Gain their trust by being REAL,and keep promises that you make to them, (if at all possible), and show them with your actions(by being there when they really need you in times of trouble)and always lend an ear w/ things that they need to vent on. Actions always speak louder than any words, so do what you say you are gonna do, cuz when you are in need of a friend, who knows , that person that your showing kindness to, might very well be there to show you kindness back someday when you are in need of a friend. Being a true friend is loving them no matter what they do to you(always forgives)...... a true fiend always shows themselves friendly no matter what the situation. Let them know that you ARE someone who gives a rip whether they live or die, and that you care about their needs. Laugh with them, cry with them, and give some of your time to them, and you WILL gain their trust and prove to them that YOU are a TRUE friend. A TRUE friend is always loyal and more precious than any earthly thing we could ever dream of. In the Bible it talks about being a friend in
(KJV)Proverbs 17:17 "A friend loveth at all times..."
Proverbs 18:24 "A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother",
Pr 27:6 "Faithful are the wounds of a friend; but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful."
James 2:23 "And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God."
John 15:13 "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." (these are just a few)

I have that problem of big time trusting people cause of being treaated so damn bad. My friends try to be there for me all the time, most of the time they can't understand what I go through and abandon me cause of my insecurities.
But cause I'm totally like your friend...you have to allow them time and as much as they need to build up there self esteem. Sometimes you are gonna wanna give up and call it quits cause most of the people abandoned me.. But a true friend stay around for the bad time , the worst times and all the times they wanna kill themselfs over chicks, or didn't things. I really didn't have that true friend ..one of my friends abandoned me for around 2-3 years cause he said and I quote " I didn't know what to say to you" and i told him a true wouldn't bail and not contact me for about 2-4 years and treat me like i was a no body....maybe me feel worse cause he didn't give a damn...but there is nothing i can do.

nicely why do no longer you be somebody's genuine pal. surely looking forward to others to be superb/genuine to your self is often harm and sophisticated. Be a great individual to everybody you should be actual and genuine with your prevalent persons or some you like and later or quicker you will hit upon they grew to become into your ultimate friends. social networking web content / kin / golf equipment / wellbeing club / place of work / nieghbours / joggers park are all obtainable places to locate persons with same activity you could %. some ones and initiate protecting relationship with them. And approximately understanding their genuinity remember one element you have no longer have been given any rights to assume something from others. yet yeah be careful in finding out on them as though they are with you no longer on your money / status. gud success.

Just be there for them when they need to talk. Honestly that is the best thing a friend can do for a friend who has issues. Soon your friend will realize that you are being true!

a way to prove u are a true friend is to let them know you are there for them no matter what. tell them some of ur secrets, and maybe they will trust you with some of theirs. just dont turn ur back on them when they do need u though.

Well, sounds to me like you really are a true friend, and maybe your friend is actually a true friend too because he/she feels comfortable mistreating you...I wouldn't just be a jerk to a perfect stranger though I could be wrong.

you have to start with small things, like having them trust you to take care of their pet or something while they are gone, then just build up. talk with them openly about things in your life, good and bad, so that they feel like YOU are trusting them.

takes time and effort. show that you care but not hypocritic. i'm such sort who takes a long time to really trust someone due to bad experiences, and people who i really consider as friends are those who not only want to have fun and party with me, but those who doesn't mind my physical appearances and casual dressing and likes to spend "homely" time (like getting ourselves dirty with sports and baking cookies tgt etc) with me. all the best :)
