Is There Anybody That You KNOW That You Can Implicitly Trust?

Can one trust someone 100%, when that someone doesn't trust them 100%? Does it have to go both ways? Just spreading a little manure for our friend Minimus.

I'm not to be left alone with myself, I talk myself into doing bad things. I got in trouble for putting the little stickers that are on banana's on the bottom of my cats paw, just to watch him shake his legs, sooo funny

Implicitly no.

Theodore Jaracz. Good guy.
Likes to mix it up on the weekends, have a few beers and shoot a little pool. You just don't know him like I do. I think he gets a bad rap around here.
Ok, serious now.
I trust my JW family members virtually 100%. I know they would never steal from me or lie to me....unless....I sprouted some "posta horns" and then all bets are off.
I know that if an Advance Medical Directive were in my possession they would ensure that I died for Brooklyn.
My oldest brother, long-time DFed, holds my entire JW future in his hands. If he wanted to "out" me as no longer a supporter of JWism, my whole JW fantasy-world would come crashing down. So, yeah, I'd say I trust him a lot.
Love him lots too.

Sure....Some people are 100% solid and you can depend on them. You KNOW that if THEY say that they'll be there for you, they will be there---whether or not you might return the favor. Trusting another doesn't necessarily suggest that it has to be mutual. Hope your manure spreading pays off.

I would love to say my husband but we just haven't been married that long and I don't know yet. Trust takes years to develop. I believe I'll trust him one day 100%.
I can trust my best friend though. I know I could tell him anything and he would never tell a soul.

No, there is not. I don't know if you can implicitly trust another human. By this I mean you should not tell everything to everybody. In fact, some things should not be told to anybody at all. Your right hand should not know what the left is doing.
Even if you love people they do stupid things and may inadvertently cause you harm or distress. For example: let's say you were a person who kept large sums of money around the house. If you told this to somebody and they innocently repeated it to the wrong person you might become the victim of burglary. Now, the person who repeated this didn't intend for this to happen but because they opened their mouth it did.
Too much trusting and openness is so cult-like. After being in the JW religion I learned to keep my trap shut.

I trust my wife, or my son.
