Character counts-Trust TRUST is a really big thing in a relationship between 2 people. If there’s someone you cannot trust, you shouldn’t associate as much as you should be if they’re one of your friends. You would be telling someone, probably your friends or family you feel like you can trust them, stuff about yourself and you would probably expect them to keep it a secret if you don’t want them telling anyone about what you told them because you feel like you could trust them. Trust is always a really big thing in between a friendship or relationship between family and friends. If I found out that one of my friends or family members were lying to me, it really depends on what they were lying to me and how serious it was. If it was something not too serious, I most likely wouldn’t care too much about it and I would probably let it go. But if I felt like it was something serious, I’d be really disappointed and I’d probably not talk to them for a while, depending on how bad the situation was. And me, I take stuff seriously because I don’t like playing around and all that. The only persons I can actually trust with anything are my 3 best friends, sister, my mom and dad. Because I’ve been able to trust them with anything all my life and they’ve never gave me a reason not to be able to trust them. I’ve had some friends in the past that I wasn’t able to trust and I felt like they shouldn’t be my friend because If I’m not able to trust them once, what’s the chance I’m going to be able to trust them in the future? What was the point of having someone you call a friend that you can’t trust? Trust could usually be the number one thing in a relationship between you and a friend or you and a family member. Trust is reliance on the integrity, strength, ability, surety of a person or thing. The condition of one to whom something has been entrusted. One time I stole a cookie out of the cookie jar and my sister didn’t tell a soul because she wanted me to enjoy it and

    I first learn about “trusts” working in my father’s grocery store. Some customers would come into the store and ask if they could get X or Y to trust. My father would get out this thick book and write the name of the customer and the list of products. He would hand over the product without collecting the money; back then, I was looking for the customer to hand over the money, but he/she would quietly exit the store. This was not good for business, because when he goes to the market place to purchase his goods, he always have to pay for his products. A concept I am still trying to grasp because at age 89, he continue to do the same thing.…

    Trust is also known as the confidence one person places in another and it is the true foundation of a relationship, so much so that if it was not present the relationship would have a much greater chance of breaking apart. One of the seven ways that intimate relationships differ from casual relationships is trust because once it is understood that partners can trust each other the stability of the relationship and the intimacy increases.

    The friends that I used to have were very unreliable, trusting them was more work than it should have been. Seeing how they treated others around them made me change my opinion about them. To this day I am still friends with Carla, my other friends and I don’t talk anymore. Friends who you can trust and rely on without thinking are the people that you should strive to be around. Choosing which friends to trust, and to not trust is a tiring thing to do, but you should always choose someone who you know would stick up for you no matter the…

    Trust is a very valuable thing is one’s life. Without trust, it is next to impossible to go through life. Graham Green happens to agree with this as she had once said, “… it is impossible o go through life without trust…” One can interpret this quote as trust being an essential aspect to life and in order to go through it, there must be someone or something a person can put his or her faith in. Two works of literature that reflect this quote are The Fault in Our Stars by John Greene and A Raisin in the Sun by Lorraine Hansberry.…

We have to trust people in our lives every single day. Trust helps us to have relationships and friendships. Trust is defined as believing in someone in the dictionary. Although this seems simple, it is not that easy to understand and comprehend. Trust has a deep meaning as we continue to grow and change in life. We go through many things that make us change as we live, grow, and experience different challenges.

    True Friends can be trusted with the deepest secrets. You can trust them with your life and you know that it will be safe.

    Always be honest, even if it means standing alone. You may also lose friends too when you are honest, and that is an indication that they weren’t your true friends to begin with. I believe in Karma, and karma bites back ever so strongly when you are not telling the truth, and when you hide something from friends and family, when you do something terrible to someone. It always bites back and more powerful. I am sure everyone in life has told a lie here or there, and I know nobody is perfect. Sometimes we lie to others to make others feel good, sometimes we fib, and make up white lies, but nothing beats honesty. If you are afraid of hurting someones feelings, don’t be. I would rather have an honest enemy telling me the truth to my face, then a fake friend who doesn’t speak up and who doesn’t tell me the truth and says terrible things behind my back. Sometimes the truth hurts and we must always be prepared for it. I would rather be hurt, then be lied to. Being lied to is far more worse than anything else in this world.…

    Good friends

    One of the most important things that good friend has is integrity. In other words, a good friend is honest with you even when it means that it may hurt you to hear the truth. One example of this is in dating. No guy or girl wants to hear that the person that they have been dating is cheating on them. It’s worse for them to hear it from a friend, because having someone that close to them “break the news’” puts them in a position where even if they don’t want to believe their friend, they have to at least acknowledge what was said by there friend. At the same time it is also said that the truth will set you free. In many cases, If a “friend” is willing to lie to a person just to keep them from being upset at them, then they do not really care about that person. There are situations where it is best not to tell all of the truth or to lie, but that’s only if the truth will bring physical harm to the person or the person will bring physical harm to themself. In all other cases, lying is not something that friends do to each other. A good friend will tell you what the truth is even if it meant that they would no longer be your friend.…

    Trust

    Trust is the very thing that everybody in this world desires, or at least should desire from one another. Who wants to have a friendship or relationship without trust? Nobody does. Without trust, there is no friendship, and without friendship, there is no love. I believe that trust is an even greater compliment than to be loved! I believe George Macdonald said it best when he stated "To be trusted is a greater compliment than to be loved." When I read this quote for the first time, I thought to myself, "Wow that is so true. How can you be loved if you are not trusted first?"…

    Trust is essential to true friendship. We all need someone with whom we can share our lives, thoughts, feelings, and frustrations. We need to be able to share our deepest secrets with someone, without worrying that those secrets will end up on the Internet the next day! Failing to be trustworthy with those intimate secrets can destroy a friendship in a hurry. Faithfulness and loyalty are key to true friendship. Without them, we often feel betrayed, left out, and lonely. In true friendship, there is no backbiting, no negative thoughts, no turning away.…
