    As it says above, who do you trust? Do you trust anyone at all?

    Personally, I trust no-one with my feelings, but trust everyone with everything else :3

    What about you?

    On an emotional level extremely close friends, my mom, and my therapist, but other than that no one. For other things, like taking notes for me if I miss a class or bringing me something that I asked for, friends and co-workers/classmates.

    I trust everyone with various things, often to different extents. That includes myself. It's one reason I didn't become a EMT, surgeon, etc etc etc.

    I don't really trust anyone (bad childhood experiences) but I'm honest to everyone (including personal things) i try to keep my emotions hidden though since i still kinda expect people to turn on me.

    Nobody, absolutely. But some folks, they have it more than others.

    Day by day, situation by situation basis, basically.

    I don't give my trust out immediately, but I'm not going to withhold it indefinitely either.

    You obtain my trust bit by bit, over a period of time; just like you can lose it, bit by bit, over a period of time. Some actions might swing one way more than the other, but there is, usually, a chance to continually gain my trust. This works for me, because immediately giving it out, often times is premature and can bite me in the ass. Gradually, though, allows a more solid bond, and is a collection of checkpoints for growth, be it individually or involving others.

    To add to this, I trust myself to not trust myself. In the right/wrong circumstances, it is hard to tell what I'll do, because "auto pilot" kicks in, sometimes.

    In terms of trusting someone not to do anything that would hurt or harm me intentionally I would say my mother. That said, I can't always trust her with everything, she doesn't always make good decisions and it has had an impact on me in the past, but she doesn't deliberately or knowingly do these things, it's just how she is.

    My best friend I trust a lot, but not with everything.

    People who had proven that they deserve my trust. People who have seen my weak and strong side. So basically, my bestfriend irl and few people here on EC.

    Nobody really. I wish I had a close friend in which I trusted a lot, but the truth is that I don't have very many friends, so it kind of sucks. I'm pretty good at solving things myself so I can handle it, but it would be nice to have a friend I can trust completely.

    I don't trust anyone fully, not even my parents or my psychologist. I think that's what makes this so hard, knowing that I only have myself.

    Group projects at school have taught me to trust no one.

    My best friends and family, most other people suck donkey dick even though they don't realize they're untrustworthy.

    I trust my mom above all else. She has been the pillar that has kept me alive several times. I also trust my two best friends. I have known them for 15 years and they are practically family. I have no reason not to trust them and that will never change. Everyone else is hard to earn any semblance of trust. It doesn't mean I act unfriendly, I just do not throw my trust around.

    Most of the time I tend to keep everything to myself until I can't take it anymore.
    I don't know exactly who I trust, but... I guess my best friend (she has lots in common with me, and at the same time nothing at all) and my boyfriend. Also my mom, but... The truth is I never feel comfortable sharing things with her. I always thinks she's going to judge me and make questions I'm not comfortable with answering.

    Anyone who I think is a good person is someone I can trust. But there are different levels of trust, like I trust my best friends before I trust someone I just meant. I'll put some trust in anyone until they prove me wrong.

    I fully trust my parents and my closest friends. I know people say "don't trust anyone", but I can't live that way. I do trust the people closest to me and they've never given me any reason not to.
