There is a particular kind of disappointment that sticks with you longer than most. It is not always the loudest betrayal. It is not always the most dramatic falling out. Sometimes it is something much simpler. Someone you considered a friend hears an accusation, hears a rumor, hears a misunderstanding, and instead of coming to you and asking what happened, they immediately decide you are guilty.
