6 Ways to Handle Backstabbing Friends

4. Don’t waste time

Once you get to know of the betrayal, don’t waste time thinking about the hows, whys and whats. Learn to let go and move on. There is no use crying over spilt milk, especially in a life so small as ours. You would only be harming yourself by thinking over and over about the betrayal and giving undue importance to the back stabbing ex friend.

5. Take note for the future

Although there is nothing good about losing a friend in such a way, remember that everything happens for a reason. This may have happened because you were too gullible, or gave way too much importance to the said friend. This would be a bitter but useful lesson to learn from so that you do not commit similar mistakes in the future.

6. Clear the air with others if they ask

As much as possible, try to forget the incident. However, if mutual friends ask for your version of the split, especially if your ex friend has already told them hers, then you should narrate about the back stabbing and defend your stance.
