deathpixie[Error: unknown template qotd]I used to think I was a good judge of character, but unfortunately experience has proven otherwise. I still do put my faith in the goodness of people - I can't operate in this world otherwise - but I've taken some knocks, I have to admit.
The last time I was completely wrong, I have the small consolation in knowing I wasn't the only one fooled. A good friend turned out to have been deceiving and using me (as well as all of his other friends), for a period of years. It was a gut punch, knowing that my faith had been so badly placed, and that everything I'd done and said for this person was disregarded and, what is worse, they were probably laughing at my gullibility. It's been a long time trying to learn to trust my judgement again, but I have to keep reminding myself, there's plenty of good people out there.
