How to face a friend that betrayed you?

I think it depends on the person. If he has other qualities that you can benefit off of, then maybe he'd be worth it but I don't really give second chances so I wouldn't see the friend unless I had to.

Fighting over a girl?Owh,that's so immature.C'mon,be cool.Forgive your friend.I now that this is not an easy task,but you have the power to do so.Even,he's the one asking for forgiveness right?Just forgive him.Do remember that,you make friends a lot tougher than making enemies. Cheers..

In the past i was betrayed as well by a friend and to be honest with you alot of peoples relationships do not work out,so i feel that a friendship is better than a relationship that is never going to last.Saying that me and my friend have never spoken since and they are the type of person that would do anything to be like you and they want to have all the things that you want as well as the things that you have,not worth being a friend to them,or saying who you really like or have feelings for.

Its rare that good friends betray you and in this situation i guess your friendship was affected because of a girl so what i suggest is as he has apologised with you he has realised the value of a goodfriend and wants to be your friend please accept him and try to be good griends like before past is past so leave it forget these incidents and forgive him accept his appology he is after all your friend.

That's a hard one most of the time if he's really a friend he should apologise and come to you if you see in his eyes that he is really speaking the truth you can trust him but othervise have something in mind next time you tell him a secter ot trust him/her something

what's the point of being mad at your bestfriend? none of you two ended up with that girl anyway. forgive and forget...they are true. friendship is more important. just think of what you've been through since kindergarten. don't put those into waste over a girl.

well, i have experienced this before and i was fury facing her. but i gave her a chance to speak up for the matter but she failed to please me. we, together with the rest of her so called former friends whom she victimized, were called for a forum in front of our boss. later on everyone found out she also victimized our boss so she got fired urgently. after that no one already wanted to meet her.

That is a tough situation. When someone comes and sincerely apologizes for their mistake you should forgive them. If I was you I would still forgive him. Because the so called childhood love doesn't make sense. When we're teenagers we're just stupid. Who knows people can changer over time. And there is another option, forgive him and keep a distance.

Well...that would be a difficult thing to deal with. Now you are saying that you hated him, it would take some time before you can finally get over that pain he has caused you. Maybe he has repented for what he did but it would be so hard to accept it like that. I do forgive but I don't seem to forget. I don't set rules when or where I could say that I can forget about it all but when the time is right, there will be a chance to get us back together. If I were you, I would talk to him. You can start from where everything had begun. Who knows? From there you will find the missing pieces and he'll realize how he has hurt you. Or maybe in some point you were wrong and need not to feel that anger towards him.

Are you really a friend? I mean, yeah, he did something to you, but you should realize that a friend will stick through thick and thin. And with what you are trying to imply is that you're giving him up over some piece of emotional crap. He apologized. If you can't forgive him, tell him straight away. To be a true friend, you should know and accept the other for who they are, even if they are irritating.

i've been betrayed by a friend in the past as well,it's hard ,when you think you know a person for so long and further refer to them as a friend and then one day they act up and give you no value at all,in my opinion it's not worth forgiving, trust is something hard to gain but easy to loose ,your friend needs to understand this,i know that this has bought great stress to you and probably even after you refuse to forgive him it'll stay so be prepared, p.s: if i was you, i wouldn't forgive the person and relieve him of his title of friend just refer to him as a normal person now and behave with him as such as well

Sometimes we have to face such type of strange situations in life which we never expected and the same thing happened with you.In your case your friend betrayed you because of your girlfriend, and also apart from betraying he forced to leave her. In that case firstly you should end your friendship with the guy and after that you should talk to your girl.If she is really not interested in him so you can continue on with her but if she has then you have end this relationship also.

Well you can forgive him, talk to him just to get it all out your chest. Be the bigger person, you will feel better and get on with your life. you dot need to be his best friend again.

Perhaps the time is really that can dilute everything, at least I believe it can be

Hi daren: I know it depends on you but in my case I will forgive him as a friend. This will show that I'm a good person and that I care more for the positive things of my friend over his bad behaviour because of this girl. But even with that, I think that I couldn't trust in him in the same way I used to do after this situation. ALVARO

Hi, it's sad to hear about your story. Hope you will find someone better in the future. If I am in your shoe, I won't see that friend in the same way I used to because he already showed how he can become when it conflicts with his own personal interest. I remembered there is this saying: "A friend is better than an enemy" thus, I won't mind keeping him as my friend. However, I won't trust/respect him as I did previously even though he apologize because we won't know if he will ever commit the same thing again.

It is one of the worst situation..If he knew that you are loving that girl and still he approached her means then it is very bad and that is not good friendship.. Person who know to forgive are really great human being..But in your situation I can't comment on anything.. If I were in the situation I won't face both the people.. Happy mylotting..

what a hard situation, if you are willing to face than patience and comprehension is required for me loyalty is the number one quality to a friendship so i would never face, just to have a fight of course, but wouldn't call a friend again
