Reader, you may ask, what is the point of this story? Well, my goal is help others deal with the betrayal and hurt caused by an ex-best friend. I know what you're thinking. I know, this isn't exactly a new subject of conversation but I'd like to think my perspective is helpful nonetheless.
Growing up, I was taught that if someone is mean, or treats you incorrectly you do one of two things: 1. Kill them with kindness, or 2. "Turn the other cheek" (Matthew 5:39)
Now let's be real here people, neither of those is what we want to do first. My personal order of operations is to usually cry (to serve as an emotional release) and then get angry (usually more of indignation than actual anger) which yes, I know those things don't constitute an actual course of action but I find that giving yourself time to process emotions first keeps you from doing anything rash and regrettable (like crashing a wedding.)
Now you won't hear the story of what happened, that would not be fair to my own healing process. Drudging up old wounds, that's not my style. Instead, I want to leave you with some definitions and what they mean to me.
