did to me and I don’t think a true friendship will happen because of what they did.
ReplyDeleteI also went through something with whom I thought was my best friend, so I understand how that felt. I can relate to your story on betrayal and I guess changing to different schools can really make a difference in a friendship.
DeleteOne time that I was betrayed was in grade 6. This story had to do with my friend. We had been friends since we were in kindergarten and we both thought we would be best friends forever. This friend started hanging out with other kids that I was not friends with and I would therefore go and hang out with other kids. When we got to high school, we told each other that we would remain friends and have plans in the summer. I would contact her in the summer to ask for plans, like we promised we would, but they always said they were busy. The person would then say “Next week for sure”, but this kept happening and eventually summer ended. I still see this person from time to time but we never have plans or have the type of conversations that you would typically have with someone that you have known your whole life. We obviously drifted apart and we barely ever talk anymore, but I guess going through these experiences make you realize that your real friends are the ones that stick around.
ReplyDeleteI have been a victim of betrayal quite a few times in my life but one remarquable time was a few years ago and I was betrayed by my younger sister. She is always telling everything that she hears to my mom, wether it has nothing to do with her or not. One day, I remember going to her and telling her a big secret and the next day what does she do? She goes and tells my mom! The next day, my mom comes to me asking me about that secret so I am very confused because I had only told my sister. Obviously, I got very upset with my sister, the one I thought I could trust, and to this day I haven't told her a secret again. Ever since then, she gets upset with me because she tells me certain things but I won't tell her anything.
ReplyDeleteUggh I always have problems with my sister too. It gets so annoying! I never know if I can trust her or not
DeleteAll my friends are very loyal and respective of me and because I do that I return the favor. As a person I like to have a very good moral compass so I try very hard to not betray anyone. I also pick my friends very carefully so I don’t get betrayed a lot by them. I think that a big reason why I haven’t been betrayed is because I’m not art of anything that anyone can betray me with.

That's nice:) I'm sure a lot of people wish they could say the same!
DeleteThere are many times where I was betrayed, be it by a friend or a class mate, although I have never been betrayed by my family which is good. One of the most memorable times that I have been betrayed was in elementary school, I was friends with everyone so I was not limited to one certain group. I was hanging out with one group more than the other and I guess the second group did not like that, so the main girl from that group told everyone in school one of my secrets and for a whole week everyone was talking about it which bothered me very much. On top of that, after she did that, she still wanted to be friends! One time that I have betrayed someone is that I was talking behind said girls back with one of my friends, and it was not just me who was doing it, she was also, but in the end she told the girl that we had been talking about all the things we said about and she told the teacher who got me in trouble. I learned my lesson after that, pick the right person to talk behind others backs, or else you get burned.

The one time that I was betrayed was in sailing camp. I had been training with a friend for weeks for a regatta. We were really good together and we were definitely one of the best crews in the sailing team. We had always got along on the boat and we never got mad at each other. One week before the regatta, he talked to our coach to try and switch the crews around so that he can be with someone else. He got switched with one of the best athletes on our team. But I got put with the new kid who, no to be mean, was not the best at racing. He was a nice guy but he was boring to sail with and we did terribly together because I barely knew him. Although I was not so sad because I did beat my old friend by one point in the overall scores.
ReplyDeleteI honestly can’t remember the last time I betrayed someone or the last time someone betrayed me. I find that betrayal is a very strong word. When someone tells me that they have been betrayed I think less of minor stuff and more of the really damaging stuff, like something that ruins your friendship with that person. My sister and I really don’t fight at all and we always have each other’s backs, same thing with my friends. One time I was in Elementary School in grade 3 or 4 when my teacher said pairs of 2 people, my friend chose somebody else over me. We had discussed ahead that we were going to do the project together and we already had really good ideas for it. When my teacher went around and asked who my partner was with, he said somebody else. He also took the ideas that we came up with; he claimed they were his ideas anyways. So I haven’t really been betrayed in a long time but when I was in grade 3, it bothered me forever why he did that.
ReplyDeleteI have been a victim of betrayal. I remember being betrayed a few years ago by one of my best friends or so I thought. I found out that this person was PRETENDING to be my friend just because she didn't like the way that I acted. This person didn't have the guts to tell me, so instead of talking to me about it, she just stopped talking to me. After about two weeks of that, she told me and I felt hurt and betrayed for wasting time on someone like her! After that she also tried to turn two of my other best friends against me because of my attitude towards her after our friendship had ended.
ReplyDeleteOne time when I was about 7 I was betrayed by my older sister. We were about to leave to go to Orlando, Florida, and she promised me that she would sit with me on the plane. She also promised me that she'd be my buddy for all the rides at Disney because she was mad at my other sister. But once we got on the plane,she forgave my other sister and then proceeded to sit with her instead of me. Then to top it off she wouldn't even sit next to me on any of the rides either.
ReplyDeleteI was betrayed by one of my best friends last year (but she still is because I'm pretty easy going haha). I told her one of my biggest secrets that I haven't told anyone (not even my parents), and it took me a while to tell someone or find someone I could trust. Next thing I know, the next day at swimming, one of my other good friends approaches me and makes a vague comment that had to do with my secret and I knew she was told. I didn't confront my friend because I didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable. But it still bothers me that she had the nerve to tell someone something I even had trouble admitting. And now its going around my swimming group so that's great! ;)

ReplyDeleteI remember this one time i was betrayed by my three bestfriends in grade six and i was so hurt by it that i didnt speak to them for two whole weeks. There was a anual graduation dance for all the grade sixers and we were all very excited for it. We decided we were all going to dress up like spongebob characters (i was supposed to be patrick). We all made our costumes together and it took a really long time. We all knew we were going to look incredibly stupid but we didn't care since we were all doing it together. So finally the day of the dance came and i was so excited. During lunchtime they came up to me and told me they did not want to dress up as spongebob characters anymore and had decided to dress up as police officers (little did i know they had all both police officer costumes together, without me). So right when i got home from school i called my parents and told them we had to go get a police officer costume right away. They were angry since i had just finished making a patrick costume and didn't want to buy me another costume. I got very angry at them and ended going to the dance in a pirate costume from the previous year. Unfortunately going into grade six i had a huge growth spurt and it didn't fit me properly. I ended up looking even more foolish than I had planned and felt betrayed by my bestfriends. I ended up forgiving them but to this day i still don't plan my halloween costumes with friends. -kali catterall
ReplyDeleteOne time I had to buy my lunch in the cafeteria. I friend had to buy some things too so we both just put our money together and decided it was easier to pay together and it would go faster. We had a lot of stuff because there was too of us. When we walked away my friend told me she was mad because the people in front of us got a tray and we had more stuff. She insisted that they had beTRAYed us.
ReplyDeleteI've been in a situation before where I felt betrayed by my friends once in elementary school but recently I've felt betrayed by one of my friends once again. We were not close but still hung out in school. After finding out the rude things she said about my friends and myself I was confused. Why did she feel this way? Why did she have to express her negative feelings towards one of my best friends who was sure enough going to tell me and the others what was rudely said. It was a bad move, we were all very angry at the fact that we didn't do anything wrong to her and she decides to do this to us when most of us barely know her. I felt betrayed by someone i never got a chance to get to know. She hurt my feelings and especially the feelings of my best friends.
ReplyDeleteSadly, everyone get betrayed at least once in their life time. On that sticks out to me is when I was 8. I was obsessed with webkinz and I owned about 7 of them with a huge mansion and a bunch of collective items. I gave my password to my friend because she said she could earn me more points. The next day I woke up to an empty house on my webkinz account. I checked my mailbox, and all my stuff had been sent to her account. I was so upset that I call webkinz and explained the whole situation. They gave me 10,000$ webkinz dollars. I never gave my password to anyone again!
ReplyDeleteThis is a really unfortunate story. I feel so sorry for you! A similar thing happened to me but on moshie monsters. My friend did not send all my stuff to herself but she sent all of our stuff to other random monsters. We shared an account so she decided to express her anger to me by giving away our baby monster blueberry and all our stuff. I felt really betrayed as well.

Yes I have been betrayed before and definitely more than once. The people I usually get betrayed by are friends. Girls are not always the nicest people and they love drama so I think that everyone has been betrayed at least once in their lives. The time that I was last betrayed was when I got into a fight with one of my friends because she was saying mean things about me to my other friends. I told my best friend at the time and she said that she felt so bad for me and that it was awful what she had said yet she had no problem still hanging out with this particular girl. I understand that just because I’m mad at girl it doesn’t mean that my friend should be mad at her too. I did not like it but I tried not to let it bother me. A few days later my best friend continued to tell me what the girl was saying about me so then it occurred to me to ask my best friend what she would say to the girl when she would say these things about me and her answer was nothing. So yes the girl who was talking bad about me was not nice and I did think she was my friend but the girl who really betrayed me in the end was my best friend who just listened to the girl and said nothing at all. I was so confused because I know that if it was me that I would have stood up for her but then again everybody’s different. So yes the girl who was talking about me was mean but in the end this blog is not about her it s about my old best friend.
ReplyDeleteSorry for it being late it is because I did the other one for Wednesday! I did not realize:”(
