<human>: Hello reddit, this is my first post. I have a problem which I thought you could help me with. Throughout my high school years, I thought that making friends was simple, you just had to be friendly with people, get to know them, hangout, and with time, gain mutual trust.
Recently, however (first year of university, 18 years) I realized that it doesn't work this way. Or at least it didn't work this way.
I began doubting the trust between me and all (or the vast majority) of my friends. Statistically speaking, chances are the problems from my end, since so many people can't be like this. What I mean by "like this" is hard for me to describe, but.. it's as if they have no conscience. For example, numerous times have I shared a secret with my best friend of 10 years, and he always seems to tell people, shrugging it off as no big deal or "no one cares about this story, no big deal.. don't worry". This happens all the time, yet they fail to see the problem.
Furthermore, I constantly had this feeling that if I stopped initiating contact with my friends, who I perceived to be close friends; hardly anyone would try to see what happened to me. So I tried not to contact them, but within a week, it was clear that they weren't going to contact me. So I tried to consciously forget about this problem, but it's always been there.
The question is: Am I just not a close friend to most of the people I considered close friends? Or is it that they all don't know the meaning of trust? Should I confront each friend individually, and talk to them about this problem? Or should I just move along and find some other friends. I'm lost…

Provide a brief overview of the text.
<bot>: either most of my friends are not as close as I thought they were, or that my friends don't know what trust is. How can I find out which case it is, and how can I fix this problem?
