do you find it hard to trust people?

Oh yes, I am suspicious of everyone and everything someone does! I am hugely cynical about people and I have been let down so many times in the past, and people have used and abused me, I am extremely wary and I have a fortress around my heart with barbed wire around me. Around strangers I am very quiet and aloof, but once you get to know me, slowly, but slowly I will let the walls come down but it takes a long long time. Because of my past and how people have treated me I have vowed to stay single and never ever get involved in another relationship, it's safer that way, no one gets too close to me I won't let them. I know it sounds cold but at the end of the day I am protecting ME. Let people in and you are open to being used, manipulated and abused, no thanks! I do have close friends who understand me, probably more than I understand myself sometimes!

ya its very hard to trust on the peoples in this world......

Do I have trust issues. Well I don't think I trust you enough to tell you. :) Ha Ha I thought that was funny. I certainly do have problems trusting and when I finally do trust and you break that trust you most likely will never gain my trust again. Why? I was left on the sidewalk at age 5 along with my three other brothers to be picked up by the Children's Aid Societ while my parents drove. To make it worse we were split up and from that point until I as 18 I was only allowed to see my brothers one a year. I was also put into homes that only wanted me so they could claim the money for taking care of me, which they didn't. So I grew up very bitter and angry and took many years before I would trust people and even then I didn't really trust them. I have been married for 25 years and there are still things I would never trust to tell my wife.

Yes it's hard for me to trust people. I have tried to get close to people before and it never works out. They will lie, cheat, steal,or anything just for their happiness. I have been mistreated a lot by different people so now I'm distant from everyone.

now yes, particularly when it happened to you not only once but twice. mostly people only come to you to asked for help and after you have given them the favor they will just ignore you as if you have done anything wrong. sometimes i felt sorry for those people they will never feel having a true friends.

yes i do find it hard to trust people now because some people you trust often betrays you.

Yes, I do find it hard to trust people mostly because I have had so many people who I thought were friends stab me in the back and ruin any trust I had in them.

I do. I'm not exactly sure why. I trust my boyfriend but that's about it. I have been hurt in the past and i've made many friends who have turned out not to be my friends at all. I'm always very catious, i'm worried about getting hurt.

yes because trust is only thing ones lost,can't gain.i know my friends very good and what they think about their friends is not good.

yes fully trusting anybody is hard for me......

I do not find it hard to trust someone. There are some people that I meet that I distrust onsite. Others, I trust right away. You can tell a lot by looking into someones eyes when they talk to you. I get a feeling, and I seem to know right off it that person is a good, decent person. I also understand that everyone can make a mistake, that does not mean they intentionally broke the trust that is there. I am 42 years old, and so far, I have not been let down. I trusted my husband the first time I met him, we have been married now for 25 years.

I try really hard to trust people, but somehow I always end up being stab in the back by them. I that is not fun. For eks. I only have one friend left from when I went to school.

yes truting is a big issue and you can't blindly trust ay one

i used to distrust people. but i realized then that not trusting them is much like not trusting myself on how i should relate to them. i have to relate to people so that i know who i'm going to trust and who i won't give in to.

yes i do. Because you can't know from their appearance ,don't know what do they want from me. Time will show the real habit that they are nice or bad.
