Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- I feel the jealousy or the hurt and then immediately pile on a second layer of "I shouldn’t feel this, a mature person wouldn’t"
- Something’s damaged my trust in them but I can’t bring myself to just say so, so instead I quietly pull back, vent to other people, and let it fester
- I keep everything at work behind a polished, guarded front
- With new people I try to fast-forward to being close
- I won’t hand anyone real responsibility until they’ve completely proven themselves first
Practices that may help

- The Trust Triangle After A Setback
Charles Feltman’s Trust Triangle (from The Thin Book of Trust) identifies four distinct assessments that together constitute trust: sincerity (I mean what I say), reliability (I do what I say), competence (I have the ability to do what I say), and care (I have your interests at heart). Trust breaks down when any one of these assessments fails — and repairing trust requires identifying which assessment was damaged.
