Whilst working at one of my part time jobs, a ran into a couple that looked stunningly familiar. When the male of the two caught my eye, we both stammered for a moment, frowned in concentration, and said almost simultaneously…”you look familiar.” And so we discovered our connection—he was and is friends with my last ex.

It was great to see him and his ex, but the volcano that started to erupt in me when speaking of my ex…who has since married the girl he dated before me and had a baby with her…and so I realize I have serious trust and forgiveness issues, still unresolved from years ago. How do you forgive someone who stole thousands of dollars and promised to pay it back but not? How do you forgive someone who basically wasted two years of your life? How do you forgive someone who refused to treat me the way I should be treated? How do I forgive myself for letting him?

And more importantly, how do I move on so I can trust again?
