Hey all. Well, without beating around the bush. Trust has always been a issue for me and it will always be. Once you have broken my trust, its tickets. I hate being lied to, worse of all I hate being cheated on. I'm not special and don't expect special treatment. I cannot even try to understand all of what happened this past few years. I hate hypocrites. All I want is honesty. That's too much to ask, I guess. What's your take on my tantrum?

hey there, saphy! good to see you again....it's been a long time, i almost forgot when's the last time we had seen each other... anyways, trust? you can't have it all unless people trust too much. sometimes we can do things we don't know people might get hurt and by this, they tend to lie, for us not to feel hurt or so. but then, in time, you can notice that they are doing it obviously. that you can't help it anymore. that's why it's better to talk things through when the problem is small, when it gets big, bigger pain will be felt more. do you agree?

Hi sweetie. Thank you, good to see you again as well. I will try to pop in as much as possible. I agree with you, people tend to make a habit of lying which can get out of control. Wonder if they can be helped eventually. But hurting those who trust you so much, i need to work on that one.

well, i hope to see you more then! you know, there's a saying that you have to be good at memorizing when you always lie. but if you are true to yourself and to people around you, you don't have to memorize anything at all. some people lie to cover up something but then after that lie, they will soon add things to it, then another and another...which makes it look like they are living their whole life with a big LIE! tendency is that they can't find happiness and true friendship or even relationships...

First , it isn't a tantrum. Second, you have a right to feel the way you feel. And Third, I agree with you . Once a liar always a liar I say. Once I know I can't trust a person I Never trust them!

Hi sweetie. Good to see you again. I guess i need to change and see things from their perspective or start thinking like them. Honestly, it seems like a gruesome task for me.

Hi Saphy! You are right that trust is the most important thing in our life. No body wants to be cheated and treated with contempt. Once anybody has broken our trust, we just can not rely on that person again. We keep coming across such people in our life who deceive us (without we even realizing it at the time of deception). Sometimes we get the realization too late to handle. All the best to you.

You are hurting so badley right now and I wisgh that I could make the pain go away. But I can't. Broken trust can take so long to repair and for some people it can never be repaired or forgotten or forgiven. I am so sorry for yiur pain as I can just feel it through your words. I wish to God that you will soon get through this bad time. Many blessings

I'm such a horrible friend. I can kick myself for forgetting about your surgery. We will take your sister for a night out, I guess. Just for the hell of it... Don't worry about me, just make sure you get better.

If you are still single,you still have the chance to look for someone else who'll be honest to at all times.It's just quite hard to find one though.Some people can't just be honest.I don't know why.They don't want to tell evrything they've been going through.They don't update us with their activities and instead,they tell us something else and we'll find out that they're lying to us sometimes.My husband sometimes lies to me.I also want him to tell me the truth because I'm sure that I'll also know the truth.

I don't know his intention why is he lying to me sometimes.Maybe he's afraid of me because I'm a bit strict.Maybe, he's trying to protect me or my feelings, etc.So I am sometimes doubtful if he's telling me the truth or not.He can't blame me for that.I sometimes lost my trust to him but I always tell myself that I should trust him because he's my life-time partner.What I do is to confirm what he has said to my son.My son can't lie to me.LOL.I hope people around you will be honest too.Thanks for sharing.

I prefer being single sweetie. Less problems. You should have a serious talk with your husband. No relationship, whether married or not, can be build on lies.

hi dear, Trust is something we gain and not something we can buy over the counter I have issues too when it comes to trusting someone specially if I just meet them through net and they don't have a clear identification but still I give them my trust I don't hide anything what they see is what they get, I hate hypocrites too......that's why as much as possible I am trying to be frank and honest to what I feel even it can hurt someone. No one wants to be lied and cheated but this is the reality of life Dear. they say why we hurt someone we love? and that is still unanswered

As I already poured my heart out to you, I cannot really say much on the issue, without getting offensive. I don't even want to know the answer to why one hurt those you love. I know what it can do to a person, sweetie.

Honesty is the best policy. Honesty creates and boosts the self respect and self respect is an asset, if we lost it can not regain.

Hi sweetie. Honesty is and always will be the best policy, whether people like that or not. After some thinking and trying to understand, i think we need to try and regain what we have lost. No matter how hard it is. Impossible is not in my vocabulary anymore.

As far as tantrums go, it's well justified if someone's broken your trust. I think most people here feel the same. We don't feel any more special than the next person, so a special treatment isn't really necessary. But being treated fair and honestly is a good start for any relationship. I hope you get to a better place soon.

Hello my zen master. I wish everyone can be that way. Honesty doesn't cost you anything at all. I'm working on that better place. Thanx sweetie.

I think you're expecting too much from people. You need to look at things from the other point of you. What if the people you associate with don't trust you, and therefore lie to you? What if you make people feel so uncomfortable around you it drives them to cheat/lie and all that. Judging as it has been for a long time I deeply think it's something you're doing wrong or expecting so much out of people you make them subconsciously nervous. No offence, just my opinion.

Hi sweetie. I don't expect anything from anyone, but honesty. If I make someone feel uncomfortable, they should let me know. I'm a simple and straight forward person. I cannot make people trust me, neither can I just trust anyone. If I did something wrong, I will apologise. I'm really not offended at all

Its not too much to ask at all. I know plenty of liars and more hypocrites- most of them at work. Because of the way people I have a very limited social circle, why waste what little spare time you have with either people that you barely lie- or will let you down?

What you have said, is said and expected from each of us. There is nothing new in what you like, or what you hate. The question is whether one adopts the things in his/her life more than he/she expects from others. All reforms become effective only when these are begun at home. Please don't take it personally. My view is of general type.

Hello beautiful SPECIAL lady. You know, the people we choose to love are the ones who hurt us the most. Inevitably, we all stuff up from time to time. We do something wrong then we lie to cover our tracks...at least that's what we did when we were small children. Some just don't grow past that stage. They don't think things through, don't consider the consequences. Outside truth or lies can also be a cover up for what's really going on deep down inside. So then we have a choice, do we cut them loose or do we forgive them. Of course, each case is different and we are the only ones who know our own stories and what we've endured and what's seemingly expected of us. Do we turn the other cheek? Do we hit back? What steps do we take as we move forward? What do we want the outcome to be? I wish you love, joy and truth and a loving and honest shoulder to lean on when you need it. Hugs to you my friend and feel better...OK?

Okay, Sid confirmed what I was thinking, where have you been? We missed you and I actually went to one of your previous discussions recently and wondered if you were around anymore.. Now for your tantrum, I totally agree, I am the same way. Probably why sometimes I loss friends, because I found they have lied to me, but this is also a good thing, this means you and I are wonderful friends to others because we try to not lie and cheat on our friend. So think of it this way, the friends you have? Is probably because they know you are a great friend and you are trustworthy...;)

Tantrum? You gone missing from mylot is a bigger one - I miss you so very much despite you sharing with me where you were planning to go to. Okay, on the discussion - I know you and am happy that you are still the same you I know of - dear saphrina. I know you love being honest and be treated with honesty and respect - something I admire you about. And wait... asking for being honest is never too much.
