I been through alot in life and i dont trust ppl from family,friends anyone.In most situations i always expect someone to be dishonest/disloyal to me before it happens in most relationships i usually already have one foot out the door is anything wrong with living/feeling this way to protect myself?? Also i found this scripture which really is putting the icing on the cake.

Micah 7:5-6 ESV

Put no trust in a neighbor; have no confidence in a friend; guard the doors of your mouth from her who lies in your arms; for the son treats the father with contempt, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house

Some people deserve your trust, and some don't.

The trick is figuring out the difference between the two......

I agree 100% with this verse as it does speak the truth but that doesn't mean you have to live life in fear but just remember that what a lot that we do is for ourselves/selfish gain. But yes we need to learn to build strength together rather than fighting over each other.

If you think it makes you happy, there is nothing I can say to disuade you.

Its a survival mechanism. You should only trust the closest people to you

Micah is one of the least quoted books by Xtians.

Pretty easy to see why.

I've worn my heart on my sleeve all my life. And at times, others have taken advantage of me. But I see no reason to change habits now. God will reward me and punish any offenders. So I leave it all in his hands.

Today it is certainly wise to exercise a little caution in all our affairs.

Let me ask you this....
Can I or anyone else...TRUST YOU????

If we can trust you, then that means that there are people out there, like you.

If we cannot trust you...maybe you should stay away from people.

You could live a life like Saddam or Hitler did...VERY paranoid. Not a good way to live.

You have to let someone into your trust....or you will live alone.

It is not bad to start out not trusting, but you limit yourself if you can not learn to trust those who prove themselves trustworthy.
