Trust and Social Naivette

How trusting are you?  If someone presented themselves as a good person would  you immediately take their word for it?  How easy to manipulate do you consider yourself?  I'm sure it's not just Autistic people who are taken advantage of.  But are Autistic people easier to take advantage of?  Do you present yourself as honest? And do you see other people as being the same as you?  Because often they are not.

  • I have a sixth sense for people that I don't like. I just have a feel for people, I have been trusting in situations others might not be so trusting but I think in that situation was the right thing to do because I am pretty sure they were ND and didn't explain that to me and I didn't understand at the time but I thought it was the right thing to do. I tend to be too trusting of things I read though. Oh. The earth is flat, lemme just believe that and then I read somewhere else its not and then I realise oh the earth is not flat.
