The biggest mistake I ever made was trusting someone too much. This is going to be a ranting room for the next 235 words so here we go. I am a happy person. I consider myself an optimist and a realist. I like to make people happy and it naturally helps to trust people. In this way I can create positive vibe and a fun surrounding which I adore.
So I met this person once, a long time ago, who I thought was rather interesting. The more I got to know the person, the more I got a feeling that they were lost and needed good company. I failed quite a few times and I took that as my fault. I thought I could actually help someone and when I became emotionally attached those failures hurt. So I tried to detach myself and that worked partially but the emotion was always there. I did not realize that I was the person changing more than anyone else. I was becoming different to suit someone else. I was being mean to good people because I felt envious of them.
But the most important thing was that I trusted this person to use common sense; to not jump from one guy to another as quickly as Paris Hilton moving from Prada to Gucci. So when I realized that she had done the switch faster than Hilton ever could, I was more than a little shocked. I did the first good thing I could, I apologized to the people I was mean to. I do not think I am going to stop trusting people but I will have to change my understanding of certain types of people. I made a mistake but I can write about it. In times like this I am glad that I have the friends I can lean on. It makes mistakes so much easier to live with.
Trust is always a hard thing to give up, and when someone ruins it for you then it is only harder the next time.
