- My best friend lied about having a terminal illness
- My ex girlfriend was very controlling and punished me a lot (not in the fun kinky way)
- In all honesty, I didn't have a great childhood and have had family problems, even recently
Since the ex, whom I split up with in December, I have had trouble trusting. I suspect this is partly to do with a relapse in to depression as well... I have kept my friends, but been wary of bringing anybody new to my life...
I don't have low self-esteem, I enjoy being single and love my friends... but I find trust so difficult at the moment. I know it's illogical, as personally, I'd never hurt anybody, nor would my mates... but I'm concerned it may not exactly open doors for me in the future...
If people try to get close, I close up and I almost expect people to let me down... any tips on getting over myself?
