Betrayal and revenge

Betrayal occurs when someone breaks an trust or loyalty, hurting another’s expectations or feelings. Revenge is a response to that betrayal, where the harmed person seeks to retaliate or undo the wrong, often through actions intended to cause pain or imbalance. Both concepts involve deep emotions, such as hurt, anger, and disappointment. While betrayal damages relationships by violating trust, revenge can perpetuate a cycle of harm by retaliating against it. Understanding these feelings helps in managing conflicts and fostering forgiveness or justice rather than destructive reactions.
