when do you know that you can fully trust someone with your deepest thoughts, fears, dreams and wishes.
always
sometimes
case by case
almost never
never
this disclosure has a direct correlation with trusting that individual and being close to that individual. so, how come, somebody who makes that trust get created in the development of a relationship, destroys it instead of building on it?
share your thoughts on this, if you like.

Re: trust and absolute closeness
I personally think that trust is similar to imaan. It goes up and down. It may be at a certain level for awhile or for a long time and the next moment might increase/decrease due to thoughts or actions of another person. It is best to test someone before trusting him rather than relying entirely on Allah which is similar to sitting at home all day without doing anything and waiting for Allah to provide you with food from sky.
