I've never really bothered much about how people treated me in the past, as I figured that if I never did anything to intentionally hurt someone, then they would also afford me the same courtesy. Sadly, being nice does not make the world go round. It actually allows people to discover your weakness and use it against you....in other words, it gives them the cruel opportunity to walk all over you. You might think that people would have the conscience to not wanna cause hurt, but people like that are actually a rare commodity these days.

So then I took it upon myself to only associate with people that meant something to me. Those who you can count on to always be there and tell you the right side up. I went along and did just that. In the beginning it seemed to work. I felt good and seemed to be rather positive.

The lesson that I learnt from this is that even the closest people to you are in one way or another just out to get you. No one is ever really nice to you just because they want to be. They are nice because they see something that they can get out of you, and when they succeed, they leave. It's just human nature. Really......people cannot be blamed for this. It's how we are built. So what separates the good people from the bad.......you might ask? Simple ! Good people will always be honest. They will tell you the truth even if they know it's gonna hurt. Bad people on the other hand will conceal the truth, mislead you with beautiful lies and convince you that you are being over cautious........and then when you let your guard down, they come at you and bite your head off ! Hah.....too late, 'cos you would have never seen that coming !

Anyway, my point is, the closer you get to a person, the more you should be aware. People who are truly open and honest are those you want in your life. You can never really trust someone......as TRUST is a huge word for most people, and those with small minds never can quite understand its meaning !

Truly, the only person you can trust is yourself. No one knows better than you ! When this feeling hits, then good things start to happen for you. If someone did want to trust you, they would without rhyme or reason. And if they didn't, they you will be exposed to a whole new realm of ridiculous excuses ! While it might be amusing to listen to.....it can sometimes hurt.

None the less, simply put, the reason people you care about hurt you the most is because you actually do care for them. Because if you didn't, it would never affect you. You know that saying.......life just has to go on......well, it does. So honestly, being hurt is normal. It makes you human ! What counts is how you pick yourself up and move on after being trampled on ! I absolutely believe that what doesn't kill you.....only makes you stronger !!!
