   • To entrust: To place something valuable (such as an object, a task, or a person) into someone else's care, often with a sense of hope, confidence, or emotional attachment.
   • To confide: To share one's private thoughts, feelings, or hopes with someone, trusting them with that personal information.

Advanced Usage
