Can you date/marry someone you don’t trust?

Question

FatNeville · Accepted Answer

Of course I can, and I have done so before. Dating, that is. I've never been married. But it's fortunate that I can do so, because I don't trust anyone at all. People are human, and humans make mistakes. Humans will let you down. Humans will behave unpredictably from time to time. But what matters to me is that I have an expectation that is well-founded and consistent with the evidence I have perceived that the person in question will take reasonable steps to do what I would believe to be the right thing in important situations. This can be evaluated, e. g., by examining the known history of the person and analyzing the decisions he or she has made in the past. If the person has behaved in an honorable manner in the past, it is reasonable to anticipate that the trend may continue. But as I said, I never trust someone. People who have never done anything wrong in the past can slip up in the most disastrous way. But if I love her enough, I will likely have learned enough about her that I can put myself in her shoes, at least to some extent, and try to think about why she did what she did. And sometimes mistakes happen that don't necessarily need to be treated with unnecessary harshness. At the same time, actions that demonstrate a lack of respect, love, kindness, or compassion can be indicative that there is something wrong with the relationship and that it may be better to adjust things or break off the relationship entirely.

Not a good idea, trust is part of a relationship

menina · Accepted Answer

I personally wouldn't. Trust is important in any relationship, even if it's not a romantic relationship.

If there's no trust, you'll be always suspicious and that is unhealthy. Not to mention that it causes a lot of stress.

Usersarepoo · Accepted Answer

Nope I will not date or married a person that I couldn't not trust and will find someone else instead.

Bricealan · Answer

Interesting inquiry, "prosperity". My experiences with women who were either married or "attached" were the most exciting sexual relationships I have ever had, simply because of the uncertainty involved.

Would I date or marry 'her" ... Of course, and I did, but was not prepared emotionally for the crushing time when she left me for another man.

To answer your question more directly, the lure of the woman who may have doubtful, commitment thoughts and a wondering eye, for other men, is all part of the dating experience for me. I just took the chance for the excitement of being with a woman like that, and let the "chips fall where they may"

"If she leaves me for another, so be it. It was wonderfully exciting while it lasted, and I would take the risk and do it again" Just be prepared if she leaves you.

Unlike you are a ruthless individual who is after their money or assets, I don't see the point. Isn't Love supposed to me all about you finding all those elements of a person to be positive including trusting them? I would say a definite NO!

northerngal · Answer

Never. Trust is essential to a strong marriage. Dating... well thats why we date. To find out if you can trust that person.

Kinkyhubby · Answer

No. If I don't trust them when I was dating v them I would never marry them. Obviously if yoir having trust issue, you should look more into it
