This post is all about being stabbed in the back by someone you know and trust...It is a shocking discovery to find out right?
Have you had any such experience where you were stabbed in the back by someone you know and trust? how was the experience? did you confront this person?
Or was it you that stabbed someone that trusted you in the back? were you confronted? Or was it a retaliatory stab in the back done to you or you to the person?
Lets gist!
Yes o, reason why I run solo now. I have only one friend and we have stood the test of time for 10years now.
ReplyDeleteMy son is my sure friend too and personally I am not the sociable or outgoing type that have who and who as friends. I can decide to keep five persons as friends and they would be my ride or die. But my orientation is stuck on less is peace and peace is the best.
Hmmmm
ReplyDeleteI was stabbed o... I fought so hard not to get my own pound of flesh... I'm glad I resisted d temptation.. now I ride solo... No friends or bestie o.... I no longer open up to people I interact with. All they know is the surface part of me .
ReplyDeleteMy friend trying to convinced me to marry a fake lawyer. Someone, that was fraudulently practicing as a lawyer and she knew about it. Very young fine guy. If my parent were always presurrizing me to get marry, I would have jump up on it. The guy was ready to marry immediately. But my instinct kept fighting it.
ReplyDeleteThe day I knew, I cut her off completely. Blocked her immediately. She just wanted to destroy me, knowing how much I don't want to stain my name or associate with anything fraudulent. Oh!! I would have been so sad forever, if that ever happened. Thank you Jesus
Reason why I'm wary when so-called friends and family members try to link me up with a guy. They'll never link you with someone better than their own or even doing as well as their own. It's always someone they would never even consider for themselves or their sisters.

DeleteSame feeling about match making, it takes the spirit of God in the referer to introduce better option plus it irritates me when they starting telling everyone about how they introduce the couple to eachother.
DeleteI can't really remember.
ReplyDeleteYes, I have been stabbed in the back many times, especially by my friends and family members. It was so bad that I draw a line in my life not to give them the opportunity to hurt me after confronting them. And I made up my mind not to lose myself, because of them.
ReplyDeleteWhen I took the decision to be intentional in life, I let go so many disappointment and betrayals I suffered in life. Reason is that, I cannot hold on to what is hurting me if truly I want to be happy in life.
ReplyDeleteThere comes a point in time in life you just have to forgive people even without getting an apology from them.
But the truth remains, no one will ever forget how you made them feel.
Right from day one I don't keep many friends except my family every other person is on arms length. So no experience of serious betrayal whatsoever.
ReplyDeleteEven family has to be thoroughly screened
DeleteIt happens in all sorts of ways. Even witholding life changing information from others. Yet, all they do they must kiss there 6×6 one day.

ReplyDeleteHa Stella, in my office just before I left Nigeria, I didnt know I was heavily backstabbed by a man in a sister sector working in same branch that I saved from suicide through financial help, words of encouragement and almost got him a better job as he was in a junior role.
ReplyDeleteHe told series of lies to paint me black at the office. I didnt believe this but it was confirmed to me by my superiors when they had facts that I didnt do all he said. His aim was to get my boss sacked, then I would be taken out of the branch and seen as bad, but as God would have it, the truth surfaced, I resigned in about a month as I relocated to my new country now as a PR but trust me, that was the end of friendships especially at the office for me. I left and they knew when I tendered my letter of resignation at the head office and blocked the gossips. I was really hurt.
Just Learnt someone l called my BFF is a pretender in green grass, still sinking in as its a bad feeling...betrayal of any kind is horrible. Was going through a tough time in my marriage & she was there girl the whole drama. Only to learn she was talking ill of me behind my back. It's unfortunate a friendship has ended l texted her ,& am glad l knows the truth.
ReplyDeleteShe did and kept at it for a very long time without remorse. It wasn't the stab that was painful but the face of the dog behind the mask- a dog that all abhorred and made mockery of whom I chose to help, feed, assist and protect in every good way. The only 'thank you' she knew and chose was evil-right under my roof, use my name to lure, defraud and sleep with different men, told several lies about me and kept selling it as the truth, envied so hard etc. But how come I didn't read meaning into it all, until I began to pay close attention. Well, I took the knife, cut the rope, rode at dawn, burnt the bridge, forgave her and shut every access to me. Surprisingly, after over a decade, this dog sneaks up on social media searching for 'her mother', as what exactly? If you were me, what would you do to a serpent that could not kill you and has now become a dragon looking for a way to complete what she started? The snake is surprised that I dusted her on all sides and the difference is now clear to all. Each time I see or think of her, I give God thanks for proving himself faithful in my life. All I feel is pity, just pity for her. We no dey category in the past, how much more now and even if I allowed her back, what will be the conversation or connection? My road far and there is no dulling. Since that incidence, I don't waste a second in cutting anyone off once I observe such tendencies.
