Remember that they’re not your ex and until they give you a reason not to trust them, they don’t deserve to be distrusted for the actions of another

Maybe try starting slow. Start with revealing or asking people for help with small things. Let them show you a positive response. Then gradually increasing the vulnerability over time. That way it’s like dipping your toes in the water and not so much all at once
