Week 7 D1- Trust



There have been a few times when I have lost trust in a person. One of my best friends had back stabbed me and started making false acquisitions after her and her boyfriend(who I’ve known my whole life) broke up. I was stuck in the middle of them and she started telling our other friends lies about me because she was made at me for stepping back and telling my best friend and her ex that I didn’t want to be caught in the middle of their break up and that I would still be friends with both of them as long as they didn’t try to get information out of me about the other.  Also me and her had promised each other that if they had ever broken up, that we would still be friends. So when she started saying lies about me, it broke my trust with her. I was hurt by her breaking my trust in her, but then I soon realized that it was her loss and that I shouldn’t get to upset over it. She was being immature and unreasonable about everything. Our trust was never fully restored and we aren’t really friends now. It’s a shame being caught between friends in that situation and losing trust in someone because of something dumb.

  1. Roro,
    I completely understand your situation with your best friend and her ex-boyfriend. I was in the very same situation two months ago with my two good friends who broke up. Although my situation wasn’t as dramatic as yours sounds, I can definitely understand and see the direction that mine could have gone in. Being stuck in the middle is difficult, but knowing when and where to draw the lines between yourself and the two of them could cause tension and lead to the distrust and arguments. Unfortunately some things just don’t work out how you would think, like your situation, but it sounds like you handled it as best as you could!

  2. Hey Roro!
    I find myself losing my trust in some of my friends every once in a while. That seems like a pretty sticky and intense situation you got there. I can see how this relationship cannot be restore. It is hard to trust someone again when they go around telling lies about you. She does sound pretty immature and unreasonable in the situation but I think she was because she just needed something to release this anger from the break up and maybe spreading rumors about you seem to be the easiest thing. Even though you guys are not really friends anymore, I hope that one day maybe you guys will become friends again!

  3. Roro,
    The situation that you described is an unfortunate one. I have been in a similar situation and I ended my friendship with one of them after the situation came to a conclusion. I think you handled the situation in a very mature fashion. Realizing that it was her loss and that it shouldn't affect you was a good way to look at things. In the end, it really wasn't your fault and you didn't want to hurt your relationship with either of them by getting in the middle of the conflict. It's sad to lose friends over stupid things like you said, but I believe that things happen for a reason.
