Selfishness and betrayal can and do break the heart. But I learnt from it to become stronger and to analyse why and what it happened to me.
You learn from everything in life, the important thing is to do it. The heart can be broken not only by a partner, a boyfriend, but also by friendships or what one believes to be friendships. In my case, both have happened to me.
First, I suffered great pain when what I thought were my high school friends betrayed me. They say that it is easy to be in the good times and that true friends are seen in the bad times, but I can tell you that in the good times you can also know who is a true friend.
I had been chosen in high school as a flag escort, on merit, the teachers chose me and so did the directors. And I was very happy about it. But it seems that my so-called friends weren't. They just said I didn't deserve it. They just said I didn't deserve it and they stayed away from me. I suffered so much, I cried so much, I can't explain it.
Eventually I realised that I had been used for a long time, to do work for them, I helped them, I was the studious one and I loved to help, but I couldn't see what was behind that supposed friendship. A lot of envy. Eventually I got over it and found true friendships. Those who are my equals, I learned to love myself, to respect myself and not to betray myself and those people came along, the ones who really loved me.
But also someone you fall in love with or think you fall in love with can break your heart, tear it apart, trample it underfoot. Maybe it's for the same reason as above, I didn't love myself enough, if I don't love myself I can't project that onto others. I think I learned that.
In this case it was a selfish person with a lot of ego and I was someone who was just learning about life. And by the time I realised how much he was hurting me, I was hurting too much, but I was able to walk away, learn and become stronger. I remember my best friend telling me: It's his loss. And today I think... what I saved myself from.
I didn't know it, because I didn't know myself yet, but that person was absolutely the opposite of me. And even though he broke my heart, it was the best thing that could have happened to me, it was a great lesson. Being at the other person's beck and call every minute didn't make them see me more or take more notice of me. But you learn from everything.
I also cried a lot, rivers of tears, but after a long time I got over it and then I continued my apprenticeship. By learning, you find the right person, the one whose soul you can see in the eyes and whose soul is compatible and beautiful.
The heart can be broken, but it can also be rebuilt and with more strength. Thank you always @galenkp for these great weekend themes.
