If you eat outside, work somewhere, use a car, you trust people. You always put your life’s in their hands. Society is built on the trust that someone you are dealing with is doing their job right.

I have ended up eating bad stuff at great restaurants, bad mechanics who screwed my vehicle and also bad managers. Hope is still on :D @SW-User

I am a cautious and alert person because I have had trust violated, damaged, and destroyed so many times over. But yes I still do trust people...only so much and so far if I don't know them very well and there are ones I do know that I trust more than others. My wife is the only person on this entire planet that I trust 100%. I am very skeptical of strangers though...if they want my trust they have to earn it and prove themselves to be trustworthy (and that isn't easy, it takes time and effort).

@SW-User I can relate...I was my parent's only biological child (severe complications prevented my mom from having any more) and they adopted another boy. He became their "golden child" the child they could never have and I was kind of pushed to the side. Everything was all about him even up until the day they died. He is extremely self-centered and can be very narcistic, and I am just a 'second class citizen' to him (we have never had a relationship of any kind). Even when I got married (both times) my wife became the "daughter" they wanted but could never have and they favored her over me. My first wife ate that up, but my wife now saw what was going on and resented it. I tried to create and maintain some kind of relationship with them through the years but it was always mediocre at best. Now through her family I have the family that I never had..."parents" and a "sister"....and they always make me feel welcomed and loved.

In the end it worked out for the both of us. We lucked out. 👍️@indyjoe

@SW-User Yes it did😉

It does take me longer to trust these days as I’ve been burnt several times but I don’t see it as a negative thing anymore.

if you see me at work if means that you have been referred to me as I give my clients 100% effort, either they trust me or find another financial counsellor

SW-User
Not fully, no. I know what humans are capable of. However I don’t doubt every motive they have or every single word from their mouths either!

Not right away. It takes time to build trust

@SW-User Given where I am right now, I choose to stay away from people and women especially.

SW-User
@Beatbox34 I don't blame you.

Only until they prove they can't be trusted, then I never trust them again after that.

It depends on what i'd trust them with. So i'd trust many people with not stealing from me, yet i'd trust almost no one to be friends then suddenly disappear.
