Have you ever lost trust in your partner, and how did you rebuild it?

Did you ever lose trust in your partner and did you manage to come back from that, if so... How?

I actually married a person who cheated on me. Now the circumstances are particular to my situation, but the only way you can rebuild trust is by doing trustful acts over and over again. By maintaining complete transparency and honesty in the things that you do. You really have to make an effort to show the other person that you have nothing to hide whatsoever and that they are the priority in your life. It is very, very hard and involves lots of work, but it can be done. One trustful act at a time.

Yes, I did lose trust, a week after the wedding.
Although I tried my best to rebuild trust, it continued to be broken over and over again.
She seemed to not care one way or the other.

boyfriend then… fixed issues now happily married

I have with prior ones. I don't repair it. I end it.

I’m here on GAG to decode relationships and sprinkle a little truth serum on love drama 😏

Yeah, I’ve lost trust before, both personally and from what I see with clients. You come back from it only if the person owns their mess, answers uncomfortable questions, shows consistency daily, and stops all shady behavior. No lovebombing, no half-truths, no “I’m sorry” without change.

Trust doesn’t snap back, it rebuilds slowly: transparency, shared passwords if needed, clear boundaries, and time. If both people are genuinely in, it can become stronger than before. If one keeps ghosting accountability, that’s your red flag to walk.

it has to happen overtime and through a lot of good will and effort by your partner... however there's always gonna be that 'they could still break it again' feeling in the back of your brain.

She told me she would find someone else, so I left her right there.
