Have any of you stories where you were betrayed by someone? I can't think of one yet.

I couldn't put a smile next to the sentence above, it wouldn't have been appropriate.

But just for the sake of it, here is a smile. Laughing

Sit back everybody and enjoy the ride. This could be interesting. Cool

Who hasn't been betrayed?

The only recent memory I can think of is bymy old boss. I worked hard and tried to improve the school. We went out for drinks a few times and dinner. Then later he tried to screw me for money.

Betrayal? I'd say so.

I don't want to go into it, but I will say that I was his host, and he repaid my hospitality by trying to steal my ship and murder me.

I can't think of any in a traditional sense. But there were plenty of times I was rejected by "friends" that I viewed as a betrayal.

Facebook rejections?

Will you go to heaven
Will you land in hell
Are the things you're praying for
The things that serve you well?

Did you get satisfaction
Have you paid the price
Can you look me in the eye
Say you found paradise?

Betrayal, you are what you choose
Betrayal, got everything to loose
Betrayal, one day you'll know
Betrayal, you reap what you sow

Sell your soul for mercy
Heed the reapers call
Waiting for that heart attack
Your back's against the wall
Stealing from tomorrow
Is no way to live
But when you've got no future
Then there's nothing left to give

Betrayal, you are what you choose
Betrayal, got everything to loose
Betrayal, one day you'll know
Betrayal, you reap what you sow

So when you get to heaven
When you land in hell
Are the things you're praying for
The things that serve you well?

Betrayal, you are what you choose
Betrayal, got everything to loose
Betrayal, one day you'll know
Betrayal, you reap what you sow


An oldie but a goodie.

No, not Facebook.

I have been replaced countless number of times by people cooler than me. Sometimes my "friend" will come back when they fight with the new one (or if they new one is busy.) I don't care.
I wish I had a fair weather friend these days.

I was in a serious motorcycle accident and spent a few weeks in the hospital. My live-in girlfriend of nearly two years, who I had supported financially, emotionally, etc., saw this as a good opportunity to break up with me, with no warning that she was even unhappy.
I had taken a 2nd job so that she could focus her energy on school, and was even on my way to pick her up that day when I had my accident. Yet she thought it ok to abandon me in the hospital and leave me to deal with my recovery alone. My last day in the hospital, she was supposed to show up for my discharge, and never did. I had no keys, wallet, and my phone was dead. I had to walk home from the hospital.
I think I am the winner of this thread.

Heartless. The good thing is you are rid of her. Laughing

I am too angry to give details about it: a friend of the family tried to claim my dad's second property holding hobby building project as his own after my dad died, presenting weak photocopy of supposed sale by my dad, the sort of hazy light ink copy that could easily be a cut and paste job, he saying my dad had the original somewhere; another friend close to my dad claimed it was all hogwash, that the thousands I'd been sending home were put into the construction project by my dad to build me a home. Anyways, unclear as this all may seem to you because it's getting me upset just thinking about it. Well, let's just say I now believe anyone is capable of anything, even myself. Mad Friends and neighbours rose up against the swindler and for that I am grateful.

That is not betrayal. I wish people would stop distorting words and their definitions, then apply both wrong.
