Hiya Kid...haven't talked to you in a long time...how ya been?

To answer your question...myself...i trust way to easily. I believe what a person is saying (niave...probably so to an extent)

But i don't share a lot of my personal self with someone. Even after knowing them for awhile...i always feel kinda insecure at what they may say back. People take that as me being distant and not enjoying their company...when in reality...i like being with them very much. Make sense?

As far as what i can overlook? I overlook a lot of things...but don't we all? I mean none of us are perfect...so what might be everyday things that you do...could be a total nuisance to the person your with. ie...i'm picky about my clothes and hair...where he might not be.

The old saying...What flaws you have, imperfections and traits is what makes you different...that's what makes you...YOU. JMHO

Morin Harry Bit of a deep one for 7am and i've just got up and have a new puppy going a bit mad, will come back to it, hope your ok.

Trust to me means that I can simply be myself. If I feel comfortable to do that then I know that I'm in a good place with that particular person.

Do I trust everyone implicitly? No Why - because I've been hurt by people who I thought loved me and cared for me and now that trust needs time to develop and grow.

As for concealing things - if its important no, but truly does everything need to be revealed? I honestly don't think so and therefore its a matter of deciding what's important to share.

As for me being really me - yes, I think I can say that. Am I changing and growing as I learn and discover about myself - for sure. Some of my viewpoints have certainly changed has I've experienced life and grown from things/circumstances that have happened along the way.

I, also, hold to these things. I sometimes think some of it is experience in relating to people, some of it is Cultural, some of it is What I was taught by my Parents.

Some of it is from being shy.

Some of it is from being handicapped, in a" Normal" World.

Hiya CJ...hope your well sweetie. I agree with all that you said. And i might add one more thing...maybe it's a name thing??

In HS, yes the meaning of my name did get to me. But as an Adult, I know I don't have to live up to what my name means, I can create a positive role despite the meaning of my name. (Thank-G-d, for good Parental Teaching).

Good one, though.

Good to see you to Fellow Sister of the same name.

How are you? I also hope things are well for you too Sweetie.

Are you a Pisces, by any chance?

Life's good, overall, won't complain because not many really give a shit anyway.

I trust (seemingly) way too easily, and believe that people are who and what they say they are. Unfortunately, things aren't always the way they seem to be, and (sadly) you start to wonder about everyone else you've met.


Imprefections aside, what the question is really about it is, who's the real you? Are you real?


Can you really be the true you with those you meet on CS?

I'm well....thank you for asking And no...maybe that's were our differences lay...you're a kinda soul I'm a capricorn...just another ole goat.

Harry, don't let one bad person make you think that everyone is a fake.

Like I said - block them and move on as life is too short to waste on people who are crazy. There is no reasoning with them to resolve your issues when in reality there is nothing to resolve but their imagination of things.

Oh, ok. I guess we did have to have a few differences. But, Heres to good Friends and Sisters otherwise,

G'nite Campus Closing.

trust me.... yall dont want to know !!!!

yes, you are correct, things do go wrong, sadly, but it's just a fact of life.

We know that already!

Hi Morgan


I know, a bit deep, but something that's been bothering me for a while.


Maybe I'm an idiot, but when I tell someone something, I expect it to be between the two of us, and not to be shared with anyone else.

How, or can you trust others to do the same, or is it even possible?


Hope the puppy isn't going nuts, although they do tend to.

well... glad to know im finally getting through to some of yall !!!

It took me almost all my life (well, at least the part I lived untill now, hope it's not over yet) to understand that....

Trust is not something you give,

it's something you have to earn.



Most important thing in ANY relationship

I can be a smart cookie sometimes! Still disagree with you on the other thread but eventually you might see the wisdom in my words!

wonderful post
