Just saying
"You did not betray me, you betrayed yourself." - Optimus Prime
It is not my duty to seek punishment on anyone nor do I feel like people "owe me" anything. If I'm friends with someone I will ask them what their story is - if I choose to believe that we can move on if not than I will move on with my life without them. It's as simple as that... I don't need to ask around to others to see what the real story was because I believe that if they chose to lie to me - that's on them. That's their karma, that's their betrayal to themselves as decent human beings and that really is not my problem. They did not betray me, they betrayed themselves. I follow my gut instinct.
My theory is I would rather be deceived by my friends than to distrust them. At the end of the day though if you have to EVEN ASK... it's already over. That's what I always say. If you can't trust your friends, or your boyfriend or girlfriend and you have to ASK them "Did you _____" then it's over!! If you really trusted them you wouldn't need to ask them. WHAT'S WORSE is going behind your boyfriend or girlfriend's back and confronting SOME RANDOM PERSON to "figure out the truth". I really, really, really do not think that is the right thing to do and I'm shocked by how many people do this! You can't always have the truth served to you on a platter, you have to use your own judgement.
