  • If it's a matter of friendship, if I intuit or have evidence that this person is a good bet, I'll take the risk.

    I'm emotionally resilient in relationships - I know I can handle feeling hurt emotions like enduring a cyclone and knowing it will pass, and I will come out the other side alive and unharmed. And wiser.

    And if it's a good friendship, one can talk about these things and resolve them.

    But in practical matters, I am very careful with the people I deal with. I check everything.

    The latter, since it is my way to do things.

    You are closed off, suspicious and never give people a chance Oscar? That seems very sad to me. Different strokes. Thank you for your reply and Happy Sunday! :)
