Trust issues

It's so difficult to trust. And it always seems that when you finally do, that's when you shouldn't have trusted. And lies. Why does it seem everyone just lies to my face? I just don't see the point in a false compliment.

i dont understand it either.

I have trust issues and I get so mad when I am lied to. I am a crappy liar so I don't even try but being that person who doesn't and can't lie makes being lied to even harder. I find that trusting someone starts with knowing they aren't lying. I know they intertwine and it is hard to trust when you know they lie. I don't see the point in lying I feel like it makes things so much harder.

I don't know...we're asking someone to take care with how the handle us and letting ourselves be vulnerable. That can be a tall order for a lot of people. Perhaps, that's why t seems that many people drop the ball and turn out to be people we shouldn't have trusted. It seems that once trust is given they just don't know what to do with it.

I'm so sorry that you have to deal with lies. I know how painful that can be. We lie for many reasons I suppose, but good reason or not, it doesn't make it any easier when you're the one being lied too.

I agree. I lost the ability to trust very many people after high school when everyone was pretending to be my friend but stabbed me in the back at the first possible second. Or was my friend when they needed something but not when I needed something.

I trust my husband, my parents and my brother, and that's it.

i also agree. Trust can be a tricky issue. I have some abandonment issues so trusting for me can also be hard. Im always afraid to let people in cause theylle probably just leave. Almost everyone else has. At the same time i find its best this way. Im usually better off without those people. Of course it doesnt change how much having your trust broken hurts.
