Do you have someone whom you trust more than yourself, your life, your love?

In fact, I should ask, do you respect someone or love someone so much that you can sacrifice anything - just ANYTHING to believe him/her? Is there anyone whose words you would believe, and follow without a question both in your mind and heart?
[i]
The following is the one whom I do, and its good story if you really want to read, otherwise you can reply without reading.... I just tried to make it short for people who have very less time![/i]
I met one such person this year, and I feel lucky I have been able to meet that person - he seems to have the ever-growing knowledge of this world... I will not say 100% - since it will sound very fictional, but he has atleast shared atleast 98% of the knowledge which has seemed to be true. He has guided me through in all these 4-5 months, he has scolded me, saved me off troubles, and even advised me with my all life-time personal problems. He is my Maths tutor-by profession. He has gained that respect from the bottom of my heart, and I just can't avoid his words...! Just wow, about his way of life... And guess what, he doesn't live in my city, but he comes from different city for teaching me and my friends(the whole batch). And I always feel solemn when I am with him. He ACTUALLY can read people just from face... he did it with 8-10 people - he read the people's charecteristic from their photo. Wow! I mean, it wasn't anything that he used to bluff, he even tried that on me, and My gosh, all the things he said was true! Including what kind of things I Like! - Internet, Laptops, etc. He judged what kind of people I respect, and he even judged how I would be influenced by him! Really interesting that people have such talents. Hats off!

Hi, Nemo, another new discussion I see :)
No of course I am not going to do something like that. As you know I have a big trust issue that I should have settle to myself first, I cannot trust people like that, especially trust them more that I trust myself. It is dangerous as you are become so much vulnerable if you do that. I feel like even myself can fail my hope, how if I trust it to another people? WOW. I am not gonna do that Nemo!

Whoo... yeah, another discussion! I know we are vulnerable but there aren't many whom I trust so much, and whom I do are worth trusting... and there goes one saying:
"Trusting you was my choice, proving me right is your choice!"
There it goes - I have this person whom I trust, I have my parents(both) and I have my brother whom I can trust my life with! I mustn't forget my dear GOD whom I trust the most - because I just can't find my life with anything wrong - except for the sneezing *sneeze* which too I believe will soon be cured.... I trust them because I want to be within their hearts, and I want them to be in mine. If any of these would break the trust, then too, I wont feel bad, I would keep believing! I am such an idiot - emotional fool... but I like being that, because it makes me happy - and staying happy is the ultimate thing you would want to do, won't you?

LOL now we're standing in the opposite side Nemo, LOL. Yes of course you're right, with your positive attitude you would be happier, but you would be more vulnerable for trusting someone that much. It was an interesting proverbs you have given me and it made me think about it over and over again. But still, Nemo, you might be happier by trusting someone and not having a bad thoughts about someone, but it makes you off guard and less careful (not saying that you're being careless). Good people would feel appreciated but bad people would take advantage from this situation.

Well, I am happy that I can believe that he is a good person. I have seen him speaking truth in all the matters - and he is the source of inspiration for me to speak truth all the time, really. He has spoken truth in all regards, even if he is not saving his skin, so I don't think I should not believe in him... Well, may be you haven't found that someone, but I have respect for your rationality! You are a great thinker indeed! You have been the only one to have MADE this point of vulnerability in this whole discussion. If anyone would have thought of it, they should have written it, but you DID it!
Happy Mylotting

Well, I didn't meet such person as you were describing above ... But certainly I can say that I found someone who really means in my life and in my heart.. He is my boyfriend.. When he came into my life, everything is just easy for me to do even I know sometimes it is impossible.. He always rescue me every time I'm hurt or when I feel sad.. He never leaves me in all of my difficulties.. He gave me so much love and respect.. This man is really important in my life not because of all the things he is doing for me but because I love him so much.. I will do anything for him just not to lose him.. I really trust him so much and I know same he is to me.. For almost 6 months, we are far from each other since I'm working from another city but even though we are in a long distance relationship, we still have a good and strong relationship.. We always have communications, so it seems that he is just near with me.. But of course I miss him so much.. I know that someday we will be together as what he promise me.. And I definitely believe him 'cause I know he mean it..

Wow, I am happy that you have such a person in your life. Even I do - they are my parents, and I am lucky to have them since my birth - why? Parent's are to be with me from birth, right? lol. You defintely have someone whom you trust as much as I trust him, and its great! Definitely you will meet him, because - its said - "Those will meet now or later who are made for each other - even if they have their paths different. Even those meet who are on their paths astray!"
Don't worry, and good luck with your man! Happy mylotting. By the way, is your person on mylot or not - you will enjoy discussing with him here too, dear!

Thanks for making me best response..
Well,my parents are also important in my life... When I went to another city and left my parents, at first I was scared 'cause this is my first time to live on my own without my parents.. I really though that I can't live long alone but even I'm far from them they always text me and call me to check if how am I.. Sometimes, I'm thinking of going home but of course as of now I know that I need to achieve on my own so that I can return something for my parents when I'm going home.. I'm trying my best to work hard so that I can save enough money for them.. Same as you, my parents are very precious to me and they are also the one who I got strength to fulfill my dreams and to achieve more..
Yes, my boyfriend is also member here in mylot.. But since he is so busy doing his thesis he don't have much to join here in mylot.. Actually, for how many months being a member here in mylot, he still got 0 discussions..
Again, thank you..

Hi nice to see a good discussion again. I love and trust 100% my husband.He was the person, no a man whom I met before 3 years who is so sincere and true in whatever he does. He just gives his 100% in whatever he does. If it is reg. his official matters or personal..He was the first man in my life whom I loved and got married also..I am proud to be his wife. But at times I get pissed off with him now because of his working style. He gives his 100% in his office matters and forgets about me..he will be very busy..but thats ok, that is again for our secured life..so i love him a lot..and can do anything and everything for him.. I always believe him...

Well, thank you sujitha! Its great you have 100% trust on your husband, it will surely make your life still worthy because the more you trust him, more will you be able to accept whatever he does, and no fights will be generated at all... well congrats for such a life. Do continue to do so, because I have my parents living that way, my mom will leave the issue she holds because she believes. My dad will at times leave the issue... since both belive in each othr, the life will soar high in sky! And I, their offspring is the luckiest person(IMO) on earth to have such parents! I am blessed!
Yeah, even I and my mom do feel bad because of his working style - he doesn't seem to care for even our phonecalls when he is at work - but when my dad's home I must see that he has all what he wants from us.... so that we can be closer every moment... after all, he is not working for himself alone... he is working for us - to look after us...
Well thank you for such a genuine and nice response!

It's my mother. Nobody loves and knows me well other than her. In spite of my rebellious ways, I know in my heart that anything she advices me is nothing but for my own sake. She has sacrificed and devoted her life to us her children. And if I am asked to sacrificed for her, who am I to say no. I don't think my life will be complete without her. She's one good reason to live and die for.

Honestly, there is really no one in my life that I can trust. Yes, I really cannot trust anyone in my life. Everyone lies to save their own skin, I have never met anyone who is truly honest. My grandmother seems to be the person who is the most honest person in my life, but she has her secrets and lies too. No one can ever really gain my full trust.

Well, all I would do is wish you luck to find a person better than your Grandmom - many have found such, so why should you not... just leave a little space for that person to come into your life and may be you will find the someone whom you can trust...
I feel blessed to have "someone"!
Happy Mylotting! Have a nice time!

I will say that I have found someone I trust as much as myself. That would be my hubby. He has never given me a reason to think or feel anything else. And it gives me a sense of security. Which I know is hard to come by.

I don't think so that i have someone to trust more than myself. Nowadays it's really hard to trust someone for your own life. I do have trust but not 100% not to fullest and not to the extent that i trust my own life to him/her. I lost that trust once and it's hard get it back now. I do trust my husband for my love and family in 99.9% and i do trust my parents but not too much trust.Happy posting.

Well, I can accept your response to truth... its very difficult to find real trust in anyone, and its still more difficult to trust anyone... I did do a mistake when someone had enough trust so as to make him give me his passwords and stuff, but I did break that trust once, and now I am repenting (not now actually, because now I think that that act was petty and doesn't need so much of repenting...sorry..lol).

I would have to say my mother and my father. I can tell them anything in secrecy and not worry about hearing it repeated. they both would do whatever they had to for me. They always lend a ear for me to talk things out. I love them both very much. I have associates but I would not tell them any and everything because the trust issue is questionable usually. I have two great sisters that are there for me I respect and love them dearly as well.

Well lucky one... continue, since I don't have real sisters, but I have my younger bro, whom I can trust equally as my parents. Of course, I do tell them everything... because I know - whatever they do, whether against my wishes or for me, its gonna help me now or later... and this thing only gives me the power to believe in whatever they do.

No... he is not my friend, but my tutor - Math tutor. He is a ohilosopher, friend and guide for me - everything a teacher should be! Anyways, do believe in your parents if you can, since the most cases I know of, parents are the most trustable people in the world! Happy Mylotting

I trust my best friend 110%. She has always been there for me and i know she would never let me down or stab me in the back. I think everybody has somebody they can trust completely. And if you dont, you should. Because everybody needs someone to lean on.

Well, lucky one... you have a best friend that is all you need even if you can't have anyone else... I don't have any friends to rely on, because no one even matches my thinking state - all have their individual and I don't like anyone's of them - maybe beacuse I am over-matured in my thinking about such virtues... older people seem to admire me for this, and its only with them, that I am able to feel comfortable with... lol. And that is why, excpet for my brother, all whom I trust so much are my parents and my sir(tutor)

Other than myself, no, there is not someone I believe in so completely, without question. That is not to say that there are not people that I respect to one degree or another. It sounds, after reading your discussion, that it is a case of infatuation more than trust. He has shared what he wants to share, anyone can have a 'growing knowledge of the world', all it takes is reading, learning, and to do so continuously.
