I prefer not to build extensive rapport or even relationships w/ people who ‘don’t trust anyone’. More often than not, the reason that they cannot trust others is because they do not trust themselves & fear that others are also like them. It’s toxic, traumatising & arduous.

Nobody has time to be trying to prove themselves to anyone or enduring a series of psychological tests & trials, only to be pulled into an isolated web of their world where it’s just you & them anyway because ‘nobody else can be trusted’. Please, bye.

It’s one of the most major red flags to me when I meet somebody & they have a generalised apprehensive attitude to people, specifically people of other cultures/denominations - quickest ways to show me I’m about to be in for a whole lot of projection & gaslighting.... oh buddy!

I cannot build anything sustainable with people who have trust issues with the world, because then our bond will be isolated. I’ll be isolated. And I like to share my love & life. Let me love the people you love, whilst you simultaneously love the people I love.

If you don’t love anyone or trust anyone else, then you will want the same for me.

And this is a fate I just cannot agree to.
