Who do you absolutely trust? - Page 2

My parents, my two brothers, my wife, my business partner.

Certainly not my mother. She has betrayed and cheated me many times when I was a child and teen. I trust my wife and that is about in the "absolutely" camp.

This sincerely saddens me.

My mother and my two sisters. Really no major reason not to include my dad except that he hasn't been around as much (lived/worked abroad for most of my life).

Thanks, Plato.

no i think thats something about how you make your tie


me too, but there are many out there who feel that way

Love many, trust few, always paddle your own canoe.

sorry. double post

not sure what "absolutely trust" means though in all seriousness. i put a lot of trust in several people - my fiancee, my mom, my dad, my uncle, my brother. but i mean that's not to say i couldn't make up a ridiculous example wherein they might make some choice that was less than optimal. but none of these people would really intentionally screw me for their own purposes, if that's the question. there may be a few other friends too i really trust to do the right thing; e.g. someone close enough that i would name them executor of my estate for example. hell, there's even a chance that someday the fiancee could cheat on me... but that still doesn't mean i monitor her whereabouts when she leaves the house. in other words, the question needs clarification.

my wife, my siblings and four of my friends that I grew up with. I never "absolutely" trust anyone beside them- specially friends that I didn't grow up with.

IMO a good life lesson. Good to learn that those you think you can trust, those you would think want you to excel and would appreciate what you do for them might very well be selfish and exploitative.

+1 To answer the OP - no one

Actually...I'm not even sure I absolutely trust myself.

If that is the case, can I really trust anyone else?

My parents and my husband. I trust mostly my husband because he's been there always, sad & happy times. For my family, I don't trust them that much because sometimes they talk behind my back.
