Trust

Trust is something that I find very hard to have in someone. After all, it takes years to develop trust for someone, and only seconds to break it.

Through my life I've had many of friends, and almost all of them have broken my trust towards them. In ways such as sleeping with my partner at the time, and spreading lies about me just to name a couple. This has caused me to become very cynical towards others, even family.

I suppose my cynicism has made me become more reclusive. If I ever do go out with friends or family, I often take things they say the wrong way. They think I'm twisting their words on purpose, and usually it will initiate an argument, and I hate arguing. Now, I try to accept what they're saying as positive, unless I believe they are truly being negative, which in most cases, is indeed the case.

I'm interested in hearing your thoughts about trust. Are you the type of person who will trust anyone, or does it take you some time to build up trust for someone?
