Paranoia. If people use it against you, then you benefit to see them for their true colors. You can then decide and chose where you stand in their battle, and also chose not to be a part of it.
Fear can mess with people's minds in so many ways. Seriously- face it.

Actually, having read a lot of our OP's posts, I don't think she is afraid of much of anything, LOL
Her point is a good one and not a bad idea - protect yourself by being very discerning about who you give access to your personal life and heart
But it hinges on trust, And that needs to be a 2 way street. Give and take. Also many do not want to be perceived as having weaknesses. But we all have them, and have made mistakes, Are not perfect and have our own secrets and views. Sharing those in tandem is part of a relationship.

True. But trust should be EARNED.
I have observed too many people these days just giving their trust away
I'm trusting by nature, but I'm also a good reader of people. Here's the thing though: A lot of times people do not follow their natural inclinations - that then negates being a "good reader." I can figure out if someone is a good person or not at heart, but whether they'll behave that way is up in the air - too many external factors can affect behavior, no matter what a person truly is like.
But meh. I was severely bullied as a kid. There's not a lot an adult could do to me that would gut me any worse.
Okay, but being careful is not the same as never opening up. Some people are so paranoid that they never can. Not everyone is out to get you.
