Last night's dream session awoke me to a realization: many of the relationships in my life are trustless. By this I mean that I often feel that I am being set up to take a fall. I often feel my wife is after my money. My workplace has always felt political. I do believe somewhat in mutual cooperation, but always for some kind of gain.
This is very problematic. It impedes my ability to trust anyone. That means I don't yend to let people get very close to me, emotionally, and people sense that and stay away, as it indicates to them that I cannot be trusted. Maybe this is true.
I can see how this all may originate in my childhood trauma. I see how my self-esteem also was causal.
What I don't yet know is how to fix it, or even what to do with this knowledge. I've done a lot of work on myself, and clearly have a lot more to do.
