I thought I’ll be properly understood, recognized as trustworthy, treated as well. Only to figure out it’s not the case.

I get stories told but they were turned around, like I had told them wrong in the first place.

May I trust people to easily?

Do I treat them wrong, offend them upfront, so that they have no other choice to react like the way I experiencing them, afterwards?

I don’t know and obviously I don’t get it.

Or is it so subtle as Contractor to act towards your customer in this way, telling you what you want to hear and turning it afterwards around to their own benefit?

I know what I write here is the typical “blame game”.

First I should be more precise, bring it on paper and don’t trust anyone upfront. So the majority will conclude with me - don’t be that naive or the stupid one - that nobody can benefit from you.

But how nice would it be when you ask for help, telling the truth about how much you can invest time, material, eg., because money wouldn’t play a role anymore and then you start doing it together.

Without being in competition or have the need to benefiting from one another.

And then I wake up again … feeling sad, for all involved parties, because nobody wins anymore, when mistrust has settled in.

I’ve to make a postive entry too, as man (excuse me, women can and should do the same, I guess) … Watched the film “Bedazzled” and have to admit …. after I did research on Wikipedia, followed by searching more actual pictures (no not on naked or bikini stuff, but yes a lot of bikini ones came up) … that Mrs. Hurley looks still stunning with her 54 yrs. I don’t know her character traits but she’s beautiful from my point of view. Thank you Mrs. Hurley that you take care on yourself, it is nice for me to look at beauty.
