Do you have a friend you can trust 100%

You know when your feeling really down, and you like you’ve got the weight of the world resting on you. you really feel like you need a good old chat, and someone to share things with. How many of you would say you have a friend you can trust fully 100%? Like kind of pick up the phone, and then they come around armed with bottles of wine (and sometimes tissues lol :smile: ) I have loads of friends, but I realised the other day, I don’t have a friend I can talk to about something, and who keep it secret. Lately, I’ve really been missing that. I dont feel like I trust them enough to tell them.

i dont have anyone who i trust 100% but ive been let down alot and find it hard to trust people i try and make sure i dont trust them and tell them stuff coz i dont want to get hurt. but when things get really bad it makes u feel worse nowing u have no one to talk to about it and u feel so alone.

Nah, don't have anyone like that either really.

Although collectively, I can usually find one of my friends to rely on depending on the circumstances I'm in.

That said, it hasn't stopped me loosing my mind. Bugger it.
I have one friend I can tell most things to, but I don't think I can trust her 100%. I don't even trust my family 100%!

I've had my trust abused in the past too, so i know the feeling when you don't want to let yourself trust someone that much..

But I trust my gf. She's on hol with her girl-friends, out getting drunk etc etc, but i trust her, and she trusts me when i go on my hol. :smile:
I have a few very close mates, but i usually prefer to sort my own problems, rather than someone else. *shrugs*

I still trust my ex, I could tell her anything and she wouldn't tell anyone.

I thought I could my best mate, but then stuff i've told him has simply spun off to his girlfriend, so I guess that's a no no these days.

I have two now. I decided to increase my trust circle by telling a good friend a really dark secret and it hasn't been spread, so I have two friends I can trust 100%. Let someone in and you may get burnt a couple of times, but eventually you will find that person you can trust.

Yeah I could trust my ex 100%, I reckon that most of my mates I could trust, but I generally don't tell them stuff coz i'm too ashamed or some other lame reason.

I wouldn't say I have a friend that I trust 100%, but I have two friends who would come over armed with wine, tissues, chocolate etc... actually one would expect me to go to hers but she has her own place so thats ok lol!
With secrets I would trust one friend pretty much 100%, but she did get off with my off-limits ex so I wouldn't trust her completely for other stuff! :eek:

Weird that isn't it? I guess it's because she's slowly become my best friend, and we know so much about each other, etc.

Not a friend. My boyfriend though. Hes the only one I can trust 100% apart from my mother and my father.

I dont trust anyone really, well not much, i trust some people more than others but you can never really trust anyone 100%

The only person i trust 100% is myself and my beloved cat.

Not 100%. I have probably 4 friends who I trust 99% but nobody knows everything...

No. Certainly no-one in the group I hang out with. I'm mates with a guy whom I trust about 80%, but I don't speak to his other mates so he may have told them stuff. He's sent me msn conversations where a supposed friend was bitching about me, yet that makes me think, maybe he's shown my conversations to others. I know some absolutely legendary people, but don't see/speak to them very often and, tbh don't know them all that well anymore, so couldn't trust them 100%.

I've been betrayed too many times :cool:
i think you can trust a friend 100%, it takes time but as you grow up together it's like your brothers/sisters....
