I can understand it being hard to trust people after that experience. If you can, try to step back and remember that not everyone hurts you, in fact most people don't. There is a risk involved when you trust people, and I can't deny that, but if you don't trust people then you can know for sure that you will be hurt, because we need people in our lives. Even though past experience tends to top the scales in the direction of not trusting people, I don't think the safety could ever be worth the isolation and lack of support and all that you would miss out on. Think of all your friends who have not hurt you.
