so how do you get to a place in your life where
If your parents weren't there for you, physically, emotionally, and/or mentally, it is hard to trust...even God...
well, my dad was never around and my mom physically kicked me out of the house when i was 10 years old. yes, i'm totally serious. i was homeless at the tender age of ten! so... does this qualify me?

I think that does qualify that you definitely have trust and abandonment issues. I am no psycologist, but have needed one myself for such issues. I pray you can get help. My Dr. Jake told me that you can know something in your mind, but until you KNOW it in your heart and soul...process it...it will not go away!!
Love to you and your precious girl. I really hope and pray you can get the help you need to deal with some terrible cir****tances in your life. I do not have the knowledge to help, all I can do is what I have done...share with you and pray! Good luck!

i hate this thread. i really do. it sounds so sad and desperate and i promise you, i'm not usually like this in real life. (i'm very good at hiding and disguising my hurts.)
but, of all the things that i've shared in this thread, there isn't a shred of untruth among it all. and that's extremely pathetic.

Let's see...your avatar says "under construction" and your board name is working on a new me but making progress so be patient...so be patient with yourself. It is not pathetic. You are reaching out for help. You say that you are alone, but you are always welcome here to post and ask for advice, prayers, good thoughts, whatever you need. We are not perfect around here by any means. It takes alot of courage to open yourself up. In my book that makes you a brave young lady and I say young, because at 31 you still are young and have lots of time.
Keep coming here, you don't have to hide and disguise your heart. We understand.

You are the only one who pays the price by carrying the negative emotions with you .Forgiveness is not a feeling that will wash over you, it's a choice your choice to free yourself of the anger,hatred & bitterness. It's not an easy choice, but a necessary one. Every one has been betrayed in their lives ,some just more drastic than others. I had lost trust in alot of people . But you just have to pick up yourself and go on . Just because you forgive them doesn't mean you have to associate with them. It just frees your heart and you will be happier. If you can't confront them write a letter to them , confront them with the issues. Then either mail it or throw it away, your choice . You got it out vocally . It's sounds crazy but it does help !! I wish you all the best !! Praying for you that God will move you in the right direction. ![](http://images.obesityhelp.com/_shared/images/smiley/msn/ohkiss.gif)

i just feel so betrayed and so... taken advantage of! idk... i thought that if you loved someone you wouldn't cheat on them, you wouldn't make them feel like crap on a daily basis and you wouldn't STEAL from them! it's not so much about forgiveness right now as it is about trust. how on earth can i ever even begin to trust someone when everyone i've ever allowed into my heart has hurt me so badly?
I think this is the question that you want the answers to" How will I ever trust my instincts again ?" When you love someone really love someone they will not cheat on you or steal from you, if they did they are the selfish one not you !! There was no LOVE in their heart !! Well maybe love of themselves .I think that you are more mad at yourself for allowing them to hurt you ! As Gwen said forgive yourself first then work on the other issues.
