Are you very guarded when it comes to your heart or are you more trusting?

[Anonymous]

I'm very guarded because I've been burned badly before, so it takes a long time to be open and free with someone

I'm guarded. I generally don't trust that many people in life.

I'm not guarded. I've been burned, but that hasn't prevented me from treating new relationships differently

I am very open with my heart. I believe it's the only way you can be in a relationship

I'm guarded in the beginning but become trusting as time goes on

I been hurt really bad by a guy I wasn't even official with but I was defiantly very much in love with him... It still hurts now... but I still will go in trusting a new person... I would love to find my true love...

Very guarded. I don't mind talking to women, and I will talk with them openly about anything related to love. But I won't give her my heart unless she earns my trust.

Thanks for the MHO. ❤️

I am very selective instead... then I can be quite open and then, trusting is not an issue

I give the same way I want to receive but unfortunately I am guarded because of my life experiences to protect myself , sadly trusting someone completely isn’t easy for me to do anymore , I made that mistake plenty of times to the point I no longer allow myself to to be vulnerable that way anymore , someone has to consistently show me they are trustworthy or respectful for me to be able to give them my heart completely , otherwise my natural shield will stop it for my own safety and sanity. Why I no longer rush into relationships with girls’ even though I love girls’ I can’t trust them immediately, I have witnessed and experienced so much shit throughout my life that I will protect myself if any of those things trigger that i experienced or witnessed before. Why it’s harder for me to give myself to a girl completely until she proves to me that I am her one and only , otherwise she will just be a friend to me , I don’t hate her I just can’t give her my heart completely if what she told me doesn’t line up to what she said to me. So many girls’ have told me things I wanted to hear to eventually find out she was blowing smoke up my ass , so I don’t allow myself to fall for nonsense whatsoever. I only like girls’ that give to me the same way I give to them , respect and honesty , if I don’t feel respected or feel she is being honest with me , her chances with me are very slim. I was married to a girl for 20 years until she decided I was no longer her priority and just a convenience to her all of a sudden , I realized I couldn’t force her to be what I wanted her to be , so I accepted it for what it was and moved on from her. She then decided to try to keep one foot in the door with me so she can continue making her plans and I put a stop to that immediately , and realized I am not her convenience and told her to get the fuck out of my life

I especially have a hard time trusting friends
That's why I look for online friends

I am guarded enough to filter out those who aren't serious.
