I tend to be overly trusting of people. If they seem nice, I'm willing to treat them as a good friend and tell them a lot more things than you'd expect. It hasn't yet come back to bite me, but I know someday it will, haha.

I try to be a person that people can trust, and I think they can, but you can never be certain of that kind of thing.

I used to be extremely trusting but over the past couple of years I've been toning that down. I don't have trust issues, but now I only tell a few people about how I really feel or my really personal stories. Not because I think they'll betray me, but because I don't think a lot of people need to know my super personal stories.

Idk how to explain it really, I guess I've risen the standards of the people I will trust.

I tend to trust easily, probably because I'm one to figure people will always be nice to me. And they usually are. But some people I'm just immediately distrustful of. It seems I have good judgement because I haven't been wrong in my judgements yet. But I only give out certain things about myself. It's not even me being careful about things, it's just I don't reveal a lot of myself ever.

The weirdest thing though, is that people trust me. I mean, I would even trust me. Even though I know I gossip with my friends near-constantly and am crap at keeping secrets. I mean big things I don't tell, like personal issues & whatever. But I'm terrible with the everyday who-likes-who gossip and people tell me everything. I don't know why.

I'm pretty quick to trust people, but only up to a point. I've got a small core of myself that I don't feel I can share with anyone. But for everything else, lending things, doing favors for people, all of that stuff I'll do pretty easily. Usually people are trustworthy so it's all good.

I dont really truly trust a lot of people. I will not trust anybody right away and it honestly takes a lot for me to trust someone. I probably have issues with trusting people but that's just me. I myslef feel that I am a trustworthy person because I go out of my way to make sure Im trustworthy to people. I dont want to lose people's trust at all.
I keep nearly everyone on the same level of trust which is no trust. I keep everything to myself and the few things I do share are usually the least important to me anyways.

A lot of people say they can trust me or feel as though they can which I think is true. If someone tells me something and they really don't want me to share then I usually never say anything. Idk I just know how much it sucks to get secrets told or stuff that is important to you etc.

I don't have trust issues, but it is hard to gain my complete trust.

A person has to show me why they deserve my trust. Not to sound snobby or anything, but I have had people throw it away in the past, so I don't see why I should have to go through that again.

I always trust until I'm given a reason not to. I wouldn't say that's a trust issue, so no I don't have trust issues lol.

As for whether people trust me - well, they tend to tell me a lot of stuff, so I guess that equates to them trusting me. I don't repeat anything anybody tells me if they ask me not to, so there isn't really a reason not to trust me.

I never really use the word trust when referring to friends/acquaintances/family/whatever, so I'm not entirely sure how trusting I am of people (and vice versa). Thinking about it, I'd definitely place unconditional trust in most of my family, as I've known them for long enough to think that they wouldn't mishandle anything I give them/tell them; I'd probably unconditionally trust a few of my closer friends, but maybe not others... I dunno. I really don't think about this issue enough, which is probably bad, in the grand scheme of things!

In the true definition of trusting people, I do. I trust people until I have a reason not to trust them anymore, which is usually when someone does something that I consider to be really bad. I can't really think of an example of losing my trust and confidence, though. I think I'm much too trusting, and I'm also much too forgiving and too good-hearted. Throw that on top of the laid back no-big-deal personality I have, and that's a recipe for disaster!

It took me way too long to work out what the title was referring too ):
I'm quite a trust worthy person, but it takes very little to damage any trust that I've given to someone. The second I see what the person is capable of, be it by doing something to me or saying that they've done something to someone else, I begin to not trust them and close off around them.

When I was younger I had slight trust issues but they've gone away since I started going online more and talking to peoples I've met on the forums. I can say even though it takes time to gain my full trust, I welcome new friendships with open arms xD

I used to have a little trust issue when I was in high school, but now, I no longer have any. To me, it's kind of hard not to trust people. I trust people, and they trust me. The only ones who I don't trust are the ones that I've had issues with in the past, and that's about it. =)
