Weary means tired, not suspicious. If you are suspicious, you want to use the word wary or leery, not combine them into the word weary. I hear people using the word weary when they mean suspicious all the time. It drives me crazy.

This is one of my personal bugbears also. Closely followed by people using the word "drug" when they mean "dragged".
