You go through life hoping you will meet someone, somewhere will understand what you're all about. You go through life knowing no one ever will. And you come to terms with it - slowly but surely.
And then someone comes along and messes it all up. Could be that cute boy, the not so cute stalker or your best-est gal pal. That person finishes your sentences, speaks your mind, doesn't judge, asks...and more importantly, listens! And you think you are one of the lucky few who has met The One!
You are so kicked with this new found camaraderie that you break all your rules, bring down your well-honed defence system, confide all your insecurities and reveal the inner workings of your deranged, whacky, rebellious mind. What you are actually doing...is handing them a lot of ammo...on a silver platter.
You think you have found a shoulder to cry on, arms that hug you and hands that hold you. But pretty soon you discover that those well-toned arms have got their strength from all the back-stabbing they've done. You've let them in...and now they leave without so much as a 'goodbye'. The person doesn't speak your mind anymore. They speak theirs. They don't judge - they condemn. Without a hearing.
The One sells you out! And they don't need 30 pieces of silver to do it. They just need a well-honed knife.
Which they sharpen.
Then stab.
Then twist.
...and walk away.

Nice..
Its always the people whom who love the most desert you without saying a word...
difficult to forget and even more difficult not to think about
Look if all you want to do is cry on his shoulder and expect him to hold your hand (while crossing the street?!) you are probably making his life miserable too.
The back-stab is probably just an attempt to save his own life!
Go party, do something creative and have some fun!
