Day 20

╚═━────━▒ ۞ ▒━────━═╝

Hello and welcome to Day 20 of my personal journey through #30DaysofShadow! Today's topic will be focusing on feeling betrayed by someone who was not who they seemed. For today, I will be completing a journal entry of the topic I discussed. Without anymore wait, here is my journal entry!

Things are not always what they seem

Someone I felt betrayed by was someone I used to be really close with. For the purpose of this prompt, we'll just call her J. She and I were best friends for over 7 years, we had considered each other sisters. In fact, we used to trick people and say we were related when we weren't, we just looked that similar to the other. She was my platonic other-half.

However about a year (maybe closer to 2 years) ago she met a boy, and became interested in him. I ed her 100% and was happy to see her happy. However over time, she began drifting away. She started lying to me and finding excuses as to why she could never talk to me or hangout with me. I wouldn't have cared if she wouldn't have lied. She began pushing me aside and stopped talking to me. There were things that I would do that she would reprimand me for, but it would be totally fine if her boyfriend did the exact same thing.

After some time of being treated like this, I confronted her with how I felt. I discussed with her how she was treating me made me feel, and in turn she flipped it all back on me saying it was all my fault. She refused to acknowledge how she treated me and blamed me for it all. I felt betrayed and angry, she was basically my sister and she was dropping me for the first boy who gave her goo goo eyes. I have since cut her off. I occasionally miss her, but I probably just miss what we had. If she ever came back I don't think I could ever be friends with her again.

Conclusion

Thank you again for ing me today! This was Day 20 of #30DaysofShadow. This is definitely something I'm still bitter about whenever I think about it. Over time I will probably forgive her and move on. I hope my journey inspires you to start your own! All GIFs from Giphy.
