Trusting People...again. And again.

What do you do with people who don't even know you enough to say bad things about you? People whom you've trusted with some really personal things but comes out using all of it against you? People who apologize after breaking the trust you've given them then do it all over again? And what do you do if one person keeps doing all that to you over and over? I'm trying to heal, but how can i when there are just some people who seem to have made it their calling to make my life miserable? I've racked my head for all the possible reasons. Envy? Jealousy? Insecurity? But I'm not rich, or popular. I do well in school, but i work hard for every good grade i get. It's not my fault that i come from a good family with good genes, and that i was raised in an environment where i am loved, where i am secure. And anyone would see that my "detractors" are better than me. They're smarter and richer and OLDER than me. They get the upper hand in life. So why do they have to hurt people like me? I don't consider myself elite, but i think i deserve respect just like any other person in this world. I just want to know if any of you have something to say about trust. I know i should be able to trust others, especially when they have done nothing to betray me, but it's really hard for me to right now.

Oh! its even very hard to listen to your story, I can't even Imagine, how you are able to bare all those things. If i was their at your place, I would have done either of these: Would have had fight with them, and teach them a lesson, so that they can be sure about the reality of my life. The most easy way to get out of these things. But by this you can't win them, you'll just loose them. Second is Would have ignored them, its really tough to do this, one can't just close their ear and sit back. But the most effective way to change their thought. If not, then they'll at least stop wasting their energy on teasing you.

actually, they don't simply tease. they've accused me of being something i'm not. so it's really, really hard to just ignore it, but i'm trying. Oh, well...

May be dear friend, by ignoring you can reach to success. I'll pray for you, may God give you enough of patience to fight politely.
