have you ever been betrayed badly by any of your family? or have you ever betrayed your family?

Question

did you manage to resolve it?

Answer 1

I was betrayed by my sister and although we are friends again I'll never forgive her. Worse still I was betrayed by my first son, I won't go into details but it was horrific and as a consequence he is no longer regarded as my son and not of my family. He has alienated himself from other family members also. I aways said that when mum and dad died the family would fall apart and that is just what happened.
Who else is in the same boat I wonder ??

Answer 2

Yeah i have badly and it got resolved by me being put in care when i was seven :(

Ive been betrayed by sisters loads of times but there always resolved os at the end of the day, there the only family ive got and if it can be done, i suppose it should be resolved because it just causes problems in the future for you.

Answer 3

Over a year ago my sister and I were fondled by our mother's live-in companion. When we learned of it happening to both of us we were unable to avoid telling our mother about it since neither of us wanted to see him again. Otherwise we wouldn't have said anything. How were we betrayed? Our mother chose to never see us again along with two other sisters who supported us even though her companion had amitted to her that the separate events ocurred. Two of my sisters call her periodically and I write her newsy letters. She hasn't initiated any contact. We have never been accusatory toward her as we love her and want to keep the lines of communication open. We have had to accept the situation having done everything that we could to not lose her. We have never asked her to leave him but to attend family events without him which she won't do. So, finally, the situation has resolved to what it is. We love her, will forgive her and want her back. We just have to be patient & hope. Although she'd better hurry up; she's 80! And we are in our 50's and 60's! Prior to this our family has been a close one. Our father died 4 yrs ago & I'm sure that he's rolling over in his urn. Sometimes you just have to accept a situation after everything you can think of has been done.

I can't count the times or ways I've been betrayed by family members, but while some came close to destroying me, they didn't and in the end I became a stronger person because of all I overcame. I wish I could say they were all resolved, but few ever were, the motto in my family is to pretend it never happened, thus it DIDN'T in their "selective" memories. I've forgiven what I can, but will never forget.

Answer 5

my dad betrayed me badly enough when i was 12 and 13 for me to stop going to school ever since and start self harming and no i haven't managed to resolve it cos i still hurt myself but not as much but now i mainly want to hit my dad over the head with a baseball bat.

Answer 6

My sister-in-law and my cousin broke into our home and stole approx. $1000.00 in change that we had been saving for a vacation. How's that for betrayal? Of course we couldn't prove it was them, but we know it was them, the sheriff knows it was them. They have pointed the finger at each other on many occasions. But without that solid proof, what can you do?

To resolve it, we just ignore it. We just sit back and watch the two of them hang themselves. One day they will get what they deserve. Both of them are just one step away from jail. My sister-in-law is having a baby any day, and is looking at a possible prison sentence in December. I think that is a good punishment for her. My cousin is pretty much in the same situation. She was caught stealing from the place that was trying to help her get back on her feet. It's something thru the government, so I believe she'll be in some trouble for that. Then she will probably lose custody of her 3 year old daughter.

Answer 7

I stood up for myself about sibling abuse as a child and my whole family betrayed me. First, as an adult, my older brother slapped me at a family gathering for a minor joke I made. It brought up the physical abuse my brother inflicted on me that was allowed by my mother and father as a child. I asked them to once and for all apologize for allowing it. Not only did no one apologize but my father said that I deserved it. My mother stood by and said nothing. Now I have a 10 month old son and my mother walked out on us when my son was 3 months saying she won't come till my father is allowed to come. I am made a villain - and they have made no effort to resolve the abuse issues and apologize or acknowledge anything! My extended family has never come to visit my son either!!!!

Answer 8

Oh yes my bruv ripped me off for 10K while I was in hospital having a brain tumour removed and could have died - resolved - no way, I wouldn't even bother to resolve it because if he could do that to me when I was dying why would I want to ever speak to him again?

Answer 9

i have been betrayed alot by my family in the past...

today i stand with my head high.....all because i learnt to love myself enough to walk away....

i use to cry continously wondering why but now i know that it was them with the problem...

I learnt to grow up very quickly and have not looked back.
I learnt to trust my instincts and use my own courage to stay strong.....all i knw is that if ur family can treat u like that then really u have no one who u can trust.....only urself....

I am very successful person now, i help alot of people and have achieved alot of recognition....i see my family at times and they feel bad about what they have done to me...

I have resorted to showing respect to them but make sure i have nothing to do with them.....

Answer 10
