I trust all my online friends. I have no friends in real life to trust though.

If I feel the slightest distrust for anyone, they are not my friends, end of.

Wow. I can't trust anyone to the extent that I am so sure. I envy you. I always can see ulterior motives, even if they're not there.

I used to be a very easily trusting person, but got burned repeatedly. Now my trust is extremely hard to earn, and although I can trust my friends to be who they are (funny people I enjoy hanging out with), I can't trust them enough to confide in them or trust them with anything really important.

I used to trust about EVERYBODY when I was younger... and it most definitely wasn't good. I've become better now, although most of the time I don't see what's wrong with giving people a chance for something and end up regretting it. I used to have a 'friend' who stole from me, talked with everybody else behind my back, used me for many things and lied to me. I suspected some things, but it wasn't until another of my friends told me that the so-called 'friend' had really been manipulating me that I decided to seperate myself from her. I really don't regret that. My other friend who I have mentioned is the one I trust most out of my RL friends, although she makes fun of me sometimes. But she's better than about anybody else.

My best friend, who I trust with anything, is in fact someone I met online. People online are generally less likely to secretly form against you, and that is something I appreciate.

I don't trust mine. At all.

Keeping them at arms length is the best way.

If I trust someone, he/she is my friend.

I trust people as long as I have a good reason to.

I used to trust everyone, but now do no really believe much of what anyone says. People lie constanly, they cheat, they say things you want to hear if it will benifit them in some way.
