Is It Easy To Trust Again?

TRUST. Big Word. Trusting someone is my choice but proving me otherwise is the person's choice. I cannot say that I am a very trusting person but I do trust people when its the only choice I have. Do you easily trust people? When trust is broken, it is really hard to regain or repair. It can never be the same again. I may forgive but that will always be a warning for me. That will be something I won't forget so to make sure that the person won't be able to fool me again. Do you have trust issues?

Each word you wrote is so true. Once a person breaks your immense trust, you can forgive because of your love for that person; but you can never forget that. Moreover you need indefinite time to trust that person again.

I am a living proof to that. It is easy to forgive but to forget is a different thing

@cherigucchi Because if we trust after a short span of time , we will not know some hidden agenda of the person .

@SIMPLYD Yes you are right , so we shouldn't trust any one so quick is the morale of the story . If we trust and get hurt hard to find a gum bottle to fix it .

Trust really is a big word and something that's hard to get back once lost. Overall I tend to be too trusting of people and that's gotten me burned bad many times. I'm not as trusting as I once was anymore and I have a hard time letting people back in once they've broken that trust. A good example being my ex wife, she broke our sacred oath by stepping out on our marriage more then once, I forgave her and tried to move on, but once that trust was broken it was hard not wondering what she was doing, where she was, etc when I was at work or away from her fulfilling my duties and obligations. Try as I might rebuilding that trust was nearly impossible. This is not to say that if I were to get into a relationship again that I'd have problems trusting someone else. Maybe I would though I don't know only time will tell I guess.

I understand where you are coming from. We all have our reasons for not trusting again and mostly it is based on our bad experiences with other people

@cherigucchi It sucks doesn't it? I use to be a super trusting person and would help anyone but I've been burned too many times so I'm a little more hesitant now.

You see there is a saying - promises are made to be broken. We trust many people blindly assuming that they are as nice as us but when they betray it pinches. The question is - Should we stop trusting people and look them with suspicion? The answer is No. We need to trust people because most of the people are nice. There could always be a black sheep among the herd. It is not easy for everyone to identify the black sheep, till something goes wrong. As far as I am concerned, I normally trust everyone and I do not doubt his/her integrity till I find outsomething very odd about him.

Unfortunately my personality is such that when someone lets me down that is the end of that relationship. I must change but how!!

In my case, it depends on the gravity of the broken trust

Trust is a very big word, when someone break my trust, it's very hard to regain it back.

I tend to trust all people I meet; however, I don't trust them 100% at first. They have to prove that they are trustworthy. Trust is so easy to give but when it's broken, it's so hard to give it again. There's only fifty per cent of it left. I'm pretty sure that somehow, people can regain that trust again, if they are willing to do their best.

I used to trust everyone, thinking and believing they were good people and thinking they would be like myself. Now I am not that stupid. I have been through enough to know most people are only out for themselves... Sad world we live in. If you don't have money or many "things" your garbage in this world to most people. I don't care what you have or own-if I like you then I like you.

We learn from experience but as the time passes wounds are healed but the lessons learned stay

@cherigucchi Some times we do trust people very easily , when we turn back we don't find a proper reason or answer why we trusted them . I can't trust and i don't trust any one easily . When anything get a break hard to fix or repair similarly trust is on the same road but it is a High way .where we can't take U turn up to a Long distance.

After what my ex does to me, I have hard time to trust people because of what she have done, she changed me how I treat people, how I trust them, and how to talk to them.. But I think it's different on which person i'm talking to, there are times that people when the person I know once traitor me, then I don't talk to them seriously after what they've done. I want them to feel that "Hey you backstab me once right? so don't assume that you're going to get something from me."

Our emotions are affected by the experiences that we had in the past and that is understandable.
