Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. The suffering and grief that accompanies betrayal is insurmountable, and cannot be compared to anything else. It's not solely a loss, which the normal grieving process can follow. The confusion, disrespect, and denial that blossoms with betrayal take us down a completely different trajectory of understanding, coping, and healing. Betrayal dismantles the reality in which you live in, rather than shaking it. It implodes, giving the victim almost no source of comfort in its darkness. Sometimes ignorance really is bliss; like Oedipus, we may prefer to make ourselves blind, rather than deal with the truth.
The balancing act of normal functioning while dealing with betrayal is nothing more than the tragic clown motif trying to make the children laugh. In this Reddit thread, it centers around a man who's experiencing more than one betrayal at once. Not only does he have to deal with his wife's death, but also the nascent news of her infidelity, as well as his child not being biologically his. But you'll have to read the full story below for all the juicy details.
