I have real problems trusting other people. I think part of it comes from having irresponsible parents that I couldn't count on to come through for me. Another part is having high standards that nobody, myself included, could possible live up to. I'm gradually un-learning these patterns, seeing them for the childish stories that they are, and learning to put trust in people. I think this also has a lot to do with my issues with "faith." I think you could probably equate "trust" in people with "faith" in people, and I require a lot of evidence before I will grant faith, which I suppose is quite contradictory.
