Trust

[Willoughbyva]

xtknight: I am unsure what you mean? I was teased a ot as a kid. Most of the time as I was growing up I didn't hold it against the people who teased me. It did have an effect on me though. So are you saying beause I was teased that something about me is different than "normal"?

No, not that way. Not in the bullying fashion.

I just mean, who would you trust more? A friend who's "always nice" or a friend who is a tad overconfident and teases around with you? Or does it have no bearing? I would almost trust the latter more since they seem to be a more "real" person.

I don't know. I don't trust much of anybody. Most people follow their own perogative on what they do anyway, so I guess a person really can't trust anyone else. I thought that if I had someone I could trust I wouldn't be lonely, but maybe there is something good about superficial relationships.

We all need someone that we can trust emotionally, IMHO. But it's hard to find someone worthy, and harder to not expect too much from them.

It takes two people to build an emotional trust, and even then it can be fragile. I think most people date or marry someone they emotionally trust but I guess that can also be a parent or close friend.

I wouldn't worry much about it. You'll have many bonds in life, most will end broken for one reason or the other, but they'll all be just as important as the next. It's just part of life to make connections with others. Some will be fun, some will be intellectual, some boring, etc..

I don't think I will have very many bonds in my life. There have been a few, but not many.

Thanks for posting.
