I would only be angry with myself if I trusted somebody I already suspected couldn't be trusted, which would make me a damn fool for doing it anyway. If I put my trust in a person I had absolutely no reason to think would betray me, and that person did, then there is no fault on me, and my anger would be against the person who not only betrayed me, but deceived me too.

When someone has betrayed my trust, I first react....and become mad..not a good idea. One must never react, they must respond and find a way in which you are not becoming the very thing you are mad about.
I can not say that I have ever been mad or angry at myself for trusting someone, for it is my nature to trust. I have felt as if I wasted time and that makes me sad.
Everyone who meets me and starts out with me is on the same ground at the same level and until that person has done something to alter that, they remain so.
However, I do give people time to redeem and I do find myself forgiving and actually forgetting if that is what they and I want. The last part is the hardest. But .......when someone betrays me, they then must start not at the level position,,,,but somewhat below and it does take a while to come back to the beginning. That is what I mean by forgetting...it takes a longer time and is the hardest.

When you live many years, you are bound to be hurt by friends and family that you trusted and yet were betrayed; this is human nature. I am weary trusting the person again, not angry with myself for trusting, but couscous. I love people, but have developed a sense of reading people when I first meet them. The "gut" feeling is always a measure for me, and I have perfected it through the years.

I'm mostly angry at myself for ever trusting them because I already had a motto fromt he very beginning to never trust, and if I did trust someone, that would be stupid and breaking my own principles, and the betraying just proves more that trust is a stupid thing, unless it's God u trust. He'll never let u down, he has a plan in everything

I would be angry with myself if I trusted them and they betrayed my trust but I trusted them anyway. I have never been in that situation so I can't say for sure.

I do get angry at those who betray my trust, but realize their agendas may have been different from mine. I am not so much angry with myself, as disappointed that I could not see enough to avoid a situation where betrayal might happen.

Neither, I would feel sorry for the person who betrays the trust of his friends because he will eventually loose all true and good friends and if I get betrayed, well I would genuinely feel sad...but still would not like to lose a good friend if I can help it.

I was angry with the person who betrayed my trust but then I realized that being angry with them was wrong. People do what their nature tells them. Being mad at them would be the same as being mad at a dog for barking.

Definitely i will be mad at the person who betrayed my trust. The fact that i have given my trust to him must be earned with a trust too. You came to me with a whole open heart and in return i do then you will just betray it. What a big shame on you! However, the trust i have given you will not be ground for me to be rage on myself. I could not allow that to happen because i gave you that trust because i mean it. It came to my innermost mind and spirit for you to enjoy it and not to betray it. Trust begets trust.
Good question my good friend.

I would only be angry with myself if I had knowledge that they were untrustworthy to begin with but if I didn't know a person was not worth trusting then I would be angry with them.
