It would be a great world if you could rely on others to always have your best interests at heart.
I think attachment to this ideal probably speaks to a desire to have faith in humanity.
So it can feel hurtful when others prioritize their agenda over your wellbeing but maybe it should be downgraded from a betrayal to a sad realization that we don’t live in a perfect world and it would be amazing to have others looking out for you, but you need to be your own biggest protector.
