Hello everyone! I �m unsure about one thing and I would like your assistance, please. I �ve got the following phrase: �Oh, no! John must have stolen my money! I .......................... (not trust) that man again! Would you say: �I won �t trust that man again �, since it �s decision taken at the moment of speaking, or �I �m not going to trust that man again �, since it �s intention? I �m a little confused. Thanks a lot for your answers in advance. |

The first variant sounds better, but both ones are possible. You explained the difference yourself.

I definitely agree with korova-daisy. I will add that not only does the first sound better (won �t) and more natural, but it also sounds more like a blanket statement, especially if you add "ever", to get "I won �t ever trust that man again". Bruce |
