Does Harry Potter have trust issues or does he just not care by the end?

Lied to, betrayed, and used, it would be justified if Harry Potter had trust issues. But does he or is he just the kind of character who is tired of what his life has become?

Would you blame Harry Potter if he had trust issues? A boy thrust into this magical world and instantly burdened with the knowledge that a dark lord tried to kill him, it makes sense that Harry wouldn’t trust everyone in his life. Especially since his aunt and uncle had known about it.

So, as an adult, does Harry trust as easily or does he still struggle to cope with the fact that so many lied to him while growing up? Again, not anything against Harry. He had to deal with an insane amount of baggage coming into Hogwarts and no one really talked to him about it.

Even those he thought he could trust turned out to turn against him, making it as though he was just their pawn to use and train. Now that he’s free of all that, an adult with a job and a family, do those issues linger?

Again, he still is betrayed as an adult (this time, it is his son) and we never really see him deal with his past in any way. Harry Potter likes to hide his experiences and then lash out and does that just continue or does he talk to someone about all of these things? He deserves happiness but it isn’t an easy thing for him.
