Trust in relationships

[coastal-boy]

trust is a natural by-product of healthy relationships. I think very few people enter long-term relationships fully trusting their partner...it just happens with time and the continual growing together. My experience...it is more fun being in a relationship than not.

I have an issue with trust as well ..
due to past experinces.
I just don't trust anyone anymore . i believe trust is to be earned not givin.
then there will be no pain.

In the beginning of a relationship when you don´t know the other person very well yet, it is hard to fully trust them.
Of course you should pick someone you think are trustworthy, but actual trust takes time, I think.

You shouldn´t have to give up the feeling that you can take care of yourself, to be in a relationship, in my opinion.
I like to know that I can take care of myself and him and the kids too if necessary. With time I have learned to trust that he can do the same.
