The other night I started thinking about trust. Like at what moment do you know you can trust someone in a relationship, or do you always trust them and then something happens and that trust is broken.
So as I was thinking about that I started thinking about my best friend and how he showed the ultimate trust in me. One day he called asking for a favor-he in turn gave me his email address and password and asked me to log in to open an email and give him some information. And I did-and i immediately logged out. But most importantly, I didn't try to write the password down or memorize.
I got in, got what he needed and got out. Later, another friend remarked what trust or faith he had in me to call me and ask me to do that. And I shrugged it off because I thought that's the way all things should be.
But I was naive and I now know that all relationships do not have that level of trust. I started thinking about today and what would happen should I need that same best friend to retrieve and email for me-what would happen if he decided to check a few things out and I realized my email account was filled with emails from the past that I didn't want to bring into the future.
And so, I deleted. Everything. In my yahoo, to my facebook to IM convos I saved because I thought they were special.
Not that i'm trying to hide anything, but when you decide to move on, there's no reason to let people in your past remain present and potentially ruin your future.
