1.6K opinions shared on Relationships topic. You know what I really like this question because I tried to answer it or five different times and I've come to the conclusion that there is different types of of trust. Usually I would say I have no reason to not just anybody until they give me that reason but depending on what it is that I'm trusting them with that's bulshit so I had to look at myself and be honest and if you ask me if I was going to be there at 7 tomorrow night good I said yes there's no way you could trust me on that because I'm always late if I borrow 20 bucks from you you could dress me to pay it back if you had a deep dark secret you could trust me to take it to my grave but when it comes 2 time need some place in a certain time. You can't trust me I'm not trustworthy I will be late everything time I don't know I trust many people many times and I've been burnt many times and I knew I was going to get burnt when I was doing whatever I was doing I see qualities are anybody that's straight-up doesn't talk shit about anybody else. you know what to be honest I don't know because I'm not going to trust anybody with anything I mean if it's Petty bullcrap yeah I'll say I'll trust you until you give me a reason not to but when it comes down to deep deep things I don't trust anyone the world's changed too much people are in it are different nobody has morals values are ethics anymore I mean yes there are people yes. But most of the people I know some do some don't the ones I would think that it have it the very rich people are the most fucked-up people the poorest people the poorest of poor people yeah I would trust them more than anybody else

+1 yWhen they show a level of respect to you and others.
When you have seen an example of lesser things, when they agree to a certain time date and show up, when they say they will do something they actually do it.
The level of trust they show in you, it can be reciprocated action.
also levels of trust develop, you share a minor bit of information, they do and you gradually learn trust.
through our actions we earn trust
Jumping sideways a bit with this.
within BDSM (lifestyle stuff not bedroom) there is a thing that is Trust comes before obedience.
basically a sub is trust her Dom with her both physically and mentally, they need to be 100% certain they can trust this person.
the trust between a Dom and sub is very high because it covers both physical and mental, and also involves respect.11 Reply- +1 y

+1 yIf a guy is honest when you don’t expect him to be. Like a guy from work was hitting on this gorgeous girl and his friend gave him a dirty look and said “dream on.” Somebody that honest is unusual.

+1 yI really don’t trust anyone so that’s hard. I feel like people do good things but then they also do bad things. I feel like that’s a thing for everyone where you can’t 100% trust anyone

Well I like what you said cuz I guess we all have a tendency to do good as well as bad things so maybe that could serve us as a reminded to be gracious to others as we recognize we have our faults as well

I can say it for myself where I have been toxic and the harmful one in certain situations, but I have also been in situations where I have been very trustworthy and many people can trust me because of those good deeds.

@BLMUSER all these crazy assumptions you just analyzed. Anyone can backstab you at any given moment. Dogs and cats are not programmed to be intelligent enough to lie and backstab their owners. Dogs and cats bite and claw to defend themselves when they feel threatened.

+1 yOpeness and communicative. An example is if my partner consistently lets me know where they are and who they're with without me having to ask them, I'll develop trust over time with them. It's the same as if they tell me what they're feeling. No secrets in what their thoughts are or what they're feeling in any scenario will make me trust them blindly when they say something. I always do this with my partner and I hope that they do it without me asking. I don't want to have to tell them. It should be a mutual feeling. My ex and I did it without ever telling each other and we trusted each other blindly.

+1 yI would say if they are humble and modest - if they are willing to admit their successes and their failures - and if they are very down to Earth, then I would be more likely to feel like I can trust them. Also, if they tell you the truth whether you like it or not. Say for example, you are trying on clothes - rather than saying everything looks great, for them to say what looks great and what looks terrible and justifying why, this will make me feel more like they are honest and trustworthy, even if I don’t like their honest opinions. Trust takes some time to build and only one deceit to destroy, but trust comes with time and is a feeling that grows within you over time 🙂

+1 yHere is what makes me trust someone
1. If they are willing to trust you with confidential information.
2. If they demonstrate strong spiritual beliefs. This is different then SAYING they have strong spiritual beliefs. This comes out on how they treat other people.
3. If they don’t seem overly focused on image. Some people do a fantastic job of living a lie. But you can tell by looking into their eyes when they smile. I knew a girl who had the best fake smile I have ever seen in my life back in college. But there was a hint in her eyes that she was two faced / liar.
4. Last but not least is if they gossip. At the end of the day we all gossip. But the difference is it gossiping with someone you know very well? If an acquaintance starts trash talking someone in 3rd person I immediately lose trust and respect for them.00 Reply
+1 yWell I do not think there ate qualities as much as actions. Anyone can posses certain qualities and talk a good game then stab you in the back. So I guess if consistency was a quality I would choose that. Because the more consistent you are the less likely you are flaky or dishonest. A dishonest person has to always think of new excuses and lies abd is rarely consistent. Also I guess maybe actual kindness. What I mean is helping people from kindness of your heart not just to get recognition or reward.

+1 ySomeone that helps you move. Selfless acts. Too many people nowadays will only hang out/talk/date a person if there is something in it for them.
Someone that has never lied to you
Someone that has once dropped everything they’re doing to come help you with a flat tire or whatnot.
They’re Respectful
Looks you in the eye when they talk and speaks with Conviction.
This is a big one too. Someone you saw when they don’t know you’re around and you see them do a selfless act for others.
Someone who has humility. Not afraid to admit when they’re wrong
Someone that doesn’t gossip
Just overall someone you feel comfortable with. You can usually tell with your gut feeling.

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yI don’t trust any girls now. To put so much time, effort and value into 1 girl to make you happier or be your significant other is all BS. I have tried to better myself, I’ve tried to be chill, I’ve focused on myself with school and work and saving money, nothing works. I’m not some arrogant, pompous dude who drinks, sleeps around or does drugs. Nothing has worked and it’s been rejection after rejection so I just gave up, I opened up to girls and provided words from my heart and still got it stomped on. Fuck it, it’s literally made me dead inside. I will wish others well if they are happy and in relationships because I don’t want to be a bitter guy. But I have the right on who I want to trust or not, and personally I think girls are liars. Someone may read that and say “that’s a blanket statement guys lie to”. I know guys/men lie. I’m just giving my perspective to when it’s girls they probably lie more.
