As far as trusting people, I am one of those that prescribes to trust being something that is earned. I do not bestow trust on others blindly, or without seeing if I can trust them. Unfortunately, most people are not trustworthy. And trusting people too quickly, or without seeing if they are trustworthy, is a recipe for getting burned.
I think I should see trust as something that is earned as well. In hindsight I have given my H trust despite his misbehavior in the past and this has left me burned. Like a fool I just neglected my gut feeling. I know better now not to do the same mistake.

Damn this is a disconcerting fact. Yes, I agree, I can count only few people in life I can really trust. Even less now H is untrustworthy.
