~ I apologize for the longness of this passage ~ I have always had a problem trusting people. I guess it's because I have been betrayed and screwed over a lot in my life, and I don't really trust anyone because of this I think. I would say I have around 390 acquaintances, 150 friends, but only about 10 true friends I like to talk to. I will admit, I have trouble with my social life, i'm only fourteen and like to talk about things most teens would find boring, like politics, and the trouble in the middle east, and human rights in Myanmar and stuff like that. I just think it's interesting, but because of talking about this instead of the new iPad I don't have many true, true friends. I also have only had 1 true girlfriend, but she was kind of ashamed of me (I am not very popular at school and was deeply saddened by her betrayal) and wanted to keep it a secret. Although I loved her with all my heart, it didn't end well, it ended up like the textbook teen movie, the most popular chick ends up with football quarterback, although they broke up soon. I have only had 3 girls like me instead of the over 9000 that most of the popular guys get. So as you can see I am not very popular, and a lot of people hate me to put it bluntly. I have made a lot of friends, who say they are my friends but aren't really, and end up screwing me over, so I eventually lose them and screw them over way worse. I know it is not good to do and that you should treat others the way you want to be treated, but I believe in an eye-for-an-eye. So basically, I live by this rule, trust no one, and most of the time, don't believe what they tell you. Is this natural? I think not, but I just want to know your opinions and if you live this way. And again, I apologize for the longness of this passage. Haha, nah, I can't be a straight up G, im a pacifist.

Most of the people you call "popular" are for the most part not sincerely liked. People are nice to them because they think that being their friends will make them popular too. It's normal to not want to trust after having been hurt, but it's a hard way to live always looking over your shoulder. Give people the benefit of the doubt and if they hurt you walk away knowing it's on them and not on you.

i don't trust ni99ers or mexicans. As soon as you trust one of them, you'll get a gun in your face and a gaping bloody hole in your skull, all for 40 bucks.

Apparently, if a person can't trust anyone it means they also can't trust themselves - half of me believes this but then half of me doesn't. I don't trust anyone either and because of it I don't have 'best friends' I just find that I only like a person up to a certain point and then there's a wall I have. You know, in many ways you are right not to trust anyone, simply because I don't believe that any human can be 100% trustworthy, no-one's perfect, including yourself, and it certainly doesn't harm you to think twice before you do trust anyone - saves you getting hurt in the future. What is trust anyway? Everyone's idea and level or trust is different. For me, as soon as I feel uncomfortable about something/someone, I back off from that situation, as in my gut instinct has already told me if I can trust someone or not.
