A few weeks ago on LJ’s Writer’s Block, the question was asked, “Do you think people deserve second chances?”
Here’s my honest answer: Technically, yes, but i’ve always found this saying true: “Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.”
How would you answer this question?

I have always been one to forget why I should not give a person a second chance and wind up doing it anyway. In the end, I am reminded why the person didn’t deserve another chance as well as feeling worse about myself than before.

Yes, but one laden with healthy skepticism on your part! Once trust is broken it has to be earned back. Allegedly.
I agree that we often treat others how to treat us..when I’ve been hurt I ask myself if there’s a pattern with that particular person, and I often find that there is. It’s healthier for me to just focus my energy on other areas of my life and not dwell on things because I realize it’s the other person’s issues, not mine.
