Remember one time when you felt betrayed?

Recall that hot flush of recognition when you first realized that someone you knew very well would act one way and didn’t? What to do? How not to become bitter or wary? Funny how one betrayal is often closely followed by another wrenching experience — or so it seems. Even if your life is on a fairly even keel, one trust-breaker situation makes the second one hit harder — if we let it.
