Broken and Shattered

How was it so easy for you? I can't imagine doing anything like that. Lies the whole time, about everything, And here I thought I could trust you. I loved you like I never loved before. I trusted you like I haven't in a long time, I actually told you how vulnerable I am. I have a hard time trusting, I told you, You told me you loved me, were in love with me. If you really were how could you hurt me So purposely and senselessly? You never should have done this to me. Now I'm broken and shattered, Will I ever trust again?

I think we have all been betrayed at some time Janet and learning to trust again is so so difficult - once bitten twice shy is oh so right:-( hugs Jan xx

This is sad, but very well expressed. It is so hard to be betrayed by someone you thought you could trust. I've bern there, too. Take care and God bless!
