BETRAYAL

I was reading one of those gossip's magazines this afternoon while sipping on my pineapple juice (i'll tell you about it later or you could Google it and find out yourself, hehehe) and i came across this magazine with a huge headline " Jamie Lynn Spear BETRAYED" (Britney's lil' sister fiance cheated on her with another woman! 'gasp!!!' )  

How often do i feel that i was being BETRAYED by my lovers? my friends? my coworkers? or anyone else who are matter to me the most, yet they BETRAYED me???

When i was manager for a bank a few years back, all of my staffs knew what it take to make the our branch run like clock works, and what it take to make our customers TRUSTED us. For my part, i wanted to make sure that my staffs also well taken care of, because i know most of them are underpaid, but that wasn't my decision to made, but i did try whatever possible ways to make them stay loyal to my branch and doesn't do anythings stupid of sort.  Yet, i can't expected everyone to be perfect. When i entrusted some of my staffs with codes and keys to the branch vault, counting and shipping out hundred of thousand dollars every week when the vault are overflown with cash.  Or accounts of customers, i EXPECTED them to be very loyal to my branch and not talked about our customer's finances.  That was a tremendous trust my company given to me, and i passed that TRUST along to my staffs.  I had numerous employees handcuffed and taken away by police because they had betrayed my trust in them, by switching $10 bills in the $100 bills stacks while counting money in the vault, or created bogus checking and saving accounts to funnel customer's money into their account to withdraw, or cashed bogus checks for their friends without proper verifications.  For them, they're being punished by laws, reported by the nightly news to make sure everyone knew about their stupid deeds, and will never ever have any similar jobs in the banking or finance industry. 

But how do you remedy if your friends or someone closed to you BETRAYED your TRUST in them??? When a casual friend of mine does me wrong, I often shut that person out by cut off all contact with them.  As if they were never really exist.  How about someone closer than just a casual friend? someone you ENTRUSTED with everything, someone you have shared your personal space with? your happy times together? your bad or bitchy time with? someone that you'll drop everything you're doing at the moment to make sure that he's OK? and yet he BETRAYED your love and your TRUST for him?  Should i shut them out like they way i treated my employees or my casual acquaintances? 

What do you really get out of when you BETRAYED the person that cared about you the most? 

I really want to know the answer... but will i get one?
