Being betrayed Quote by Eugene Nathaniel Butler

“Sometimes it's not that you just did something wrong or that you did it on purpose, for those wounds are just paper cuts, but the fact you didn't think of how the person you say you love or care about would feel before you acted, may be a wound so deep it may never truly heal.” quote by Eugene Nathaniel Butler
