Is 100% trust in a relationship & marriage actually realistic? Do you think we lie to ourselves that we 100% trust our spouse when we can't see them?

or do we have to learn to live with a little bit of doubt about what's going on behind our back when your man or woman isn't around?

I do not see it as lying. I mean trust is something you give when it is earned. So, it is something you choose to believe in, at time regardless of it if it is earned and it something that is maintained until there is a reason not to trust.

I can't tell you how many times I have said to myself, I am deciding to trust this person, because honestly, I have no reason to not trust them, unless I give my trust to them, and they fail.

So, it's not a lie I am telling myself... it is not about me 100% trusting or not trusting... its about not having any logical reason not to give it to them.

My wife and I trust each other completely. And it's not like we are together 24/7. We're around each other a lot, do things together, and have lots of time to chat. But we also have some of our own separate interests and activities and know what each other are up to because we share. We're on the same wavelength.

We don't spy on each other's electronic devices. Neither of us has any interest. It would be boring.

We've been married now for almost 26 years. We've had a lot of fun together and also been through a lot. She knows that I am 100% dedicated to her and would never cheat or do anything to hurt her. I'm comfortable and happy and want to spend the rest of my life with her. She feels the same way about me and has proven over and over again that I can depend on her no matter what. We're in it together.

So yes, it's possible to trust someone completely. But she's the only one I trust completely.

Yes I can’t trust him with anything except being a good dad and paying the bills 🤷🏻‍♀️ it is what it is and we do get on really well but I’d be more surprised if he had no secrets than finding anything new out.

If you can't then you didn't marry the right person. And God doesn't make mistakes when He sets you up with someone.

you should have 100% trust in your partner otherwise you're gonna be married her

I think it’s realistic, but is built through consistency and transparency.

[CuriousMufuxka]

I believe that's impossible. I'd love to believe it was possible :)

I think there’s always the chance that if your spouse wants to cheat they will. But that’s the thing. If they want to they will. There’s nothing you can do to prevent it.

[KrakenAttackin]

Absolutely it's a lie.

Nothing and nobody is 100% trustworthy.
