A close friend of mine never trust me. He doesn't trust anybody and asking many doubts . Always I tell him to trust atleast me, but he doesn't. I dont understand why he is like that. I tell him that no one is going to cheat you and there is no reason for some one to cheat you. Till now there is no change in him and I am thinking of avoiding him. Instead of trying to bring change in him it is better to avoid him. What do you say?

Maybe there are reasons why he loses trust with anybody. All people in the world have somebody whom they trusted there lives with. Maybe somebody did something wrong with him, or there must be incidents in his life that made him traumatize. Instead of avoiding him, why dont you try to explore more on him, maybe he needed friends and somebody to talk with. If he did not trust you, make him feel that you are worth it to be trusted.

It is really annoying in this situation,especially someone who we think is a very close friend.I think it has something to do with his childhood and the situation under which he grew up.I don't think it's a good idea to choose avoiding him. As I can see the you want to help him. I think you can just keep helping him and answering all his doubts as you used to,he will realize that you are the reliable friend someday. If you choose to avoid him so sudden,it's no good to both you and him.

Have u every done something which betrayed him or something like that? Even though some else made a circumvention on u. When i was in my college my bestie and I was betrayed by another friend, and the friend has told something bad to my bestie that I betrayed her, then although I have explained so much to her, she can never be trusted on me anymore, I was so sad. But I think time is a good madicine for this, after these years, we forgave each other, maybe because we r in distance and not that best anymore, we still like each other and respect each other. So I think if u wanna him to trust u, don't let him be betrayed, even it is one time, never, don't. If there exists some misunderstanding, be sure to make a clarification. Good luck! Hope u'll get well soon.

There are people who find it hard to trust anybody because of some bad experience they had before. I guess they need some help to make them let it loose and starts trusting people. Distrustful person is no different from pessimistic and who always thinks everything will be a failure. I don't think they can even trust themselves.too!

What do you mean by "never trust me" exactly? Have you ever had some private convesations, about family memebers, dreams, expected life partners and past experiences etc? If so, I think he does somehow trust you. Maybe he just want to keep some own secrets. So just be more patient to him if you still consider him as a close friend.

I think people are this way have perhaps been cheated by others. That they probably at one time trusted someone or a few people and were wronged. It would be hard for them to open up and trust others if this has happened many times. Hopefully in time your friend will come to see that he can trust you. Just try not to give him any reason to doubt.
