Hi Pollyanna,

I am deeply saddened and sorry that that happened to you. That person was not your “friend”; real friends would never do that to you.

I can imagine the trauma, hurt and betrayal. What they did was absolutely horrific...

I want you to know that I am listening and that I believe you. Write here any time that you want, but take your time...no rush or pressure. Just know that this is a safe space for you...

Kind and caring thoughts,

Pepper

Hi Pollyanna1991

I am so very sorry this has happened to you, this is truly the ultimate betrayal by someone you thought was a friend, as Pepper mentioned, this is most certainly not a friend.

What makes this person the "fixer" of all things that they needed to make it their duty to make a "correction" to your life, what a hideous person...I am so very sorry Pollyanna1991 that this happened to you, horrific.

I am so also very sorry that you feel that you are not able to be hugged and not able to receive love as you need. You are most deserving and what happened to you was not your fault, you are not to be punished as a result of their horrendous behavior...you deserve love and you deserve hugs and they will not take this away from you.

I hope that they have been made accountable for their actions and that they have at least been called to own what they did.

I too wish you the ability to heal from this, to be able to sleep and to be able to be you again, I believe this is possible and perhaps with some professional help. Have you considered some counselling for this?

We are here for you to chat as much or as little as you need or want to.

Heartfelt hugs to you Pollyanna1991
