like if they say something that could be insulting, do u think they didn't really mean it, or if someone does something that could be thought of as hurtful do u give them the benefit of the doubt that it's not?

My co~workers just told me I always have an excuse for everyone when some one is saying something negative about them or I always see the good in people. I think we should give the benefit of the doubt. Some people just can't put their opinion in the right words, which may sound mean or hurtful, even though it's not. Remember it's just how they feel it doesn't make it true at all....

I usually try to give people the benefit of the doubt, unless I've been burned by them before.

I try to think the best of everyone and give them the benefit of the
doubt, but I am kind of sensitive so when someone does a
number on me , I get hurt and tend to avoid them

No, I usually tend to think the worst because 9 times out of 10, people suck. This way if I think the worst, then I'm not shocked when I get screwed over.

Yes, I do think the best of people and I usually take their word, until they show me different.
Most times when a person states something, when angry, it's their true feelings coming out. Now, the person may apologize but he/she meant what was said.
Be blessed.

That depends on their history. If they barely do it, then it was accidental, and they didn't mean to insult anyone. however, if you see that person constantly, then no, they did that on purpose...
