Did you know that one of the biggest powers of friendship is trust? Trust is usually a virtue that disappears easily and quickly.
It doesn’t matter where the trust is, it just can be achieved for years and can be lost within seconds.
According to psychologists, many couples decide to break up because there’s no trust in their relationship.
Scroll down to see some behaviours that make people trust you.
What Kind Of Behaviours Make Others Trust You?
If you find yourself mimicking a person’s body language when you have a conversation, this is a good sign that you’re already well on your way to gaining that person’s trust. Studies show that subtly mirroring another person’s body language can help increase that person’s feeling of trust, without the other person being aware that they are being copied. This is especially good for negotiations and resolving interpersonal disputes. However, make sure to do this subtly. If you copy every single move a person makes, it may seem a bit strange! Simply allow your body to follow their lead naturally, and you’ll be amazed by how much more open and trusting they become.
Being able to ride out the embarrassment with grace, and being able to accept it, is shown to be an acceptable trait when determining if someone is trustworthy. A study done showed a man reacting to a perfect test score first with embarrassment, then pride, made people who saw him react with embarrassment more likely to trust him. Embarrassment is said to show that someone is more likely to be sociable, which inevitably leads to others wanting to associate themselves with that person. Everyone gets a little embarrassed, and being unafraid to show it can make others more likely to follow your lead, making them more relaxed around you and thus, more trusting.
People are more likely to trust the people that their friends are friends with. This is a phenomenon called “triadic closure”, which means that two people who have a third person in common are much more likely to become close. In a study done with social media, people were much more likely to accept friend requests from people on Facebook if they had mutual friends in common. Much more likely, in fact! 80% of people accepted a friend request if they saw that they had 11 or more friends in common.
While being trustworthy is hugely about showing that trait through actions and words, it can also be affected by these subtle behaviors. Science has proven that there are several behaviors and habits that can help us gain the trust of the people around us, which makes for a longer lasting and happier relationship. These are simple, daily things that can be done to help express our inner trustworthiness to the people around us.
