hi there.. i have issues regarding counting on someone, especially if we already have an agreeement of some sort like to send text message inorder to meet or something but ended up not receiving anything. how about you? do you have similar experiences? how do you know if someone is to be counted upon? how can you tell the sincerity of one person? happy mylotting?

I think I am very dependable, seeing as it seems to to be me that all my friends come to when they need anything done or help in any way, I am certainly not a procrastinator, I believe in getting the job done but i must be honest there doesn't seem to be many people aroun me that i can really count on in times of need that is not too many but has happened in times...

well, for me no matter what, if the person is really a friend of yours and i guess she should have the qualities of being trusted and you can count on him/her in anytime you'll be needing him/her.,

Hi there shiloh!
I am the type of person whom my friends can really count on. I would go out of my way to be there for them. Unless of course, there are things that I need to prioritize. But if that is the case, I will always make sure that I will make them know and after what I need to do, I will get back to them and check what else can I do for them.
It can really be annoying and frustrating if and when you think you can count on someone and end up disappointed. It is hard to identify people whom you really can count on. Sometimes, we just have to base it on experience.

i used to have issues also regarding trust n confidence with people. because before many people broke their promises to me. so to guard myself against it, i dont easily trust. later, i got over with the feeling by God's help. i learned that if i cant trust people who i see, how can i trust God who I cant see. bit by bit, i started trusting in people. if they failed me, i learn to forgive. i think it this way, if i dwell in the negative feeling, its my lost. in my end, i see to it i comply with my promises. there are times that i forget, i apologize with since heart and try to make up.
