... just enough to speak on a subject, but not the entire story????

now consider this, suppose he told you only half the truth, may be the part which is untold appears to be more dangerous and disastrous.
look, never ever believe in half information. because half info always leads to unworthy results and conclusions. wait for each and every fact to get revealed and then, take any concrete decision. this will materialize your personality and judgement power.
good luck

Possibly. I guess it would depend on his history and how 'need-to-know' the information is. If he has a habit of being dishonest and withholding critical information then he probably shouldn't be trusted. On the other hand, there may be valid reasons why he opted not to tell the whole truth that don't necessarily detract from his trustworthiness.
I'm not sure exactly what the situation is but whether this guy can be trusted would have a lot to do with the content being concealed, the context in which it was done and the overall character of the guy concerned.
Hope this helps :).

Only 50% of the time. There should be no reason why he cannot tell you the truth. If you're dating him, relationships are based on honesty and trust. If he's not telling the entire story, he's breaking the bases of your relationship. Communication is the key. If he did nothing wrong, than there shouldn't be a reason why he couldn't tell you, if he did nothing wrong, what's the big deal? Hiding only makes you more suspicious and that doesn't make you completely insecure, but makes you question what else he hasn't told you. It also depends on what he's telling half the truth on.......if it sounds too shady for your liking, he's lying.

Trust is not an overnight thing, it is gained in time. And telling half of the truth is still a lie! Trust should be full not half or partial. you can tell him about it. And maybe he is protecting something maybe it's your feelings.... he doesn't want to hurt you. If it is so...talk to him why you can't have the full truth....he might have resentments,assure him that you can be his confidant...nothing to be worried either and that you can handle the situation....with his help of course.

It really depends on the motives to it. If it's to spare someone's feelings than that is sometimes understandable. If it's something that was supposed to be kept a secret then he shouldn't have started it. Aside from that, lying can be a bad habit. I for one couldn't trust someone who was lying to me. And even if it is just half truths all the time, it's hard to trust someone. It doesn't seem like he's reciprocating trust.

My suggestion is that if you can't tell me the hole story don't bother telling me the half of it.
It is a matter of trust but I have learned that it is hard to trust anyone!!! We are human beings and if I have something that is personal I keep it personal!!!!!!!!
You never know if that friend or acquaintance can in the future betray you.

Speaking from experience, absolutely not. The person I know who is this way gave me just enough truth to make the lies seem believable.

no! i can not put my trust in a person who doesn't tell the whole truth... i don't even trust someone who hides things to avoid telling the truth.
however, if you take this path you gotta know that only a few are left there to trust!!!

i live with the same problem. in truth i try to trust him as much as i can BUT there is always a doubt in my mind. no matter the subject i always wonder what hes not telling me and why. when you live with it for awhile you began to question almost everything he says. its hard to live this way. i love him but i wonder.........
