Hypocrite!!!

It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend. By William Blake

                  People come form different country, different society, different culture, different background. But how is it that we all have the same feelings? Happiness, sadness, anger and so much more. In every culture, birth is a happy occasion and family and friends gather around for celebration. This is a universal feeling. And one thing that everyone in the world, no matter what, needs a friend. Friends are so important; they help you through thick and thin, any small or big matter. They are the ones who make your day filled with laughter and joy. But what happens when that important friend betrays you? Of course you would be angry! But most off all under all that anger, thick layer of sadness and hurt feelings stay underneath. I bet that people all over the world have felt this before at least once. No matter what age you are, where you are from or even if you don't understand each other’s language, they can relate to your pain. The anger and hurt of betrayal from your friend is a universal feeling.

                  It is so much better if someone you don't like hurts you because that hurt is quickly consumed by anger and on top of that you don't know that person properly or she does not know you. So, it easier for you to assume and accuse what kind of a “bitch” she is! But with a friend you know her and it takes a lot of convincing to believe in yourself. Because you already have a stereo type of your enemy and when that doest not come true, it becomes easier to accept them cause the worst does not come true and this makes it easier for you to forgive you enemy. But with friends, you know most of their side and when the worst comes out you get shocked and get repulsed by it. So, it’s harder to forgive your friend.

                     I thought I knew who my friend was, if not everything about her, but she always said that she would never betray her friends because of a boy. And when she did exactly what she said she would not do, I lost all respect for her and felt disgusted at first. I started feeling that my entire time with her was a lie and she was just a big hypocrite who did not have self-value. I mean I’m not a saint but at least I don't go around something I don't believe in. I was not even angry; I was just extremely disgusted and hurt. What hurt most was that I actually believed in her and always respected her for who she and her ability to comfort me. It was not my self-thought proclaim that made me believe she would not date a guy that your friend liked, while she knew about it. She was the one who said all these flowery, glittery stuff, it was not my fault I believed in her cause I actually felt that she was being honest. When I found out what she had done, I was so disappointed and this changed our entire friendship. I didn't want to associate with someone who was a big fat hypocrite. If someone other than my close friend did that, it would be easier. Yes, you would get hurt but that would be because the person you liked got taken away. But if a friend did that, the pain would be doubled because of the guy getting snatched and the betrayal of your friend. So, the doubled pain makes it harder for a person to forgive a friend than an enemy.
