See, I am the exact opposite. I believe people are basically out for themselves and would do whatever they have to in order to make their life better, etc. My parents always taught me never to trust anyone, because you will get hurt. In this they were accurate.
I have never really completely trusted anyone till my T.
Most people have told me that I am not nice.......I have a horrible temper and when picked on, get very cranky and nasty with verbal remarks. Not with anyone of you here, so no concerns.......lol.
I'm sorry you keep getting hurt, Carrie. People will do it every chance they can I learned.
Course my way of thinking keeps me alone, so who knows which is the right way?
