what happens when a loyal friend broke your trust?

I think that if a friend breaks your trust in a friendship with them, then you find it hard to ever trust that person again. I have had a few friends that have broken my trust in them for either saying things, or doing things, now I try not to see a few of them. I have also found out recently that a friend is not to be trusted, as they repeat things that they have heard to other people, or say oh sorry it slipped out.

you know that when you forgive something that someone did you ARE NOT FORGIVING that person. You are putting forgivreness in your heart and wont allow them to control your life like this. When I was little i had a TON of friends and my mom always told me that you will soon see that youwill by the time you are 40 you will only have 2/3 friends. i said WHAT??? NOOO WAY... well im in my mid 30s and I finally get what shes saying. TRUE friends are very hard to come by. Oned that stick with you know matter what. thick and thin and dont judge you or believe rumors or anything. Those are the kinds of friends you need in your life. Not 56 friends who will do what all women do...talk talktalk,,, wheter its you at the brunt of jokes or one of your friends are. Is that who u wanna spend your time with?? Not me...I have 3 best friends and i wouldn't trade them in for the world. Granted I have a lot of acquaintanves but very fr=ew are my real friends. Think about that for awhile. You dont have to be judged or criticized by them bvc your true friends will stand by you no matter WHAT...hope that helped a little

You are true there. I believe that when a loyal friend betrayed me, he or she must exert effort to regain the friendship and the trust I once have to him or her. Maybe in time, I could accept him or her again, my doors are kept open at all times for him or her. Thank you

It really painful when losing friend but we need to accept the fact that when somebody broke our trust it really hard to fix it and give it again to them. Forgiving her is enough but better to be careful in trusting her again because she might do the same again. One of my friend before betrayed and she is my relative also but I forgive her because I know that she did it to prove herself that she is better that me but I realized that she is nothing like me because I will never betrayed someone else just to prove myself and I have lots of true friends that I know they will never let me down.

I am so sorry for you, but I think there is nothing you can do about it. Even if you know her from your childhood, after some time you feel like you actualy dont know that person anymore, even like you never knew him/her before. It is so strange, but it makes you tougher.

It really hurts to lose a friend especially if that friend of your's has been a part of your life for so long. i think if that happens to me, it will really be hard to bring back the trust. I mean, once trust is broken, you already have issue on trusting her/him that's why it will really be hard to bring it back again.

Wow, she's not very intelligent too cause she knows you already so if she thinks you are capable of doing such a thing why would she be your friend for so many years? Wich makes me think also if this is not an excuse. Don't worry dear, the important thing, in time of course, this could hurt for a while, it is that you know you didn't do anything wrong so that's her problem. We can forget or stop living with anyone, if people get out of our lives one day we always realize they weren't meant to be with us, be them friend or love.

Well to be honest my ex-friends had broken my trust numerous times. That is why they are ex-friends. I know that trust is a huge issue for some people as it is for me. I know people can forgive easily than others but I just can't seem to forgive them for what they've done. It's usually something I said to keep it a secret and then they tell the person that I wanted to keep the secret from. Which is very major in my opinion.

That's one of the hardest thing that could happen to someone. I mean, our friends/bestfriends are the ones to whom we share most our secrets. We share to them very personal things that really means a lot for us. And being betrayed by a friend is like being left frozen in a corner knowing you can no longer trust that person.

That is so so sad :C I am so sorry that you lost a friend, especially one since childhood. Very sad. I am a huge believer in forgiveness where certain people are concerned. We are people with emotions and there are often so many extenuating circumstances, it's just something that is just plain necessary. So many people can make accidental assumptions. Perhaps you can bring yourself back to trust her. Iknow it's hard, but I've done that, I've gotten back together with people in my life. I am really hoping that this blows over for you and you can go back with each other as before. It's hard, I know. My best of luck to you. Just remember one thing, never never never use drama, never never never become dramatic. does not sound that you would do so, but just in case, the 'no drama' guideline should always be in place in regards to human relationships. Good Luck.

That's really painful, I'd experienced that before, and to think that you truly loved and trusted them, and will do anything for that friendship, but only one big trial will ended it all...

aizace,it's true indeed that losing a friend is really painful specially if trust is the issue of losing him/her. But, I believe that every relationship has trials and to loss him/her is a part of it. What's important is you were able to be one again as a friend. Mending a broken trust is not easy but when you're able to mend it, it will become better than before.
