I'm going to attempt to be as rational as humanly possible.
I don't really want to talk about the subject but I would, however, like to express some of what I'm feeling because it's 5:46AM and I've given up on getting some sleep tonight (this morning, rather).

I'm a very trusting person. I tend to trust people until given a reason not to trust them anymore. But, like many other people, when I find out that I've been lied to or that I've entrusted someone with something that was not fully appreciated, naturally it's upsetting.

This leads me to now. I'm literally shaking and despite being wrapped in multiple blankets still feel cold. I'm fairly prone to shock, so clearly I don't handle mistrust well (don't worry, I'm a registered first aider with 15 years of Guiding experience).

Again, I don't really feel like reliving the tale or anything like that, so please don't ask, but I feel better getting this into the world. Currently I'm writing this as a Facebook note, but I'm gonna slip in to my DA instead. Facebook just leads to gossip. But I do feel that I need to get this into the world. For whatever reason, it makes me feel like I'm being heard.
