Trust
I just spent the last 15 minutes coming up with this clever introduction into this blog post but then I realized that I'm just a little too annoyed to be thinking too much and I'm going to come out and say what's on my mind.
I thought I had my trust issues with people taken care of, but over the past couple of months I have been getting that feeling again. I feel like I always have to keep my guard up, watch what I say to and around people. I feel like my wall has been put back up and I'm crawling back into that state where I'm just a loner. I don't want to talk to people anymore because some people can't be trusted with the privacy of the conversations I have with them.
Trust. THE MOST important part of a friendship is TRUST. It is my #1 priority to make sure that my friends trust me and have the confidence to come talk to me about whatever they need and know that whatever they tell me stays with me and only me. Thus, when I tell somebody something, I would hope that it is THEIR #1 priority that whatever I tell them stays with them, and only them. If there is no trust, how could there be any communication and thus, how could there be any relationship?
Trust. This is part of the problem between me and my mother. She talks too much. I hear her talk on the phone about gossip between her other friends. I'm afraid she will talk to her friends about me. This is why I don't tell her anything.
Trust. This is why I'm known as "the quiet one" or the "stoic one". This is why my mind is forgotten. Because I don't like to talk about other people's issues. Gossip sucks. I learned that the hard way this semester. Information spreads like wildfire. You think you can tell ONE person who you thought you could trust and pretty soon the entire community knows. Makes me want to go back to the old, "loser" Alan Nguyen of high school.
Trust. Probably the most important trait I find in a human being. If I can't trust you, you can't, and won't, be my friend. And if you do consider me as your friend, I hold it as the highest honor/compliment, and I hope that you will trust me and have the confidence to come talk to me about whatever it is you want to talk about. And if I somehow manage to screw up your trust in me, I didn't mean it to happen and I would understand if you never talked to me again.
One staggering fact about me: Of all the people I know, there are only 3 people who I feel I can talk to about anything. Perhaps my biggest fear will come true...
