Can you trust others?

Are you the kind of person who can blindly trust others or you're more on the suspicious side? Does it take a long time to you to trust another person or you just give all your friendship to them, eventually risking a betrayal later?
For example, if a person you know comes to you and says he spent the weekend at home with a flu, and you called him earlier to go out, but he said he couldn't for this reason, can you believe his story? Or do you think he's a liar? If someome you don't know starts talking about his private life, do you trust anything he says, or do you think he's using his imagination to tell you false things, to appear different?

I usually don't trust everybody. It takes me some time to believe othersì words. It depends. From the tone of the voice or from gestures, I try to understand if the person is telling the truth or not. Some other times it is difficult to tell, because the person is mixing lies and reality so much, to be convinced that lies is reality and that reality is a lie. In this case, when even the person is not sure about it, I find difficult to tell, but I act automatically suspicious as a defense. On the Internet is even more difficult, because most of the times you can only read people's opinions or stories. You have to be patient and pay attention to what people say in order to avoid disappointment later.

It takes a long time for me to trust anyone completely. Trust is something that has to be earned not just given out freely.

It doesn't take much to earn my trust. I am very friendly towards new people. If someone happens to betray me or piss me off in some way, good luck to you trying to get my trust back.

I'd say I probably trust too easily to a fault, but after i've learned that someone is un-trustworthy I don't usually ever gain complete faith in them again (like if someone lied about something they were responsible to do and didn't carry through on it, etc).

But I usually don't have a hard time trusting certain people if I have no past experiences with them to make me do otherwise.

I have trouble trusting anyone at first, I've been hurt a lot in the past, especially by girls, and it's difficult for me to completely trust and feel comfortable with people. About the only person in RL that I truly trust at this point is my gf.

I trust peop,e way too much, and am very gulable. It's not hard to get trust from me, i'm just too nice that way, and in the end, people walk all over me because i have this terrible trust problem, having confidence in others and faith that people have the ability to be kind.

I trust everyone until thye do something to make me think differently about them. I can usually tell when some people are lieing, but I usually dont make a big deal about it unless it is just that important. Im really trust worthy, and maybe just really gulable at times too.

Question

I do trust people and some poeple take advantage of me! Like borrowing money and not paying it back and stuff but it's also because I'm not confident enough to say anything!

I like to think people are genuine with me but if they start talking crap I dont believe them, like if I start talking to a guy in the pub and he tells me he's done loads of amazing things, like he's a stunt double for a celeb or he's got loads of money (definitly not true in my area!) then I'll know! I can normally tell if someone's talking s***!

Sorry what was the question.....

Oh yeh so um.. I'm Trusting! (but I have a small suspicious side!)

Trust

At first it seemed I could trust anyone. I thought if you were kind, you could be a good person and someone I could rely on. I didnt think you would say anything behind my back in other words. But lately my friends havent been showing me that. More and more they have secrets between them and never tell me. Not that im nosy or anything , I just want to feel included in the group convo. I feel lonely and I dont like that feeling. I try to make new friends but its hard cuz Ive been friends with these people all my life. They never call me anymore and when I call them they have things to do. Plus when I try to talk to them about feeling "left out" , they say im overreacting and won't listen. So anyways to the point, now trusting people for me takes a while. All that matters is having people that respect me for me and can trust me also.

I can trust others, but for some reason, I have the talent of knowing when someone is lying. I understand this from their eyes, their moves, and unfortunately, it rarely happens that my impressions are wrong. For some reason, I not always reveal this kind of impressions. I keep them for myself, as an advantage, or to give a second chance.

I try to know in advance if people can be trusted, I have my opinion ready about people but never let it show to them so I tread them all the same...I just don't give the people who I have a dodgy feeling about from the start the change to betray my trust and they'll never know it. Some people have betrayed my trust in the past no big deal I'm a forgiving person to my peers but I won't give them the change to do it again.

I trust only people I know well enough to understand when they're sincere or not. In other cases, I'm very suspicious of others' intentions and I don't usually give all my friendship to strangers or to people I've just met.

I can accept the responsibility of having other people's trust. I hope that I never double crossed any one (Out side of some video games ) And I think in return I find it easy to trust other people with little things. Like lending money out. I have paid back every dime I have borrowed from friends (Which is not a lot). But I have lent out a lot of money to never see it again.

I can certainly trust my mother and father for just about anything important. I think people find it hard to trust others after their first bad experience no matter how many good experiences came before.

If someone can go through life not giving their trust to any one and still succeed they know something a lot of people don't. I think that no matter how many bad experiences you go through you still should be able to trust people. Because if others can take advantage of something that important and still feel good they deserve to go to hell.

No, I don't trust others. I have all the reasons to not trust others, I think. It's not simply that I'm not a friendly person. It's that I try to understand them, and I usually end being disappointed once they show their personality. I just can't sit down and talk to them like if they were the best persons in the world to me, if they did something wrong. I know, this means I'm unforgiving. Trusting people is a complex mechanism and it easily breaks. It takes me a long time to become "friend" of someone, and it doesn't take as much time to make me lose all my interest in a person, if he/she lies to me, or if he/she behaves in a way I cannot accept. I still can talk to them or hang out with them, if they did a little mistake, but I won't trust them anymore.
