Oh, what a tangled web we weave..

I can't even count how many times I have been lied to and betrayed in my life. It's the same for all of us. I've done my fair share of lying in the past. As a teenager, it was my language. The thing is, at some point you have to grow up. I woke up really hurt and disappointed, and worst of all I woke up full of doubt about a person that I love this morning, because he lied to me. It wasn't a big lie, but he looked me in the eye three times and lied to me every time. What do you do about that? I really feel like I've been taken advantage of. I always assume the best about people, and to have that thrown back in your face hurts. REALLY hurts. It makes me doubt myself & it makes me doubt him. That's what lies do and that's why I HATE to be lied to. I'm finding it hard to be forgiving. Last night I felt like I hadn't felt in a really long time, and that's going to be hard to forget.
People don't always want to hear the truth, but they always deserve to know. You shouldn't take away some one's right to make an informed decision about the way they feel by being deceitful. You shouldn't assume that someone is going to react a certain way, and use that as justification for a lie. I'm no perfect person, and I'm sure I'll screw up a lot more in my life, but the one thing I will always do is take accountability for my mistakes. I just feel that if you are going to take deliberate action and do something, then it should be something that you are willing to stand by......otherwise you really probably shouldn't be doing it in the first place.
