U
CAN have closeness & friendship without trust,
but
not without affection.

I had a good friend who died about 25 years ago.
I also had a
gold and
ruby ring that disappeared.
I dunno whether he stole it or not. He might be innocent.
If I had known that he 'd steal my
ring, I 'd certainly retain
and enjoy his friendship and advice; their value far exceeded
that of the
ring, but I 'd take better care of the
ring.
