Nothing. I don't trust people.

@Ducky Really? No one? Why?

@Renkon Let's just say I've been screwed over too many times.

@Ducky When you have your trust broken many times, it gets harder to trust anyone one anymore, isn't it so? But if you meet someone trustworthy finally, how will you be able to let them in?

@Renkon I don't. But I can live with that.

@Ducky Sorry to hear. I am guessing it will take someone something spectacular and special to gain you trust again. Don't give up.

@Renkon there are many such people who just do not know how to deal with people. They invariably pounce or jump on by assuming (blind trust) and expect the other to withstand and if they fall, they blame the other as untrustworthy.

@in10RjFox It means we have to keep our guard up and be cautious all the time. A sad state of the society, I guess.

@Renkon not consciously but subconsciously. Sad state has been created by many staying gaurd and shunning advances of people who approach. Many just hurt people unnecessarily by acting too smart. Thus many we see are in an irate state.
