i met this great guy who is nothing like the jerks in my past yet i dont trust him and its for no reason.i dont want to ***** this up and lose him so what do i do?i dont think its my intuition or anyhting like that because ive realized i have trust issues with family and friends as well and its for no real reason.i have always felt like the outsider in the family and i know it sounds crazy but i always felt like they were sort of evil people.my mom for example i always felt like she favored my sisters secretly over me..maybe cuz they look and act more like her.i dont even trust my sister. my sister is a natural flirt and my first bf was a jerk and i never trusted either one of them and hatedmy sister because in my head i thought she was evil with evil motives like trying to steal my bf away.i dont have friends that r girls cuz i feel like girls can be evil too and if i had a bf i would be insecure and not trust my friends.itslike i feel that everyone is out to get me.the only people that i trust r my great grandma because shes like a saint in my eyes and my youngest sister because i just feel shes the most innocent and i dont know why.

2Shy asked:
I have noticed that most people expect the worst from others and don’t trust them. I myself don’t trust my family sometimes.
Why is that? Why don’t we trust our friends or our family or just other people?

All I have is my cliche that I have become the intelligent drunk my grandpa was(he died before I met him but I am compared to him a lot). The question is though, what do I do? Drink myself into oblivion or what?

bigmama asked:
I have been in counceling for many years and things are getting worse. I do not trust myself and it causes me to make poor decisions. My Stepfather is the abuser. My whole family knows and has done nothing about it. They talk to him as if nothing has ever happened. I am a 37 year old single mother, and my poor decisions have angered my family, and they don’t understand why I keep messing up. I wan’t to heal so badly, but it’s obviously not happening, and I don’t know why. The only thing I can think of is the fact that my mother stayed with him, and that the rest of the family pretends that everything is okay. I know that if anyone sexually abused my children, no matter who did it will pay dearly. I just can’t understand why my mother stayed with him. It really bothers me! It really bothers me that my own biological father did absolutely nothing about it. To this day, my stepfather gets invited to family gatherings on my fathers side. I see this as morally wrong! Do you? Please help?

With the exception of my family, I find it hard to trust people. I find that when I am with people other than my family, especially at work.
With the exception of my family, I find it hard to trust people. I find that when I am with people other than my family, especially at work.
I am CONSTANTLY wondering what so and so thinks of me, if that group of people I passed is laughing at me, or if something as innocent as a smile means the person thinks I’m a joke.
I don’t know where these thoughts come from, any ideas on how I can start trusting people again?

karen asked:
I come from a dysfunctional family ( emotional and physical abuse) so the only contact i have with them are on the holidays.I don’t have any friends because i’ve been raped, bullied,teased and been lied to many many times.Many books talk about self reliance and self love.Sometimes i wish i had friends but at the same time i feel i can’t trust anybody. Can someone live their whole lives without family and friends ?

example: losing the trust of a close family member or friend at a young age causes a person to create a new reality for themselves so that noone knows the true person they really are but theyve gotten so used to living this way they forget who they used to be.

You may have a dysfunctional family but trust me, this dysfunction isn’t common.
Basically, the question is the description. Dysfunction as in not always really your typical dysfunction.

confused soul asked:
I’ve been let down by many people in my life. I just don’t think I can trust anyone anymore. I only feel like I can trust my immediate family and that is it. I’m honest with people and then they will lie to me. I do what I say I will, but they never seem to do their part. I don’t feel like I have any friends that I can trust because the second something happens, they aren’t there. It has always been like this. I’ve found new friends but I could never trust them either. I’ve been in relationships with guys that ended up breaking my trust. Whenever I let someone in, they let me down. I make the mistake of getting emotionally attached and then get left torn and in the cold. I want to trust people, but how can I when I am let down so much?
