When someone says "trust me".. do you give that person the benefit of the doubt or do you feel like it's a sign he or she probably can't be trusted?

That term is used as a slang when I hear it. I do hope that the other person can be trusted, though!

I tend to not trust people anyways so it wouldnt change my opinion at all. People have to earn trust with me Ive been screwed over way too many times to just be silly and trust someone because they say I should.

It really depends on the person, so I suppose actual words don't have much impact. I tell my four year old daughter to trust me if I'm trying to teach her something new like a swimming or climbing challenge. I KNOW that I can be trusted in that case, so from her point of view, it is a sign of true trustworthiness when it's me saying it. However, when I read about the latest way to make a million zillion dollars online while in my pajamas, and the writer says "Trust me, it's guaranteed!", I tend to be a little suspicious ... lol!

Isn't that the truth? Good thing they've used the "trust me" line one too many times!

well for me, it depends on a person who said the words..if i know i can trust him..i do..but if i'm uncertain in him then probably i doubt him for saying these words..it's hard to trust people these days..you have to be careful..you don't know who to trust for..people are very unpredictable now..i think. :)
