Book excerpt: Betrayal in friendships can take many forms, and it often stems from a place of envy or jealousy. Perhaps your friend is envious of your success, your relationship, or your marriage. Instead of celebrating your achievements, they may feel threatened by them and resort to underhanded tactics to bring you down. One of the key signs of betrayal in a friendship is when your friend starts to exhibit behaviors that are out of character. They may become overly critical of you, constantly belittle your accomplishments, or even spread rumors behind your back. These actions stem from their own insecurities and feelings of inadequacy, which they project onto you in an attempt to level the playing field. Another red flag to watch out for is when your friend starts to distance themselves from you without any valid reason. They may become elusive, avoid spending time with you, or suddenly become too busy to meet up. This could be a sign that they are trying to create space between you so that they can carry out their betrayal without arousing suspicion. Furthermore, pay attention to how your friend reacts to your successes and failures.
