When do you know you can trust someone?

Re: When do you know you can trust someone?

You can't be closer to Allah if you don't trust anyone.

The success in life comes when you know the art of balancing intimidation and persecution to ZERO. Just like the Royal Guards in London who don't show a smile or anger what ever u do in front of them.

Re: When do you know you can trust someone?

When you realize deep within you that NO matter what happens, you WILL be fine, you WILL live, that you can handle being hurt and take care of yourself when you are hurt, when you're not dependent on others to make you feel safe or happy.

That obviously goes without saying that I wouldn't go out in a lonely, dark alleyway at 2am, because I can handle being raped/molested/mugged/murdered. Being cautious is good. Being neurotic is very, very harmful to your happiness and mental health.

i guess if you're an optimist then you would put all your trust into a friend

the only best best friend i have is my mother, i put all my trust in her
all other friends are companions but not to that level

Gosh... I wish I knew the answer to this!

Re: When do you know you can trust someone?

for me atleast, yea, i got back stabbed a couple times by a few that i was very intensely close to and trusted/loved

Re: When do you know you can trust someone?

I think that is the case for maybe quite afew people on here.

The loss of trust between two or several people is enough for someone not put their trust into anyone from then on.

Re: When do you know you can trust someone?

no for me i need to still have that trust in my friends. just b/c i came across one or two bad apples and put all my total trust in them doesn't mean that i should be entirely guarded and not feel any emotional attachment to people from now on. get close to people slowly and hope they are decent enough not to hurt you
