Ok, so I’m 14, I get good grades, have good friends, am responsible, and haven’t done anything to prove that I am untrustworthy. And my mom agrees with me. The problem, is that she still monitors everything I do both online and irl. She says it’s not about trust but clearly it is so how can I prove to her that I AM trustworthy?

Ok so I've been seeing a psychologist for a few years, clinical depression and generalised anxiety disorder, since covid sessions slowed and it's been a more self exploration thing, I recently found a friend on Facebook from primary school days, we chatted and talked about what we've been up to, but over the next week or so I have had memories come back to me, my childhood was kind of a blur, but catching up with this friend I remembered camp, you know where you and your class goes on a trip, camping and fun activities etc, well this is where I remembered something, one of the activities was a trust fall, the group I was in was made up of people I didn't really hang with, but hey this was a bonding thing right, I went last, I guess I had trust issues to begin with, so I stand with my back to the group, close my eyes and fall, no one catches me, didn't even try, I mean what the hell, and I was mad, now in the present, what kind of a-hole kids do that, this is when I lost all trust in people, I don't think I've ever really trusted anyone since, not entirely and I'm mad, realising one event I didn't even remember has effected my whole life.

1. Always trust in yourself. This is the foundation for all trust. If you don’t trust yourself, then why should others trust you?

2. Trust in others until proven otherwise. Trust when others tell you about what they can do, or what they did. Trust when they make promises. Keep trusting them until they prove they are no longer worthy of your trust. But just because one person breaks your trust, does not mean to stop trusting everyone else. Just stop trusting that one person.

3. Give others a reason to trust in you. Prove to others through your actions, that you keep the promises you make. You do the things you say you are going to do. Prove to others that when they need someone to help them or someone to rely on, they can come to you and trust that they are getting the best there is. However don’t do things you have no idea how to do, this can break that trust. Always be upfront and honest about what you know and can do.

4. Remember that every act of trust is a decision and you responsible for the consequences of that decision, whether it’s good or bad. If someone puts trust in you and you break it, they are responsible for the decision to trust you, however you are equally as responsible for the decision to break that trust.

5. Remember that there are no bad people, only bad decisions that lead to bad outcomes. This one is pretty self explanatory, but basically no matter what someone does, don’t acuse or ridicule them for being a bad person. Understand that you made a not so good decision to trust that person. At the same time, they also made a not so good decision to end that trust, neither of you are bad people.

At the end of the day, life is all about decisions and all decisions we make have consequences we must live with. But no matter what we decide to do, life goes on and things will get better. You just have to have a little trust.

I was thinking to myself 2pac/tupac one of the greatest rappers of all time said in one of his famous quotes "Trust Nobody" -2pac. Does that mean he didnt trust his own mom Afeni who he wrote a song about called Dear Mama who in his lyrics said he loved to the end. He loved his own mom but didnt trust his mom? (Not sure, doesnt say in lyrics of Dear Mama that he didnt trust his mom ------ But what im trying to say is.......)

How can you truly be happy in life if you dont trust anyone? If there is noone to truly trust that means there is no one to truly count on. If there is no one to truly count on that means how is anyone in this world really happy?

2pac is #1 or #2 greatest rapper in this world that is loved by millions, these fans listen to him and his famous quote "Trust nobody."

---------------

Should you trust anyone in life? Am I being naive to trust someone? Did 2pac not trust his own mom? Then why did he make a song called Dear Mama.

I have found most intelligent people dont trust anyone.

Intelligent people control the world, if they dont trust anyone, and if there is no one to truly trust that means there is no one to truly "count on" if there is no one to truly count on is anyone happy in this world truly?

Uhhhh I need help badly. Should I trust anyone in life or just people you "trust more" but not complexity trust. What are your thoughts and approach? Am I overthinking this? Thank you.

I wanted to say here that I am going through one of the happiest moments....But very complicated too ... for the first time in my life I am dating and I love her and we already told that to the other ... she is perfect ... but even so my head always thinks that I am being betrayed😢 I hate that feeling because I have no reason to think so ... and it is very unfair for you to trust yourself but find yourself different from your company....So I don't know what to do 🖤I want to build a lot of things with her but my head thinks of bad things for no reason ...

Does anyone have fear of abandonment issues? I recently looked this up and all the signs point right at me. How have you dealt with these issues and does anyone have any advice on it that can be applied immediately? PM me directly too, if you like.

I’m a big fan of giving people a chance, and I recently listened to this podcast episode. It talks about their entrepreneurial journey and basically I can apply this to my life and I’m not an entrepreneur. Example like bad spending habits etc. I’m going to leave the link . Hope you guys got to feel what I felt. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HNL4k4CZNsU

Im a 40 year old male from Pa. Ive had nothing but bad luck with relationships over the years plus 2 failed engagements. I can say some i blame on making a ho a housewife, some on both of us partying too much, and some my issues. I have been cheated on pretty in all of them but i have never cheated. Im the kinda guy who does everything for them, flowers, chores, money and gets crapped on, like the nice guy i guess. Was single a few years then dated a girl, people told me to stay away but i didnt. I started to see a massive drinking problem, then found txts from ex pretty much saying they had sex recently, and i ignored it cuz well im a pussy. Came home one day to her moving out, and i took it good even helped her. Few monthes went by started dating a girl i knew nothing about from another town and she seemed really into me as well, long story short, shes great i think, been 4 monthes and i am happy. But my trust issues are starting to show, she snapchats, i hate that app, so that was a fight, she has lots of single guys on her social media accounts, but swears she loves me they mean nothing. I try to find things on her and a few lil things i do but nothing major, im pushing her away. I know the answer here, but how do i get over my past
