People who believe they have bad luck create bad luck. Those who believe they are very fortunate, that the world is a generous place filled with trustworthy people, live in exactly that kind of world.
Donβt blame yourself. You believed what he told you, because you trusted him. Youβre a warm, open, trusting person. And youβre trustworthy. Trustworthy people like us always get screwed, because we expect other people to be like us. Donβt let his bad behavior make you question yourself.
