I hated doing this, but I created categories or labels for people. I used to view all people equally, but then I trusted them all equally. It's easy, seemingly, for some to abuse trust. Now I "rank" people by the amount I feel I can trust them with. There's no formalized system for it, but I'm very aware of how much I can trust someone.
An experience like yours, Darkstar, would cause me to move this person down the list a lot while trying to retain friendship. I'd just be careful about what I entrusted to him, and be selective about what I took to heart. And it sounds like you've already done that, so I'm on board with you!
Not much of a "friendship" when you do that, though. Like I said, I hated it, but it was a needed survival skill.![Frown :( :(](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png)
