Question: First time someone ever disappointed you?

[I]Okay, so it was taken me

Now, people can disappoint me a lot especially when I vocalize my need of something. It is very rare for me to ask for a favor because I always find a way out or I struggle through. So the moments of needing help, I ask for it, and people are not there for me, hurts. Now that I have grown to be more in tune with my feelings and embracing my vulnerability, I am able to have friends that I can rely on. The first encounter of disappointment was when I wanted to open up to a friend of mine towards the end of summer about something traumatic that had happened to me. She was the only one I thought would understand and help me to uplift this pain that had quickly taken my idea of peace and tranquility that I had in me. Instead she said I was at fault for being at his place so late and why would I ever tell anyone for it would hurt his chances of going to a college.

I'm not sure what hurt more, being told it was my fault that this "friend" attacked me or that someone I was closed with decided to take on the attacker's side than mine. All I knew was that I was greatly hurt, disappointed, and felt discouraged for a long time to ever say anything to anyone about it.

Yes, I was hurt but I call it a lesson learned. As I have continued to slowly open up to those I am close with, I will always remain a strong for my loved ones as I have known that not having the you need can be the biggest disappointment yet.
