Trust
Trust is one of the key factors of a successful and happy marriage. If it isn’t present, then you’re facing an uphill battle. It’s fair to say it’s the backbone of marriage. When you are sharing your life, your home, your dreams and your aspirations with somebody you should be able to have complete trust in them. Do you have complete trust in your spouse? If the answer is no, you need to figure out exactly why. Here’s some questions to ask yourself:-
Are they sometimes dishonest with you?
Have you been hurt or let down by others in the past?
Are you dishonest with them and fear reciprocation?
Do you spend a lot of time apart?
Do you make decisions together?
From asking yourselves these questions, you can probably deduce what the reasoning behind your lack of trust in your spouse is. If it’s because they are sometimes dishonest with you, this is something that should be addressed as soon as possible. Marriage is no place for dishonesty, it can contaminate any relationship.
The Magic of Making Up and Save The Marriage cover this area in great detail and can help you to rebuild the trust you have for each other starting right NOW.
Maybe you have been let down in the past by family members, friends or previous partners. You could be living with a ‘filter’ in that you expect to be let down by everyone. Perhaps it’s only natural to feel like that, but is it fair on your partner? You need to discover what is contributing to your distrust and set about tackling it.
To save a marriage, you will usually need to re-evaluate it and from there you will need to confront the issues that are putting it in jeopardy. First as an individual, and then together. Trust is so important, never underestimate just how important.
