Sadly there are very valid reasons not to trust people but we have to remember that not everyone is the same. So we can't say people in general because a few individuals showed us their true colors.

We live in a time when trust is nil. You have someone always beyond the corner trying to scam you. You have intimate partners betraying that trust with affairs. Companies looking for any legalese to say not withstanding for what they promised. It's actually all very disgusting, and why now? We, collectively as a society, created distrust and everyone lives in that world.

It's not you. It's human nature. There's still people out there that are trustworthy, but they are struggling to find each other.

You are very wise. Trust only your intuitions ( gut), verify everything else. 😉

What we choose to share is optional.

What "they" do with it involves trust.

Gotta work on flipping that coin.

Do you mean on the Internet where everybody is anonym?

Some people aren't trustworthy..

Hah, "trust" no.

It has to earnt...a small amount up front, but after that ...
