I'd probably kinda bleed to death on the senate floor..yeah, that would probably be my first and only action...yeah..

...Bardock...........lol


But if you lived??

How would you take a stab in the back by one of your beloved or one that you thought were?

Why should Caesar get to stomp around like a giant, while the rest of us try not to get smushed under his big feet? What's so great about Caesar? Hm? Brutus is just as cute as Caesar. Brutus is just as smart as Caesar. People totally like Brutus just as much as they like Caesar. And when did it become okay for one person to be the boss of everybody, huh? Because that's not what Rome is about. We should totally just stab Caesar!

Whether Caesar actually said such words is debatable. Still this occurred at the cusp of the Republics death (in truth it had been in danger for a long while, men like Crassus, Sulla, Pompey etc had put it on such a road with their autocratic nature long before.) The Romans where, at this point, big on honor and family and all that. If I was Caesar, and I survived, somehow I don't think my relationship with Brutus would be repaired. In fact I dare say I would seek vengeance of the most terrible kind if he couldn't give me a good reason for his actions. And if he could well, for the sake of the friendship I'd allow him to commit honorable suicide.

If this is just about being betrayed by friends in general - well for me it depends on the nature of the betrayal, and the ability of the betrayer to justify it. I am choosy with my friends, and I would have no time for them if they betrayed me. I get can make new friends, the ones who betrayed me with out cause sacrificed any right to claim to be friends. And if it was serious enough, well... I dislike being in any sort of debt to another, or feeling like someone has put something over me. Revenge!

What I mean is..........has anybody ever been stabbed in the back by anyone you would least expect???

Are my communication skills that bad???

I think the prudent thing to do would be to stab Brutus, roll him up in a carpet and throw him off a bridge.

^^ Wish I could use those special pics like you........haha

What If I was Ceaser?? And I was a nice person...........

What would you do to Brutus debbs. Let's keep it clean now.

Honest now,...........If you had someone very special, someone you even knew didn't know what they were doing............what would you do?

Could it be like they say "Hard love?".............

That falls under their reasoning. I am forgiving. If they were ignorant they were committing a betrayal, that is inadvertently inserting a dagger in my back (though I think Brutus honored Caesar by stabbing him in the front) then I might be able to understand and forgive, if lament in their ignorance. After all, Brutus was not seeing his actions as betraying Caesar, but rather remaining loyal to the republic - which is where every Romans true allegiance was meant to be. He thought he was doing the right thing.

However if it was fully knowing, without good reason, then that is it for them. Especially if it is a stab in the back. If you wish to betray me, then do it to my face. After all, the difference between a friend and an enemy is that a friend will stab you in the front.

As to the other question - no, I have never been betrayed by someone I was close to or a friend. Maybe I have been lucky, maybe a situation has never arising to test their loyalty - personally my ego likes to think it is because I inspire loyalty and people know that it is better to be with me, then against me, that there is no way a "betrayal" will give them anything better then they have now.

cry the pop a cap in my ass?

Hmmmmmmmmmm........What if he was misinformed, what if he was???........just a question......You you still feel the same why on what he did?

I can say with some confidence that that couldn't happen to me. I'm an excellent judge of people. They'd have to be a really good liar.
