Stop being so naive

To Myself I couldn’t have put it better! You echo exactly how I feel! I don’t think it’s because I’m trusting of people inherently (though I think it’s a big part of it) but because I WANT to believe that everyone in this world can be trusted. And because of that self denial, I ignore my gut feeling (which has been right every time!). So I don’t know if I’m naturally naive or I WANT to be naive or both! argh!

I have this girl at work and she keeps falling out with me whenever I do something good, so instead of being proud I try and build bridges with her! I always think that people are being nice and I always trust them! I do see bad in the world but for some reason i’m still jst so trusting! And when Im teaching if there is a complaint made I always think it is about me! Any ideas how 2 stop being like this?????

I don’t really know if naive is the right word.
I see plenty of the bad in the world.
I’m Just to trusting….
But I guess that would make me naive wouldn’t
Tho still I don’t TRUST easily.
But I still expect for that little good in people to BE there.
So…..yeah
How would one stop being naive?
Other than getting hurt…..and learn to build up a shell of untrust.
And I don’t want to make it my goal to be hurt
I’ve done enough of that already

i dunno…ppl used to describe me as naive…i dunno im or not

isit wrong being naive??i dunno too..:P

gone.

sigh

of my biggest mistake in life. Almost a year ago I was naive when I shouldn’t have been. This mistake cost me the girl I used to be. It killed me inside.

I thought that everything was my fault. If someone was mean to me, or did something bad, it was obvious in my mind that I had done something to deserve it. This is so sick! No self-esteem at all! I didn’t feel right to express any bad feelings, I would forgive people and keep on trusting them. That’s way too naive.

I want to be naive enough, and this is an art.

By now I should have learned some lessons:
1. DON’T expect to be understood by certain family members.
2. DON’T get too close or they will hurt you.
3. DON’T feel guilty for something you didn’t do and are not responsible for.

Three simple rules, and yet I can’t manage to stick to them!
