It depends on the person. My husband wouldn't be my husband if I didn't trust him completely. There are other people in my life I trust with varying degrees.
My husband trusts someone until and unless they give him solid reason not to. And even then they really have to hurt him for him not to want to trust them again. I am from a more unstable past and therefore I have to get the right kind of "vibe" from someone before I trust them--and even then I watch and listen to them closely before I really let loose.
I think it's much more difficult for a person who has been burned repeatedly to put their trust in others--but then that's a rather obvious point, isn't it?

Good question, one of the better ones I've seen in this category.
I used to trust people until they proved untrustworthy. Now I follow my wise father's lead and don't trust people until they prove their trustworthiness. But the extent that I trust people varies SO much and differently in many situations. And even then sometimes just plain old evil people come into my life and surprise me negatively. But in these cases, there's really no way to guard against them.
I would also not put people in postitions where they might do something untrustworthy. For example: Don't elect someone as treasurer to your group who is poor. Elect a more wealthy person, or at least someone who doesn't badly need money.

Sometimes trust is a bad excuse because you can misuse it. Sometimes you have to let that person carry out whatever that you think need trusting on. While you need to trust a person, you need to let the person learn that being trusted is important. So you have to see the kind of situation. Example if you have 2 million dollars, definitely you keep this money yourself.

Well it is okay to trust people, but only to a certain extent. But when I was growing up, I was taught to trust God fully and trust your family a little bit, and I was also taught that it's never good to have someone know everything there is to know about you!

The answer is relative, it depends on who you are standing next to when the question is asked. It truly depends on the person, there are some people I would trust with my soul. Then, there are some people because of their behaviors that I wouldn't trust around the block with their own lives.

Trust is a tricky thing. Trust is something you are naturally born with. An infant has complete trust in his or her safety. Trust is not something you learn, but learn to lose. We learn not to give it unconditionally and not to trust. We learn that it has to be earned, built or rebuilt. Sometimes it can be and sometimes it can't. The level of trust you give each person is different (total stranger, family member, teacher, co-worker, classmate, etc.)

To the point of no return. But it really depends on how you well know the person and the circumstances. If it's a matter of life and you have no one but that person, and the person is willing to help, might as well trust the one that's there than endanger your life furthur.

I know that I trust others 65% of the time... I trust my self 75% of the time...and I trust God 100%..percent of the time. We are a very susceptible beings. so its hard to put your faith in a "Person",,,You dont trust them ...doesnt mean you dont love them okay....you do but when it comes certain things...it is just....you know what I mean.

The concept is too vague.
I don't trust someone with my money if they have a history of theft. I don't trust anyone with my safety if they have a history of violence. I don't trust anyone with my personal information if I find that they gossip. I don't trust anyone to follow through on their word, if they have a history of avoiding doing things that they have said they would do.
My trust is based on *your* actions.
