I feel like you need a hug.
You can check me for weapons first.
*hands up...assuming the frisk position*
See? No weapons.
((Hugs))

I wish this were unfounded. It's not always about deception or malice. Sometimes people just try and fail to connect. Either way, life is unbelievably fucking lonely.

Seems to me they were never your friend. Just a thought.

Yeah, but you have a great AV and profile pic. So there's always that.

This is very relatable and rings true to me. Trust nobody.

not my experience generally...but then I rarely involve myself too deeply with many people...not because i dont trust them but because i dont have the attention span to sustain relationships often...i generally find that when i trust people, they repay it by being trustworthy...if they don't, I just move on and don't give them another thought...meh, just my experience probably...
i do know the answer to your carrot question, though...

I find most of this confusing. We have a lot of friends. Some are good friends and close friends. Others just people we meet mostly by accident repeatedly at events. I suppose they could sometimes be good friends if we lived closer and got to know them better.
We'd trust those good friends with no danger of being cheated or lied too.
Of course we don't have many truely good friends left. At our age the old neighbors, old friends, and school mates went and died and left us lonely.
My husband is not big on saying I love you. He only tells me I love you at bedtime or when I force him by saying I love you to him.
But I've noticed in the last few years he even says I love you to our grown kids and our friends. Yes even the male friends. The guys don't hug or kiss. It's a different I love you but they all know what it means.
Carrots have carrotene or somthing and grow in the ground. That's probably why they are oranger. But why don't they call a tangerine a little orange? Why is a grapefruit a grapefruit when grapes are small and grow on vines?

I think we often label people "friend" when we should call them an "acquaintance". Everyone we know isn't our friend.

As I sit and think about it, we only have a small amount of real trusting, loving friends. They'd probably hate me if they really knew the real me.
So true. None of us need many friends. Just good friends. I've never counted neighbors as freinds. I suppose they were just good neighbors. Even most of hubby's co workers weren't really friends but some were until they died. I guess that makes them dead friends.

Yep. I got burned by one. I don't treat people differently because of it or, more accurately, I don't treat anyone differently on the surface due to it. But the degree that I will extend myself has been restricted. If I choose to help someone, I never expect anything in return. If I do get something as compensation, then I am grateful for it happening.

I agree with this. Too many have taken my friendship lightly and put little worth on it. Save the hurt and trust no one, your heart will thank you for that.

I have never had a friend turn on me. Not once in 69 years!

While still young all of them except me wanted to trade wives for sex. It took over 50 years before I gave in. I've done a lot but it wasn't overnight.
We have several old school friends from way back and a few of my husband's work friends. For us most are dieing off so our friend list is getting smaller.
My husband has only hated two people. His brother's wife and one of his supervisors.
Sometimes the sister in law is almost human and the old boss decided he treated his men wrong. So in a way neither of us hates anyone.
Life is too short to hate or worry. Sure friends have drifted apart. Many because they or us moved. We still have great friends in Florida where we lived for many years.
One of us is on the phone or email with someone a lot. We don't do Facebook or anything else.
We go out to eat with friends and buy our own. But my hubby owes our best friend and his new girlfriend lunch. Sometimes one will pay for all of us. Old men are like that.
This is sad. We still have a few friends from grade school. In fact I have sex with one of our oldest friends now. His wife had dementia and he was without sex for ten years. I was finally having sex with a few men so my hubby and I figured why not our best friend. Him and his wife stood up at our wedding and we were at theirs. We are like family.I agree with this. Too many have taken my friendship lightly and put little worth on it. Save the hurt and trust no one, your heart will thank you for that.

Yes. Next month we'll be married 59 years. Today our daughter, the youngest child, is 47. We have two adult boys and a 28 year old we adopted.
