I trust you means more than I love you

Yup, I really believe that. Trust is more important. When it comes to regrets and reflection, I'm really bad for that. I analyze everything. And most, if not all, of my relationships came down to either trust issues or negative association with the term "I love you."

My first serious relationship, I said "love ya" on our first date when she was leaving and she overreacted. The next one, I was afraid of "I love you" and the girl gave up on me because it had been 7 months and I hadn't said it.

The next three girls had trust issues with me. They didn't trust me, or I was a jealous boyfriend, etc. It sucked. When the last girl said she didn't trust me, I lost all sexual appeal for her. So I stopped putting out. She begged me. I said, "Okay, then stop wearing a bra when we have sex" and she took it as immaturity. And I left her.

Loving is a nice feeling, but trust opens far more doors. It allows adventure, and shows parts of the personality that maybe you didn't know you had. I have a very strong security blanket. Lots of people love me. If you don't trust me, what good is love? You're not ready to accept the next step to begin with.

I know some are ready to harp on me with "you have to earn trust", and that's valid. But I can't comprend how somebody can love without trusting.

I do agree.  Trust actually begets something.  Love is flattering, and a very high compliment, but in terms of practicality, it falls short of trust.

However, I have far more people trust me than love me, so...

i take both phrases with a grain of salt as they're just words but yeah,  trust is necessary for me to consider an emotional attachment to someone as love and i wouldn't bother with people who didn't trust me, it's too limiting.

I don't think that trust and love are one in the same, but I believe one is required for the other.

I can trust my best friend, and not be in love with them. See?

(I didn't read your post, sorry! But I'll say what I think anyway )

I don't believe that. A fuckload of people trust me.

I understand that deep trust is something that's valuable and not easy to gain, but I think love includes that. Trust is a component of love. Maybe not theoretically but.. in general I think it is. The only situation where trust is worth more than love is if by "love" you meant " "

I agreed. I think trust is effectively like a pre-requisite for love...most of the time. I'll use an example, when my sister was 8 or 9 I was sticking up for her at her school. In doing this, whether she'd said anything about me or not told me something, there was no way I would have turned around to look at her. I didn't trust her, but I loved her, and was fighting for her.
