Occasionally you'll find a dealer or customer who just doesn't trust you. If pe is an open and honest person, pe will tell you to your face, and allow you the opportunity to defend yourself; otherwise you might hear about per distrust through a mutual friend. Either way, my strong suggestion is to NEVER allow yourself to become mad or offended because someone doesn't trust you, no matter what the reasons. If someone doesn't trust you right away, or asks you question after question in an attempt to get a feel for you, or interrogates your friends about you, or wants a complete tour of your house before getting down to business, these are all VERY good signs. It shows the dealer is thinking, and isn't willing to take unnecessary risks. It shows that pe is not an idiot; and the last thing you want is an idiot for a supplier.

But keep in mind, too, that undercovers and narcs often show a certain amount of distrust to make themselves more realistic.

And you must keep in mind that there are different aspects to trust. Just because you trust someone not to turn you into the cops, doesn't necessarily mean you can trust the person to keep per mouth shut, and doesn't necessarily mean pe won't try to rip you off. And just because you can trust someone to not purposefully do something to you, doesn't necessarily mean you can trust per not to do something stupid, like put your name and number in per stash jar, then drop it on the sidewalk.
