Part 2

Trust Issues

I have always had trust issues with people, especially my own mom. I almost never trust her in anything for many reasons that are too long to write; worst of trusts with her. I can usually tell if she lies to me about something, but it’s mostly things about where we are going and what we’re going to do.

It started when I was young and when I never really suspected a thing about what she does. She would say we are going to get something for me; nope, it’s just me being taken to get a haircut. When she told me that we were going to this usual party thing and she said there would be my cousins to play with; nope, I get the exact opposite of what I was told.

One of the worst lies was when she took me to the mall and she said we would eat soon; nope, I get an extra 4 hours there and we eat a whole lot later but I lost my appetite because of a massive headache from not eating sooner. Another terrible part was when my mom said we would go home after this place we went to; nope, I get a 30 minute drive to somewhere and a 3 hour wait for no reason.

I can now hate her for those times where she lied to me about many things and I fell for most of them. I never really tried to do anything until I was 10 years old and I never went anywhere with her again; unless I know it’s not a lie and we are going where she said we would, which is mostly never. I never feel the need to have to trust her again because all she has done was… mostly lie I guess and help in very close second. She is almost completely not trustable and I can tell that she knows about my ways of never trusting her and she lets it go by and doesn’t bother me because of this.

I have trust issues with other people and it’s not as bad as my mom or, or… I guess no one else has that bad of trust issues with me. “Friends” are not really trust worthy people except for at least 5 or 6 people I know will be trustworthy enough to… trust.
