I find it difficult to trust people. I really don't

I have people around me.

I know how to make myself relevant. To blend just enough. but i just don't trust anybody. No one is honest until a certain time and i notice this. It is a kind of value bar thing where you have to prove yourself. All social circles have it but most of them are pathetic and don't have much value, and you have to tolerate to learn. It is just a come with a package thing.

Sorry if i offend anyone although I am not sorry either. Just that yea sure i can prove myself to you, but i cut people off fast if you are not cool and you don't really try to connect with me and you don't give me something substantial to learn in terms of who you are as a person. It's very easy for me to see this now.

Thought provoking but actually stating the truth about myself. I've always been like this subconsciously. I want to understand people and deep dive them when possible. But either they don't deep dive me because they don't know how to or because they don't care. 98 % of people I meet want to keep conversation superficial or talk about their seemingly perfect lives. And then I might be giving them value, but they never give value to me. If they can't reciprocate, they're not worth my time. It's a harsh road, but since I'm used it since childhood, it doesn't really bother me

Yea true. but i realize we are more narcissistic than we think we are. Mainly because my mum was that. :) So must be careful the other side of the spectrum. Yes i know how the world works but people are content with what they have/where they are/just not too fussy and just want less trouble/etc. So there's always that need to establish a relationship where you drop to everyone's level just enough that people can relate.
