Journal 2: Things Are Not What ​They Seem...

To keep this person anonymous, I am going to call her Person A (for anonymous).

I have never been one to put full trust into a person before. I prefer to keep certain aspects of my life isolated and reserved. The one time I had decided to trust somebody because she was nice and seemed trustworthy. My instincts were wrong and I was deceived.

I think that it hurts the most to be betrayed by someone who you never though to be deceitful. This person was my best friend. The first person who I open up to about my hopes and dreams. Someone who seemed to have known me better than myself. On the outside or what I had known of her, Person A was quiet to everybody except to her friends. She had open up to me and made me feel important when I didn't feel the same about myself. "Things are not what the seem" works in this scenario because of how quickly we became strangers. Over the time span of a week, I went from being her best friend to feeling as if I wasn't good enough for her. Person A used to be the only person who would cheer me up when others had knocked me down. Words that I heard about me would swarm in my head consuming my thoughts. I felt alone. Who is supposed to be your support system when your best friend becomes your enemy?
