And why?

*anyone can answer
Myself. My family. The most. I have known these people the longest.



I would trust to a lesser extent my group of friends.



...i don't know all friends equally as well...I don't know i would trust all my friends equally it doesn't mean they are not good people..it just means i don't know well them well enough or long enough.

I have a feeling I will get a lot of people saying they only trust their family. Which is fine, so you trust your family because they know you the longest? That resonates security to you? I want some clear answers, if I am being too intrusive please let me know.

Time is a good indicator. I agree. Now that I think of it, I do have a friend of mine that I trust. She is a cancer. I trust her, not to the extent I trust my family, but we have been friends for years. I will try to write out why I trust her in the next comment.

I trust ppl who like me cause that tells me they got good taste.
So sincerity?
I was joking, but if you accept me that means you're usually an honest person yourself. Real recognize real.

But i trust my family. And some of my coworkers. Some friends.

Why. Consistency. Time.

With time, I assumer there's more to it, since there are other coworkers that you probably don't trust, right?

I trust my family as well. Friends, I can name 2-3 off the top of my head. Coworkers, none.

I trust only me.

Pisces sun/Taurus Ascendant
Understood, basis for trust in yourself?

You know you won't let yourself down?

You know what to expect?

All of the above. They only person actions I can control is mine. The person who has my best interest at heart is me. I trust only me.

With that are you always looking out for your own interest only, or are you able to look out for others interest as well?

I'm a nurturer. (Honestly I am.) I usually put the interests of the whole above the part. In other words, I won't put my interest first if it will negatively impact others. I try to find the middle path. Often when given the choice, I will let others have what they want, over what I want. Pisces martyr trait maybe. I just don't sweat the small stuff as long as my basic needs are met.

I see, thank you for clarifying that for me. But what if choosing someone else's best interest negatively impacts both you and the other person? You will avoid that altogether?

I trust only my partner - even more than I trust myself. Some may think that is foolish and arguably it is.

I also have trust issues. It took me a long time to really trust him. People say they trust others but I think it is easier said than done. I realised after truly giving him my heart and my trust, I had never genuinely trusted anyone before that (barring parents when I was a child).

Likewise, I know I have his trust. I look back and think about the leap of faith he made in me and I'm shocked by it.

Mind talking about the bolded part?

I want to have that sort of trust with a partner, so I am happy to hear that it does exist!

One of the people I trust the most is another taurus. I think the only taurus man I know closely.

I trust him because he and I made an agreement at the beginning of our friendship to always be upfront, not to hold back. To speak with absolute freedom. If one of us disagrees, we're free to say that too.

We don't coddle each other, but we deeply respect and care for one another. There's no being politically correct, no sugarcoating for fear of hurting the other one's feelings. Whatever sweetness comes naturally and it's not a cover up.

I trust him because any piece of advice he's given me has always worked out for the best.
nice! how long have you two been friends?

I don't have Taurus friends, wish I did.

My sister - the pisces one and only her. She will always have my back - proven loyalty and I don't mean tells me what I want to hear but is honest with me, in private but will stand in the wrong with me in public, if need be.

I think we've had many lives together, we have the exact same rising, down to 1 degree our vertex is identical, interesting synchronicities.

Reason. I'm a Taurus.

I've been hurt and badly betrayed by a family member so forget family. I know from experience, that doesn't always work. Friends can come and go in life. I don't have a husband. Consequently the only person I can trust is myself. And sometimes I can't even do that, but I do rely on myself which is what Taureans do. (Especially those with Fortune in Tau. 1st house.)

Lol, not even a full year. But it feels like I've known him for years. He really is like a brother to me.

I think same sign friendships work when your dominant elements aren't the same. He's more fiery than I am (aries moon and venus, sag mars). We get each other without being too much alike.

able to be honest and help each other grow, seems like a great friendship based on balance 🙂

Dad, Mom and my brothers ONLY
family first, why do you trust them?

id like to know the reasons why people trust the people they say the trust 😄
I have always had a good, supportive family. We all get along very well. I maybe wouldn't trust them the way I do if I didn't have good parents with a decent head on their shoulders. They cared and raised us right with proper values and morals. They are always there for me and supportive of my decisions.

That warmed me right up, you have a wonderful family and I am very grateful good values and morals are still being passed on 🙂

right now i only trust one and its a friend

why?

because i can say and do anything i want without being judge by her i tell her everything

my family judge me without knowing the real reason behind it they dont even ask why im like that that sometimes i question if they do care
your friend understands you! and it would be nice if your family did as well, but being understood is a rare phenomenon, which i am happy to know you share with your friend! keep them!!

Taurus Rising and Taurus in Venus (I also have a lot of air and water in my chart)

I have levels of trust.

Basic level: Everyone starts off here unless I get a shady feeling about them on meeting. I assume when I meet you that you're a decent, imperfect human doing the best for yourself, that you have no cause to harm me, and that most of what you do in relation to me is about you, not me. If you show me I can trust you, you'll move up. If not, you'll move down.

Hands-off level: I'm pleasant to you and assume no ill will, but you've said or done things that make me put you in the hands-off "watch this one" category.

No trust level: You did something to show me you can't be trusted. You'd have to do some major work to move out of this category. It might not be possible. I probably don't talk to you, or if I do, I'm thinking you suck and not saying much.

Friend level: I trust you to be kind and supportive of me. When you crack a joke at my expense, I take it in stride because I know you don't mean anything by it. I'd do stuff for ya.

Close-friend level: I'd confide in you.
Hey!

I want to say thank you for taking the time to write this out, there does seem to be levels, youre right, and you explained it thoroughly! I appreciate that.

Your thoughts are parallel to mine, have to say. And I like how they are organized too.

Confiding, yea I guess that's the risk one takes huh? Trust has to be maintained is something I am learning.

Well said! and well proven by her! I have read that we are mirrors to each other, and I am sure your sister thinks that same about you! 🙂

Life has taught you some valuable lessons, which you seem to be using wisely. You say you don't trust yourself at times, is it because of decision making? Or something else? I know Taurus can be indecisive when it comes to making important life changing decisions. I know because I am a Taurus as well.
