i cant trust

i really don't think that you can learn to trust. i just think it happens. like you feel like that you can share things with that person or something. you know? maybe not, don't pay attention to me.

I used to feel like that- turned out i was just being dramatic.

oh i feel like that all the time and after getting burned by a countless number of people-i've learned the only person i can really trust is my diary!! it may sound a little stupid but it helps! and it's always safer that way-so dont tell the important stuff to anyone...at least until you know it's safe!! and some stuff it's just ya gota do it and you might get hurt but some stuff is just too juicy to keep to yourself!!! lol...duno if that helped at all...but...good luck!

There are varying degrees of trust (and by asking us for help you are trusting us to give good advice... not so hard, is it?). Perhaps you should write a list detailing levels of trust.

Everyone starts at the bottom and can earn trust all the way up to the top.

How many levels of trust and what kinds of things you put in that level can only be set by you.

example:

Level 1: No trust, dont tell this person anything.
Level 2: Not a total dork. Be friendly, say hello, see how it goes.
Level 3: I could be friends with this person.. share no secrets with them though.

etc. up the last one (be that 6, 29 or 4000)

Level X: Complete trust. I would happily put my life in this person's hands.

Might work, might not, but there's only one way to find out though, trust me. *grins*
