I want a quote and advice about how I can go back to trusting people...mainly boys?

I'm a freshmen in college and i'm just so sick of letting my guard down and trusting ';Boyfriends'; just to have them hurt me.





Basically I have no trust for boys anymore, I don't let anyone get 2 close. I really like this guy but i won't let him get close. Will it ever get easier to trust other agein...should I bother trusting them?





Also if u had any good quote about trust that would be great!





something that is close 2 this saying or means the same thing:


';how do you trust


when everyone you have trusted


and let your shield down for


has hurt you...';I want a quote and advice about how I can go back to trusting people...mainly boys?
I sympathize having been in the same boat. Happily a virgin until 28 and now married to a great guy. You don't have to let them get close to you as a boyfriend. Try them as friends first. If a guy isn't willing to spend a year (min 6 months) being your friend then he wouldn't last long term anyway. Don't tell them in advance there is something after friends. Tell them up front that guys are scum and you don't want a boyfriend. The really good ones (few and far between though they are) will stick around anyway.





Quote: ';Boys are dumb, throw rocks at them.';


or


Cliche: ';Trust has to be earned.';I want a quote and advice about how I can go back to trusting people...mainly boys?
SORRY THAT DON'T WORK...





JESUS SAID: LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.





DO UNTO OTHERS AS YE WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU.
';Love, for him, had been a storm, full of boundless pleasure and abject terror. For her, it simply had been.';





I think it's an opposite in your case. Trusting isn't easy, especially when it's required in every relationship you have. So I can only advise you to open up your mind and don't go into a relationship with biased aforethought. Good luck finding the right guy to trust and I'd recommend you boot all other un-trustworthy guys outta your life. They're not worth breaking your heart on. You go, girl!
';trust your gut'; its the only way to go girl
First of all , abstinence keeps you from getting hurt that can't be fixed.


Abstinence RULES!





A saying,......hmmmmmmmmm,.............


YES! PSALM 91.





It talks about trust, in angels, and how they hold you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone, and how your enemies will be your footstool, and ALL GOOD STUFF!





Don't sweat the small stuff, and it's ALL small stuff.





Get right with God, and get your mind off of guys, and He will, one day, put one RIGHT ON YOUR DOORSTEP--one that won't hurt you and one that you can trust.





Besides, if you are still calling them 'boys', ---they are not old enough to not be but after one thing. A good man( or guy) will respect you.
Hey. There are good and bad out there. Ultimately, you have to trust yourself that you're going to get wiser at working out the difference between the two.





Life is about taking risks, but it's also about learning from your mistakes.





No-one is immune to being fooled by someone, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't learn to trust. Being fearful of everyone will make your life miserable, I suggest.





So, 'get back on the horse' a little wiser than you were before you met this boy and he let you down.
Proverbs 2 - 5 : 8 .. Trust in the Lord with all thine heart ; and lean not unto thine own understanding, In all thy ways acknowledge Him , and he shall direct thy paths . Be not wise in thy own eyes : fear the Lord and depart from evil . It shall be health to thy navel , and marrow to thy bones ..... Basically you should pray and ask the Lord for guildance , and ask God to send the man He has chosen for you when He is ready to send him , not when you want him to come , you must excercise patience and wait for the Lord . He knows your needs and who He has in store for you ! May God Bless with Peace and Understanding
How do you get back on the horse if you're just going to be vulnerable to falling off of it again?


You must get back on the horse again. Otherwise what is even the point in living? Life is chance, everything you do and say is a chance or a risk. Everytime you cross the street, everytime you drive your car, you risk your life. Everytime you say something to someone, you risk hurting their feelings, you risk offending them, or you risk telling them something they don't want to hear.


You have to live life risking. Living is risking death. Dying is risking being forgotton. Being forgotton is risking never even existing.





If you feel different, if you are not ready to be risking your emotions again, then it is obviouse you need a break from relationships. Your heart needs a break, and you need to renew your confidence in yourself.
