Depends what you mean. If you mean in a relationship and you've been cheated on, then no. That will always be in the back of your mind.

Let me put it this way. Take a glass and break it.You may be able to glue the pieces together to make it look something like a glass.It will never be as strong as it originally was. Trust, once you lose it is very difficult to regain.I'm not saying it can't happen but a breach in trust permanently destroys some of the relationship.

Yes, it is hard, and it will take work by the other person. You, too, though, will have to be open-minded, and take a risk if you care enough to by trusting them. It's better to forgive and forget (well, maybe not completely forget...). It lets go of a lot of negative feelings, and you'd feel way better after. Also, take it slow. Don't tell the other person anything too personal right away. In the end, if the person screws you over again, just know that you were nice enough to give them a second chance, and they were a jerk to take you for granted (twice!).

The only way I have found to ever trust again is to go thru the steps of greiving your loss. the grief process for me had to be well outlined and I had to follow the outline strictly in order to achieve any results. I feel like today that I do trust but now my trust is more reasonable instead of blind faith in nothingness.
I wish I could tell you where to find the outline but mine came thru an inpatient alcoholism rehabilitation clinic so if you can avoid it I would suggest finding a better method.

It depends on what you did to lose the trust. If it was something big, like being unfaithful, the answer would be no. Even if the person forgave you, there would always be suspicion in the mind. But for smaller issues, most likely yes. It just might take some time.

Yes you do. You have to work through your fears first. Losing trust in someone or people is usually tied in with having fear of losing trust again. It's hard to not carry that on in to another relationship whether it is with a family member, friend, or lover. Bad things happen to good people, people hurt people, and people disappoint us. It's up to you whether or not you want to get past it. If this person is important to you then let them know that you will try to trust them again but it will be a slow journey.

In my case, no. He was looking at kiddie porn, promised REPEATEDLY to stop, and I continually caught him. Enough was enough. I can't trust him ever when it comes to us or our marriage, so I am moving out. Not only that but it will be hard for me to trust another guy for a long time. And that won't be fair to a new guy because the old guy screwed up.

there is always a grain of doubt hanging around in the back of your mind. even when you think you totally trust someone who has wronged you.you may forgive....but never forget. the not forgeting is what causes the trust issue. so maybe if you got amnesia.......... =)

If I found a guy that could hold a job, doesn't drink & is good to me & my daughter I think it would be foolish of me not to at least try. But it's been years so I guess I'm just not meant to be with someone
