Most women have been betrayed by some man in her life sooner or later. When I went through the first most serious betrayal (a beating and stabbing) I vowed to never speak to him again. My next loves hurt me in very different ways. In these cases we tried to forgive and forget, but he more or less dumped me as "a friend." The lasting relationship I am now in requires some healing and forgiving. We are planning that now.

My point is that every love is different and requires different healing and support. Best.
