I don't trust people in general and nothing is going to change that.
That mistrust, however, doesn't really manifest itself in a misanthropic fashion as you'd expect, though. It's more that I am hardly ever surprised when shit hits the fan because somebody does something unexpected of them. I am, most of the time, prepared for what might happen not because I do anything to prepare myself for it but especially but because I don't limit my expectations.
Deep down inside, I believe, everyone is going to lie at one point. You will be ditched. You will be cheated on. You will be played, robbed or tricked. The earlier you realize that, the less chance of something or someone screwing up with you in a big, big way.
For someone who is that paranoid about it, you'd be surprised, however, how much I value truth. Or maybe not. You could pull that argument either way, really.
On the opposite side of all this, there are a few contexts in which I value trust, more than anything else. Romantic relationships is one. Professional interactions is another.
Whatever. I am tired.
