Are you simple minded? Does it take you long to trust someone u don't know? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 99/100. voldrox (1498)   ranked 164 out of 35,325 in people2 months ago

I believe i am, i am so simple minded that i tend to believe what anyone says is always true, but you know what i honestly believe i need to change, this is not alright, i have been taken advantage of just because i have been nice to people i did not know well, but nothing that big has happened with me but i know i need to be more careful in the future... I dun wanna learn lesson the hard way!thumbdown, i should take care...

So you believe you can trust someone easily? I can and so i am not good with strangers... what do you have to say?

Thank you all...

Hi voldrox,

I was a simple minded but no longer for the bad peoplelol. When I step into the internet world I thought that everybody is like me (simple and innocent) but later I changed my opinion and started to observe people very closely. Now it is not difficult for me to separate the good people and bad people. My intuition too helps me to a great extenthappy. If a person is good we can understand his/her greatness very easily. So we can trust them very easily. cool



myLot reputation of 99/100. voldrox (1498)   ranked 164 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hi Sreekala

It is good to know you have learned to watch out lol well even i don't share my personal details with strangers, if i am traveling in the train i don't talk to strangers but only if need be otherwise i am never the one to start conversation, i would respond if they say something though but if they share something i say no thanks... yes we should be careful while chatting with people we don't know well, i don't add someone so easily in other social networking sites... thanks for responding Sreekala happy have a nice day!:)

Hello voldrox.

I believe we have the same attitude. I easily befriend people around me and i don't see anything wrong with it. You just have to exercise your judgment meter when it comes to unusual people. Those people who look suspicious.

Again, there is nothing wrong with us. It's more on being smarter than usual. Don't take your niceness away. rolleyesthumbup

Hello my wonderful friend happy

You are far from simple minded, you have a trusting nature and you tend to take people at their word, I use to be the same way, your still young you must remember you have many life lessons to learn, this is just one of them, so take this as a lesson learned and do better as far as trusting everyone so easily, simple minded not hardly, you have a great mind, the fact that you realize there are untrusting people out here means you are going to be fine my friend, I use to feel we were all alike and people said what they meant like I do, I learned the hard way as far as my feelings being hurt and things of that nature, but now I know better.

Always remember that action speaks louder than words, its not so much what people say that count, its their actions behind their words that makes the difference, don't feel bad my friend.

So remember, you are far from simple minded, you have a trusting nature and there is nothing wrong with you, they have the problem, in time they will wish they appreciated you for the person you are.

Smoooochessss my friend.


myLot reputation of 99/100. voldrox (1498)   ranked 164 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hi Kitty!

Nice to see you again happy how are you doing? wow what a wonderful response my friend, thank you so much for your kind words, yeah i am young and i really need to learn a lot here, it is true we can't keep trusting everyone, i am sorry you had to learn things the hard way, but i guess you must be doing good now, i wish you the best my friend, i will always see you here:) . . . feelings, emotions and trust are not something to play with and some people don't care enough i guess, i will take care and keep my head alert at all times lol . . . like some say open up your head before opening up your heart, it seems true, this is how the world is, in fact there is one you can always always trust, it is Him happy . . . don't worry my friend i will always take care and better analyze things before execution hehe... but the good thing is that people who know us and who care find it easy to trust us and that is how i guess i have a nice image at the place i live in, okay i might be a little shy but well i should not be saying anymore coz i am feeling like i am boasting already lol, anyways we both seem to be so similar, thank you kitty for your kind words, have a nice day!:)

Hello my wonderful friend happy

You are such a great caring individual, your family and friends are lucky to have you thumbup keep up the good work my friend, brag all you like you are entitled I love to read what you say, I know you are going to be a remarkable husband someday, just take your time my friend and do what you have to do, never doubt yourself life has many lessons, also watch others you can learn a thing or two from them as well, I avoided so much in my life by learning from other peoples mistakes.

Smoochessss my friend.

I will be on and off, but never gone for too long.

hi kitty and voldrox^^;;
how have been the two of you doing?sad

hhmmm...i find myself the same with you voldrox.
but kitty, is having a trusting nature different from being gullible?
I also easily trust people whom i don't know even if we talk about money so i think the latter one in a way suits my description which disturbs me and i feel stupidcry


myLot reputation of 95/100. Lucky09 (733)   ranked 3,251 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

my first emoticons should be a happy one! why is it sad?angry
sorry for that mistake


myLot reputation of 99/100. kitty42 (1165)   ranked 4,369 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hello my friend happy

There is a difference my friend if you don't learn from these mistakes, if we continue to do the same things over/over/over again well that is pretty dumb, I use to lend money to people, well is some cases help them out when I thought they needed it, then realized things were being said in front of me just to get a reaction, I learned pretty quick, so gullible/dumb/stupid lol call it whatever we like I have been all these things one time or another I guess, but never again my friend, and the important thing is that we learn from this, we all make mistakes its what we take from them that matters, I know people that make the same mistakes over/over Its really sad, buy a clue why don't you.

So to answer you my friend, trusting is one thing gullible is knowingly allowing people to take advantage, no matter what they see you fall for it, I think we are too nice for our own good, gullible is not something I would call myself, well maybe then but not for long, you know what I mean, we make mistakes by trusting people at their word,but do we continue to make these mistakes thats the important question, I would hope you realize people will take advantage of your kindness,so be careful and don't give so freely o.k

Just a life lesson, learn from it, learn from this discussion,do things different and you will be fine, I hope you understand what I mean here lucky thumbup

Smoochesssss


myLot reputation of 99/100. voldrox (1498)   ranked 164 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hi lucky09 and kitty:)

How are you both doing, i am so glad to see you both here, hey lucky i guess we need to learn many things from life, it might sound like a disadvantage when we trust people easily but you know it is a quality many people like as well, thank you kitty for your good words, i will take care and so will you lucky hehe... with me so far it has only been much much smaller things but i realize in the future there could be larger things at stake blink.. i trust people easily that is one of the reasons i don't get along well with people i don't know well, i mean i don't like to share personal information with people soon, i will be careful and so will be lucky hehe anyways thank you both so much for dropping in here, have a great day both of you!thumbup


myLot reputation of 95/100. Lucky09 (733)   ranked 3,251 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

hello again to both of you
smoochesssss my friends...
thanks for those advices kitty and voldrox. happy
ofcourse i don't believe everything one say and i know it doesn't happen often because i also don't meet a lot of people but i think i am just too way loose and kind (ahem) to refuse them when they ask something. blush

voldrox, what are u playing there? seems you like headbanging soundwub


myLot reputation of 99/100. kitty42 (1165)   ranked 4,369 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hello you two, happy

This is a great discussion, just know you are not alone, I am older so I already know how to hold back when the time comes, my daughter tells me al the time mom you are too nice you need to toughen up, I have but she has not seen it because I need to toughen up with her as well shocked I will never be mean and cold hearted because that is not in my nature, so please don't ever allow anyone to change the person you are just be careful who you choose to be extra kind too, there are as many selfish if not more then there are kind hearted people in this world, they will take our kindness as a weakness, as long as we learn to wean out those people we will be fine, smoochesss to the both of you, always nice to meet like minded people.

Thanks for this discussion voldrox, the two of you are great and I am so glad you are my friends.


myLot reputation of 99/100. voldrox (1498)   ranked 164 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hi both you happy... nice to see you both you again, well sorry i keep coming in a little late, yes lucky i understand it is hard for us to ignore people, but sometimes we do need to ignore them coz they are no good and we should realize we should not worry coz they don't worry about us, once this feeling is set in then we can care lesser, why to bother people who don't want to bother you or are merely just surfacing from the ocean just to have some advantage from us, this shall not happen, nopes! yes like you say kitty, we need to be stern at times, we can't always think much about others, probably a whole lot waste of time, i should learn to care less coz they do!glare... i guess i am becoming more of the way you are now kitty, but still i have to learn a lot lot of things from this life... wow it is so good to meet people like you!thumbup.... have a great day both of you!:)

honestly speaking,i am not a simple minded.and i am born so.i always want to have a simpler mind .sadly i didn;t.
i guess it is decided when we are born.strangers don;t win my trust easily.it usually take a long time and several tests for me to open my heart to someone i don't know.in this way,i am quite safe until now.there are disadvantages,that is it makes you feel alarmed and tired all the time.


myLot reputation of 99/100. voldrox (1498)   ranked 164 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hi ami

Yes you are right, sometimes i become so sensitive towards small things, i don't like that... that is why i don't open upto strangers, i mean i don't like to share information coz i know i should not, i guess i should be more careful with people, well even i don't open up to people soon, i am a little shy but yeah with time i get close and that is the time when i get to realize the truth, anyways lately i have been careful and i would rather share information only when the other person is willing to start and so i won't be the first one to say about me, i would know more about the person and then i would say things about me... though some people might be uncomfortable being the first one to say just like me but later on things become understandable and then things go well... happy

thank you for sharing ami, have a nice day!cool

I am good. I am a good-natured person . I am generous. But I am not simple minded. I am not a simpleton and I am definitely not an easy mark most of the time. That does not mean I was not con at all. I had my share of felling prey. I was suckered in to part with good money because generosity is my weakness. But I am right minded and God fearting. In short, I am a nice person and I try to be one.


myLot reputation of 99/100. voldrox (1498)   ranked 164 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hi jonjee

well good to know you are generous but not simple minded, i wish i could not be so easily influenced with words, well i am trying to get better at it and yeah it is getting better thumbup I am not good at dealing with strangers and i since i get influenced easily i don't open up easily to people i haven't met before... God fearing i am as well, the problem with me is that i believe everybody speaks the truth always but that is not the case unfortunately, i don't say i never lie but yeah i wish we were not so selfish, it is the way the world is now, and we need to be more careful...

LOL I'm certainly not simple minded or a simple person overall according to my hubby and some of my friends LOL...as for trusting ppl easily....No, coming from the history that I do trust isnt something I hand out easily BUT I also have a great instinct when it comes to ppl so sometimes I can trust one easier then another because i get a good feeling about them..


myLot reputation of 99/100. voldrox (1498)   ranked 164 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hi Ravenladyj

It is good to know, yeah that is the way it is supposed to be, trust people best when you know them better, i don't get along soon with people i haven't met before, even if they try to be good, i don't open up soon, i need time to understand them well, i guess i am really getting better at it, we can't trust everyone always, we need to be good at analyzing what goes inside the head and better to keep away if you find something fishy lol, if you have a good feeling for someone after getting to know them better then it get's easier to trust them thumbup

thanks for letting us know Ravenladyj, have a nice day!cool

I am not really simple minded, and it take me quite long to trust someone. I can be friendly, but not too expose about my private life or believing in someone's words right away. Maybe it's just an habit, since i don't recall any experience that made me turn like that. Sometimes it's good for not trust easily to people, but sometimes you felt uneasy for yourself for something that probably not necessary at all..LOL


myLot reputation of 99/100. voldrox (1498)   ranked 164 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hi jc_star

I understand jc it is good to know it isn't the same case with you, you are right we should not be so easily influenced with people we don't know well, well i am beginning to learn things these days, i am lucky i did not have a big issue anytime just petty cases, and those petty cases are enough to make one realize that we should be more careful when there are bigger things at hand, hehe you are right we shouldn't be worrying about things that others don't make a big deal out of, probably it only effects us and which is completely futile, i mean why think that much when the other person doesn't care enough, i have begun to realize that lately, and so i guess i am learning thumbup

thanks for sharing your views jc, have a nice day!cool

I do agree we have to be careful and I think in some ways I am too trusting. But then I have seen people who don't trust anyone and have become very cynical about people, and I think that is sad too.

So I think we should protect ourselves to a certain extent with strangers, but at the same time there is certainly nothing wrong with being a friendly open person - don't lose your openness!


myLot reputation of 99/100. voldrox (1498)   ranked 164 out of 35,325 in people  2 months ago

Hi EnglishTeaDuck

yes we need to be more careful when it comes to trusting people especially people trying to make out some sort of deal, or even some salesperson, they get to get a hint of you when they have a little talk with you and they start to bug you a lot, when they cross limits i get frustrated and simply tell them i m not interested... i guess i am changing, i becoming more 'hard hearted' i guess we need to be that way at times... not much speaking to strangers and all....

glad to have your response EnglishTeaDuck, have a nice day!cool

I understand, i trust others very easily so i am not good with people i don't know well, i don't talk to strangers much especially when i am traveling in the train, i am never the one to start the conversation, it is best to keep it to yourself and have a good time enjoying listening to music and all and not bother others much...
