I bring it because people have used me many times for their own ends wherever I go and I wanted to clarify how to find people you trust especially if you have autism like me.

I agree! Most people do some of the things on there sometimes. Sometimes someone does something that makes us think they're a bad person. Sometimes we make a promise and don't follow through. Sometimes we participate in a competition and try to win. And, sometimes we don't want to be alone. That's normal human behavior. However, if most of these are present most of the time, then it's a sign of a poor situation.
