Some people have said that going through something like this, really helps opening your eyes on who your real friends are....But is anyone else is feeling really sad about the fact that the people you thought were friends betrayed you in the end?...

Has this happened to you or someone you may know, How have you guys gotten over this? Did you eventually go back to your old friends and just sweep it under the rug? Or get a new circle of friends?....

Feel free venting out as long as you would like to but Please do not name anyone....Thank you! ;)

Let's discuss this....
 
Yes, Ive been betrayed by friends online and in real life - some I was able to be friends with again, but on different terms, and some I decided I did not want to be friends with again.

It hurts - really big time especially when you thought you were okay with a person, and it turns out that they've been backstabbing you all along - or telling other people your secrets.

It sucks.
 
I have been betrayed by people who I thought they were my friends. I guess some of them are not my realy friends, and I had to quit talking. I know I didn't do anything. I am only friendly person, and I don't grew up in the only deaf community, but in the both community. And I am glad I have great friends that I can chat with and communicate with them.
 
Aww I understand how you girls feel :grouphug:

I'm same way as you girls are in, I 've been betrayed by friends online too, which I thought at first they were my friends until they start talking behind my back even through I've been nice to them..but at least I have some real friends that I can count and trust the most, so I'm not worried about how many friends that had betrayed me, at least I can make new friends which I have, and they're good people who has a sweet heart....
 
Yea, I've been betrayed by a friend who I thought was my very close and trusting friend. I would tell her all about my personal problems and she would listen to me. Same goes with her telling me about her personal problems and I would listen to her. Until I found out that she was telling someone else about me I was hurt and felt betrayed. I told my friend that she wasn't my true friend at all. She cried and begged me to forgive her. I forgave her but our friendship isn't the same as it was before she betrayed me.
 
I understand how you all feel because I was the same shoe as you all, too... It´s hurt... because I thought for a long time that they are my true friends... :(

I learn my own lesson for not get more and more friends but limit them what I can. All what I do is reason/try to advise them what I can when they trust me with their problems with people whom I´m befriend with instead of involve those issues with them because I don´t want to stab my friend´s back to them but try to get them to make peace... It´s ME.

I haven´t any experience with online friends but in real life. I have few online friends, I am close to. I have some online friends whom I am able to trust openly. Some online people trust me with their problems but I tried to reason/advise them what I can. I share feedback to them when I´m disagree or agree instead of backstabbing.

Honestly I´m a peacemaker... I bet some online people will read my posts and know it... because I tried to make them peace when one complaint to me about other and then other complaint to me about one... I brought them together and make up peace... They thank me...

Sometimes I´m middle between them because they are my friends which it´s not easy... I try my best what I can without backstabbing each other.

I´m not type to stab anyone´s back... but help them what I can.
 
few betrayed friends did to me, stabbed my behind back, ugly gossip and immature.. i know it.. i am not stupid abt that.. so i dont care abt them what they talk abt me.. cuz of they are jealous and ugly hearts... so i dont think that i go back old friends, will they do it again?? forget it!
 
I have been betrayed some of mine before in my home country, only one of them my longest (since my 3 grade she's a high school student) and best friend is in France now I wish we're close to each other here or there, here in USA I don't have real or best friends yet
 
Yes, never let the sun set on your anger; provide hope for reconciliation in very near future.
 
i do have been betrayed from a friend of mine and some from online that i thought that were my friends
 
Good thread there ^Angel^, I have so much to vent out. :thumb:


I'm so sick of two-face backstabbers those who are from online and here at AD, To be honest, I don't know what tick them off, I haven't done a damn thing to them. It's like if you have a problem with me, talk to me like mature adults. I've tried to talked to few of them in private message and it did not work. I don't know what's their problem is, How am I suppose to know what's wrong with them when they won't speak up? I just gave up and move on with what I have which are real friends. (Mwahies to those who stick with me thin and thick) :ily:

I don't hate anyone, I am just disappointing in some of them who doesn't have a guts to come to me and discuss any issues that they may have with me. All they do is spread gossip and rumors. It's like whatever. I am not going to waste my time on something so stupid and immature. :o
 
Good posting, CheriTree!

I do feel the same way and have been treated the same way - and also have been called a backstabber by other people and left me wondering what in the heck happened here...and then found other people using my name to further their own agendas. That hurt, also.

:smash: :smash: AMEN!!!! i agree with u! u did good job! :ily:
 
There are a few that has betrayed me. Just something I can't talk about in here cuz they're deaf as well and can come in here and read what I said. I can explain alittle though.. It does hurt when i get betrayed by close friends that I thought they were my true friends. But what can I do? I just have to move on and continue with my true friends. I definitely know who my true friends are.. there are only a few. Like I said I don't have a bestfriend but the best of friends and I prefer that way
 
Yes, I feel betrayed by my hearing friend. We were so close as sister which we don't have sister. Somehow she broke her promise. It upset and hurt me so much. :tears: I asked her to sit down and work out but she keep avoid to face problems. That's mean she knows she was wrong and feel guilty.
 
been there dealt with and lived with it its one obession after the next. and some eye opening revealtion to know who ur true friends are some arent even that remotely close to being a friend. therefore its the person who have insecurties or just plain drifted apart, main thing is the true friends are those who stuck by you thru thick and thin. i have seen it all first hand and i know the truth within myself and if they can't see it for themselves then thier not truly your friends.

i sit here pondering on issues and the only issue of backstabbers are the ones who can't seem to shut up and move on or most of all, have thier own plms and wants to backstab others to make them feel better.

as for myself yes i admit i backstabbed some people because they refused to see themselves and if they can't its on them. however, when it comes to being backkstabbed by others they themselves cld not go to the person who they have a problem with and resolve it. so they listen to other poeple and its sad. simple said simple done.

IMO they should learn to stay out of other poeple's plm then we wouldn't be having a backstabbing drama fest.
 
Happens all the time. That explains why I haven't had a best friend for a while now. :eek3:

It's hard to trust people these days.
 
However, then there are those "so-called" friends that think that others are obessed and when called out, they do not understand why those others turn on them with anger - it's because they're so self-absorbed in their own "righteous fevour" that they think others are being obessed with them, the past, other people, whatever...that they cannot see the forest for the trees.

IMSHO, it is a big friggin shame when you think you're friends with someone, and that person turns on you, thinking that you been telling other people about you, when it is actually the people they're fighting with or snubbing, or whatever they're doing, that are doing the talking.

I know - I've heard plenty of s*** about other people and even about the people doing the s***ting themselves on those they're talking about.

And yes, I've been called plenty of names - obessed, obessive, stuck in the past, homewrecker, etc., etc., and guess what? I've become like a duck, I just let those dribble down my back, wiggle my tailfeathers to shake those insults off, and walk off quacking.

Why? 'Cuz, I got good friends that know the truth. They're the ones that asks for both sides to the story, weigh in both sides, keep their mouths shut, and are able to keep their friendships on both sides intact. I got secrets that other people have told me that would make your hair turn white, or your bald heads pale beyond comparison.

Being a good friend is accepting the fact that no friendship is perfect, and may not last forever, so you treasure each and every friend you have - you talk openly and honestly to your friends, you share secrets, confident in the knowledge that they will keep those secrets close to their hearts, never telling anyone else your secrets.

You also cherish every true friend you have, you treat them as your equals, you may vent out in anger and they accept it because they know you're not angry at them, you just need to release some pressure off yourself, and you accept theirs in return.

Most of all, you know your true friends, because they do not gossip about you, and you do not gossip about them, you will warn them if you hear something and they, in turn, will warn you likewise.

When you tell someone that you ain't their friend, it becomes evident...you were never their true friend in the first place, you used them to your advantage, and when it was all done and over, you threw them away like an used klennex.

You want a true blue friend - be a true blue friend yourself to them, also.

Tit for tat.

And by the way, in my f***ing opinion, if you backstab someone just because you think they refuse to see the truth in themselves, you are someone that no one will want for a friend.

You do not do that to someone, because in the first place, they will return the favor on your reputation, and make you look worse than they do - and you're back in the penalty box.

Backstabbing someone will cause you to lose some true blue friends - and others to stay even further away from you.
