Judgement of Character

My ability to judge someones’ character has fluctuated throughout the years. I use to think that everyone was kind-hearted, was honest, and genuine.

Then I ran across some individuals who broke my trust, didn’t have my best interest at heart, and had alterior motives for their association with me.

Then I didn’t trust anyone and believed that if people were being nice to me, they wanted something.

Now in present time I’m a little of column A and a little of column B. I don’t trust too easily, but I’m not completely closed-minded either. I guess it’s situational..

but you know what they say, keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

Survival of the fittest, bet that.
