There is always a time when you need help, even though as human nature treats us, we sometimes dislike to admit it. We sometimes tend to fear what people would think of us if they knew you had a problem you can not handle... I've been there trust me. Right now all my friends I need help with something now, I don't care what people think of me.
This story goes way back, it's a problem of a huge deal over something that is a small deal. I have a friend, a friend that I respected, a friend I almost literally loved... But then something happened over other friends. I started to get manipulated into thinking something, thinking something that was honestly not that truthful, as an end result, I did something bad to the friend I had mentioned. As a result I got in deep trouble with that friend, and I remained angry at that person, not over the trouble however, but because I was still manipulated into thinking that she was a horrible person. Well, a while back, I had finally had my eyes opened by a close friend that I was manipulated and tried to return, I wrote an apology letter to the person, and they accepted my apology, but I can't help but feel like I wasn't fully forgiven. She doesn't trust me, and I feel like whenever I try to get close to her, she burns me up in the atmosphere, I don't think it's her fault though. She has got to be the most cautious person I know.
I talked with her and she said that she doesn't want to trust me because that almost every single person she has brought back into her trust had always turned around later and harmed her... I have no intention to do any harm, I just want things to return to normal between us when we were close friends. I've gone to a lot of people and they said all I can do is wait, but I've waited a while now and nothing seems to work out. All that happens is that I get harmed. I feel the chains of the past seem to latch onto me, and I get the feeling that they won't break free even though I am trying to undo my wrongs.
I guess this advice is a question, and that question is: How do you get a cautious person that was once your friend to start trusting you again? How do you prove to them that you mean no harm or ever want to do harm again?
Good Friends:
