Do you trust your friends? Do you trust your family? Do you trust your significant other?

Who do you/would you trust most?

Trust family and GF. Depending on what it is certain freinds can be trusted.

I can't pick just one option from the poal, so...

I trust my wife with pretty much everything. There are some limits, but we haven't run into them.

I trust my parents with a lot, not quite as much as the wife, but close.

Family as a whole...some I trust a lot, some I wouldn't give a dollar for a Coke without expecting them to spend it on crack (literally).

Friends, I have some that I trust quite a bit, some that are more casual. Can't narrow it down more than that.

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

I have two friends that I would trust with my life. I do trust my family, but they have been wrong a couple of times.

their are certain degrees of trust... like I don't think I can trust my 90 year old grandmother to babysit my 2 year old.

I trust my wife almost 100% (she's a wonderful confidant and i know I can rely on her to be there for me, but when it comes to stuff like remembering to send a letter or pay a bill I'm on my own). My family is a case-by-case basis. My father is dependable and usually has sound advice, my mother is always behind me, but is too busy to be fully dependable. My brother and sister I can really count on for most things, but I don't share that many secrets.

i trust everyone on that list

my wife i trust for everything. even the darkest life issues.
my parents i trust for lots of stuff. not emotional issues though.
i trust my friends for a lot of practical and social issues and things.
hard to get into my circle of friends though. i dont have a lot but i consider my close coworker and my brother in law for example 'my friends' . i would trust my bank account with these people.

but like acidicboy said, there are varying degrees. i dont trust my friends with making me a great korean meal. sure, they will know their limits and capacities and tell me so. so that way i trust them as well.

How far do you take the verification step? Would you hire a PI before proposing to make sure your GF wasn't cheating?
