PRETENDER:

actor, charlatan, deceiver, fake, faker, fraud, hypocrite, imitator, impostor, phony

 

Please don't lie to someone who trusts you, someone you have asked to trust you, asked to love and believe in you.  Don't lie to someone who holds and heals you.  Don't use them and strip their goodness away.  They will never be the same.

One Woman's Truth

“What would happen if one woman told the truth about her life?  The world would split open.
-Muriel Rukeyser

 

Each of us has a truth of our own buried deep inside, a boundless sea of thought, feeling, emotion, upon which our outward persona sails, dark and stormy, calm and flowing, these are the currents that give us life. We humans are as fragile as any ship ever built and exposing our inner selves is not something we do naturally, an evolutional safety. Once or twice in a life time we may meet someone we feel safe enough with to open our harbor gates and let our true selves flow. It is both a thrilling and frightening voyage, and when it happens, changes us forever.

Being betrayed by someone you trust, changes you even more.

A story of betrayal is never just one story for betrayals don't come that way, they develop from a long legacy of betrayals. The person capable of betraying is incapable of certain thoughts and emotions, and operates from a deficit of character, predictably scripted by a scarcity of human bonding, repeated lacks of nurturing and acceptance.

When our reality has been shattered, we lose all faith and belief in ourselves, in life and the world around us. The one thing we all have, that no one can ever take away from us, is our truth.

Heroes, Doormats & Sex Addicts

Excerpt from:

Sandra Bullock is A Hero, Elin Woods is a Doormat and Sex Addiction is Lame

 http://www.jewishjournal.com/keepingthefaith/item/sandra_bullock_is_a_hero_elin_woods_is_a_doormat_sex_addiction_is_lame_2010/

Sandra Bullock did what so many women were hoping she would.  She filed for divorce. I loved Sandra Bullock before this whole mess started.  Now, not only do I love her, but I also respect and admire her.

Sandra is a hero.  To every woman who has been broken, she is a hero.   She is brave and strong, and unlike Elin Woods, she respects herself enough to walk away from a man who did not respect her, and their life together.  Elin Woods should pay very close attention to how Ms. Bullock is handling herself through all of this.  It’s not too late for her to come to her senses, and walk away from her disgusting, lying and cheating husband. 

To all the women who are in relationships right now, where they know they are being disrespected, gather strength from her, and get out.  To Elin Woods, get out.  It is better to forge ahead on your own, even if you are heartbroken and scared, than stay with a man who does not respect you, and your life together.  Sandra Bullock filing for divorce was brave, and the right thing to do.  Period.

I am getting bored with men who say they are suffering from sex addiction.  It is a convenient label to put on yourself when you have crossed a line, and there appears to be no way back.  What they are suffering from, is a case of “I’m famous-she won’t leave me-I can sleep with anyone I want, porn star loving-Nazi worshipping-money seeking-skanky whore digging-I don’t care what my kids will think of me-itis.”  This ailment is more commonly known as,  “Imadouchelorditis.”  Sadly, there is no cure.

How dare he say that it would be selfish for him to not let her go?  It has nothing to do with you buddy.  Even if you begged, which I’m sure you did, she wouldn’t take you back.  She has too much respect for herself, her child, and her heart, to stay with you. Are you kidding me?  Really?  Jesse James is a pig, and if he thinks we’re buying this load of crap, then he is also a moron.

To Sandra and Louis, Mazel Tov on finding your way to each other.  We wish you all good things. To Sandra, bravo.  You are an inspiration, and your actions will perhaps allow another woman in a similar situation, to be strong, walk away, and keep the faith.
