How long you get to know friends for trusting them?

WEll i only have one friend that i consider most. I trust him and he trust me back. Our frienshp has tested thru thick and thin. With other frinds are just a so-called friend.

hi, actually we cant really say that are friend who only we know for how many days that we can trust them,for me it will take for how many months until i will know the attitude he/she have so that i could know if i can trust that person.

Personally sometimes, this is the chance you have to take. When you are out there in the real world, you will encounter many different types of people. Many times you will have ones who will try to be your friend, and then end up being the type you wish you never would have met. Many times it makes it hard to want to try and accept someone new in your life, and be able to trust them. But the thing is to learn not to be so Trusting when first meeting someone while still being open to the thought of letting a True friendship develop there as well.

I would say you should get to know someone before trusting them. In this age and time things are so evil, some refuse to live by the laws and rules, some like to manipulate and run over people. Some just don't have a heart or conscience they are out to please only themselves. Trusting another one without knowing that person has become a thing that a person has to give careful consideration too.

Good day Omchesunche, With regards to your topic discussion, now a days, it is not that easy to trust anybody. As the number of people who tends to cheat towards others increases. However, though they are increasing, I believe that there are still few people who have a good heart and good traits. Thus, the best thing to do is to be careful in starting a friendly relationship. As you can never tell who among your friends can go far with you. As you can see, all of them are nice. And, as the saying goes, all people are nice and kind, but, it depends on their level - as some are just nice and kind when you are in your best but will leave you and never be with you when you are at your worst. Try to weigh the level of friendship that you will give to each and everyone. Dont give it all. Save something for yourself. So you will not feel much pain at the end whenever your friend cannot go far with you. Anyway, you have a nice topic. Have a great day ahead.

There are different types of friends that you can have: fair weather friend, friend for benefits, laissez-faire friend, friend for no reason and the - real friend. As you go along with these kind of people, it will take some time for you to decide to whom you should give your trust. Time is not a guarantee to help you determine the right person to trust. There are long time friend that can't be trusted. They are just simply a friend. But, if you're looking for a trust worthy friend, that's a different story. There are some situations that will help you find the trusted one and it will surely take time. Downs, trials and obstacles, may in what form can be a great way of filtering people whom to trust. Some say that their instincts help them in trusting friends. Well, we have different versions amongst us and I think you, yourself will figure it out also. Try to spend some time with your friends and observe them, perhaps you may find someone worthy to be a confidant.

It is really hard to find a real friend at this time. A friend of mine which is a priest told me that the only friend and a best friend we have is named Jesus. Because He never leave and cheat us. In this world we are always longing for a friend's care and love but we always have worries about the faithfulness. Most of the time friends that we treasure and trusted sometimes fight back us and stab us at the back. So we are always in doubt of friends characteristics. But if we give respect to each others i believe that we gain respect from our friends. lets try to give them respect first so that we will know and we will build trust. Respect and trust will follow.

Hi Om. I am also selective when it comes to friends. In fact, i dont have too many friends, i have kept them to less than 10 and they are all quality friends.

Time is not really a way to test friends if they can be trusted. I use my own intuition. Sometimes we have this kind of feeling towards a person even if he.she is close or sharing with some good time with us. I just use my intuition if I have to or not to trust a friend and most of the time, my intuition never fails me.

I think there's no really a "standard" when it comes to trusting your friend. I know some people that I've only known for some time but I consider them as friends. Yet there are some people as well that I have known for a very long time know and I know I can really trust on them. These are the moments that you would only have to trust your own judgement. Remember, looks can be very deceiving. You may look at a person and would feel uneasy, but actually that's the same person that may turn out to be your best-est friend. Or, you may like being around a certain someone but actually that person, will run away when you are in trouble. It's not really about the looks, nor the way they interact with other people. Just like you, there are a lot out there that worries about trusting other people. I say, just deal with it. Let's say you meet someone and you're thinking twice about trusting that person. Then do your best to get to know the person. When you're comfortable, try to let that person get to know you as well. That's how it works most of the time. Learn how to relax and let other people get in to you, yet save some for yourself. You will see in the end that it was all worth it. I'm not saying this will work all the time, because you have to understand as well that there are really some people in this world that do no know how to be good to others.. If this happens to you, that's okay! There's a lot out there that you haven't met and are willing to be your friend. Just be open to anything that can happen, until you met the real people who you can call as your true friends.

I don't use time as factor to decide if someone is really my friend or not. I always use my intuition to trust or not in someone. But, for me, is pretty tough to trust in anyone. I have to say that the only person that I fully trust is my mom. The others persons I can trust 90%, but there are always something telling me that I should not trust fully on them.

I agree with the first response, in that it is certainly not a question of time which can tell you whether you can trust a friend or not. The only way that you can see if you can trust a friend is firstly by judging your instincts - often if you have a bad feeling in your gut about someone, or you just feel as if they aren't trustworthy for whatever reason, you will be right! Otherwise you have to judge a friend's trustworthiness by their actions. Look at how they act around you and also how they act around others - those that are trustworthy will be honorable and honest in all that they do.

I'm the type who easily trusts a person. I wonder why.. After a few days or hours or even a few minutes, i become close to them. I don't judge them right away but I test their behavior and personality. When I was in elementary, I had a best friend, she either always ask me for some spare money or ask me to treat her maybe because my mom always gave me more than enough for my allowance. I don't know If I was just dumb or innocent but after that I realized that I was just like a bank for her, giving her money and everything. After that, I never contacted her again.
