Hi crazedmuch......I would have to agree with Pose123 she said it right on. It is a hard thing to do esp when you have been burned. I hope that all turns out for you. Best wishes Stacy

I am sad to hear that you've never learned to trust anyone until now and that's mainly because, as you have said, you prefer to be alone hence you feel lonely. I suggest you try to go out and meet other people. No man is an island and we all need to interact with others especially with friends. Going out will make your life more meaningful and exciting especially when you're in a good circle of friends. As to learning how to trust, basing on my own experience, you need time in knowing that person better and only then you'll know if he's trustworhty enough. Remember that trust just like respect is earned over time, it just doesn't grow overnight. Goodluck!

We have to admit anyone is not isolated in the society, so I think you should learn to trust others. If you are so indluged in your own world that you could not have good harmony with people around us. As the matter of fact, trusting someone does not mean that you will be taken advantage by them or tricked by them. It is not the same concept. For example, some wise people always prefer to listen and accept different ideas, but they seldom are cheated and controlled by false ideas. I think wether you will be tricked is up to you. If you are wise and independ enough that nobody could cheat you.

Hi crazedmuch, You should learn to trust someone or you will always be very lonely. Sure, sometimes we get hurt, but that's a part of life, and we learn and grow from our experiences. Blessings.

hi crazedmuch. i am notgetting as to why you dont trust people.is it that you had been betrayed by anyone?what made you think so.i guess every one in this world needs to trust at least 2-3 people.first of course parents and then a friend of yours.dont you have best friend?to learn to trust someone you need to find a person with whom whenever you are you get positive vibes.that is the person with whom can share your feelings.well the old proverb goes that without falling one can never learn to walk.so try to confess yourself to someone,might be once or twice you can be failure but then you will be able to find the right trustworthy person for yourself.

I don't believe you can "learn" to trust something. First you have to overcome the reasons you don't trust people. Why is it that you feel that no one is to be trusted? Maybe going to a counsler would help you figure that out. Once you've learned the reasons, you can start to heal. Once that happens, I believe if you meet people who you feel are good, honest people, you will begin to let go of the fear you have now. It's a hard process, but I think if you really want to change, you can. Good luck!

hi xreesex :) i want to share this with you. i met someone who i really think i can trust, but then i still felt uneasy. so i decided not to be with that person. and now not a day in my life that i dont regret that decision, i just dont know how to start. maybe seeing a counselor is the best choice. thanks anyway! :)
