Why do people trust others so easily?

So why is it that after some people get screwed over more than one once they trust them again so easily? I don't understand.
They're foolish enough to believe people change. People don't change, they merely find a new way to lie.

They want to believe that they CAN trust someone, that someone is nice, someone is their friend, someone is that person who they can admire, or love, or something..

Too many people make this too hard..

Because people these days easily believe liars but can't believe someone who tells them the truth, they've been conditioned to believe lies by media and school and government.

I trust just about everyone I meet but, I never let them take advantage...I don't ever get screwed over...trusting doesn't mean leaving yourself vulnerable

I wanna believe that people are good. I want people to be their best and I think most people have some good in them.

Maybe I'm a sucker :/

Well I don't know about other people but I tend to have way too much faith in humanity.

It feels good to trust someone. This actually relates to your question about children! There are all these instincts and patterns, ways of being that just feel good and natural to many people even if they don't make sense - like trusting people even after being hurt, or having children when the world is overpopulated with humans already.
I don't know. Maybe they're punishing themselves.

takes time to make them let go of their optimism

It's a constant thing that seems to spin around and around...insanity. Even if we get hurt, there's something that brings us back. Sometimes what we crave is absolutely unhealthy, like the food we eat everyday, but we eat it anyway.

Cause you want to give people the benefit of the doubt. But sometimes they screw you over and you learn the hard way.
Maybe. They may also assume that most people can actually be trusted .@DevastatinglyGorgeous:

@Iamnolongerhere: I was raised to be a good person. But I found out the hard way that some people are just assholes. Never again..

Some lessons are hard to learn. We all want to trust, so we take the chance and sometimes we get screwed, it's just a part of life.
after a while, you get used to being screwed over.., not a virgin anymore in ups and downs of life
