I have just been through a rather trying experience with a member of the
opposite sex, and I am concerned about the nature of trust.  Our
'relationship' (how I hate that word!) was, as far as I was concerned, based
on mutual trust, but I realise now that my own trust was misplaced, and I
suspect that I was being manipulated.  People of the net:  what constitutes
a basis for trust?  I was willing to trust someone because of words, but
what good is that?  How do you tell if someone can be trusted with your
affection/devotion/friendship?
