sexkillz: You should trust your partner, not your best friend. . . No matter what a best friend does or says to your partner, if he or she is not swayed, nothing happens. The fault always comes from the partner. The final choice rests on them.

So, do you trust your partner? If no, why on earth are you still with someone you cannot bring yourself to trust? Don't you think something is wrong with you, if you fall in this category?

I just thought about emotional vulnerability, the woman could be susceptible and a lot could happen. My point I would rather not risk it.

I remembered a story I read on NL about a woman who lowered her defenses while her husband was away thinking she will never fall, she did have extra marital se.x once and she did confess to her husband when he returned. I thought about that case and I do think the woman did love his man she was just vulnerable when the stuff happened.

My whole point, as much as trust does exist, one shouldn't play risk. Of course I will trust my partner ahead of my friend.

Number 1. I dont ve a gf so 90% of what you just typed ~~~~~.

2. with all due respect(mod) your comments re kinda rude,dont u think so?

3. we re all entitled to our own opinion, so if someone doesnt agree with urz, its normal,no offence.
and finally I ve read countless times where couples (both married,and normal bf/gf) because of this issue do some terrible sh!t so? #justmyopinion.
1. If you don't have a girlfriend, why are you advising on what you know nada about?

2. No I don't think so. If you interpret my comment as rude, its your own pill to swallow any how you deem fit.

3. If we are all entitled to our opinions and you don't like your opinions countered and decimated, why did you try to pick holes in the opinions of another in the first place?

And finally, I can only defend the actions of a legally married individual. BF/GF arguments hold no water in actuality. We only make excuses and get away with it.

No one trusts you 100% as well. Good for you. But then, some of us do trust, and have people who trust us with their lives. . . If that isn't 100%, I don't know what else is.

That's just me.

I do understand your point, if we start this debate we will just toss to and fro without reaching a conclusion. Putting your complete trust on human is setting yourself up for failure from the start, there should be provision for errors (though some errors are disastrous and not forgivable) so that when this errors do happen one won't be completely hurt in the end.

Even in marriages, 100% peak if achievable will be towards the couples old age, then the trust would have been earned after series of life experience.

You don't have to necessarily agree with me, but the best you can do is trust yourself because you are responsible for yourself alone. Everyone has both potential to behave like a swine or saint within himself; though which one is actualized depends on decisions not necessarily conditions and people change with time. A saint today may be a slut tomorrow and that is not in your jurisdiction to determine for that person.

Every relationship should be built on trust, but complete trust is simply setting one for failure because humans will always remain humans.

Now Killz will quote me. I'm out of here.

I reiterate: You don't trust people, people don't trust you. 1:1.

There exist people like me with the ability of trusting others with our lives and vice versa. That you cannot bring yourself to trust people doesn't and would never mean that people who trust others fully, are non-existent.

If you don't understand that, I'm truly sorry. . . It's beyond your scope.

*quoting you before he does* grin

The op never asked HOW MUCH you trust, but IF you CAN trust. Saying no is like saying you have 0% trust in your friend to respect you and your boundaries and 0% in your partner to be faithful to you.

It's something like this... If she tells you your best friend gave her a lift, you suspect he used her thigh as his arm rest. If she ever asks about him no matter how casually, you assume they are having an affair behind your back.

That is no relationship. It's a waste of time and energy.

Re: Can You Trust Your Best Friend With Your Partner? by Princesszoe: 3:56am On Jun 30, 2013
@op to me the question should be, can i trust my partner with my best friend. I don't have issues not trusting or trusting my best friend that much. But i will do if i don't trust my partner. Besides if i cannot trust you with a mere pretty and well built CLOSE friend what am i doing with you then? It shows that i already know that you are not trust worthy enough. Some how real love connects with trust and jealousy although the jealousy should not be out of selfishness or in a controling manner. When these two are not one of the components of your love, then something is wrong somewhere. Choosing to be with a partner whom i know that i can not trust with my cute girl friend means that i know that his weak point is women, that his self control is not intact, that he has zero strong moral principle and above all, he doesn't love me that much not to hurt me and that he lacks the FEAR OF GOD.

I walk with a cool and trustworthy circle of friends who can die for someone else. Plus why be with a girl I can't trust? It is silly and a waste of time
you didn't even say Friend but circle of Friends,you think you trusted all of them.That is the mistake with some people,they think everybody around them are friends until some people bring out their true character.It may be alright to have a friend like that you can vouch for but [b]Circle of friends?[/b]you are deceiving yourself.

When you have a circle if 3 people including you, you know what they can do in an out bro. Why do I need a million friends I don't trust when I can have 2 who have my back everyday?
