They never fully regain my trust as in the back of my mind I'll be wondering if what they are telling me is the truth or just another one of their lies.

I don't think I have ever truly trusted again. I have been able to stay friends, but with at least a small guard up. I also have trouble trusting people after I've seen them lie to others. I am not naive enough to think I'm somehow better or above the same treatment.

it depends on the extent of the lie. from your question, it sounds kind of like a serious lie. At the end of the day, you just have to ask yourself whether you're willing to forgive and forget. You can move on with that person in your life or move on without that person. Sometimes when someone tells one little lie, you see them in a different light and it makes it even harder to trust them ever again but just ask yourself if putting yourself through that risk of being lied to again is worth it or not.

Everyone lies. It's just to what degree (Not telling you that you look a little overweight in that dress OR sleeping with your significant other) and how often. Some people lie about some things that, in my opinion, makes them untrustworthy in my eyes from that point on -- no matter what. It really depends on the situation. You have to gauge it for yourself and determine if you are willing to risk being deceived again by this person or if they are genuinely sorry and worthy of your forgiveness.

A very long time to get over the hurt first, once Im over the hurt only then can I start building the trust up again. Though I'll never forget the hurt they caused me from their lie.

Its been my experience that it takes at least a year. And not only time, but effort on the part of the person who lied to show they are not interested in doing so again.

depending on how you feel about the person then time will differ if you are in love with the person it may take longer to restore trust but if the person is a freind who is not of a close relationship it is up to you to decipher when it is the right time
to forgive.
but i believe if the person is truely sorry for there actions and promise not to do it again then water under the bridge.

That's hard! I had a friend/like my sister (known her all my life) and she ripped me off and lied about it and It's still hard for me to trust her. I try but theirs always that little voice in the back of my head going Is she lying or telling the truth this time????

depends on the lie and the situation that forced them to lie...
sometimes people have good intention when they lie. like trying not to hurt the person they are lieing to. if someone is being dishonest and deceitful...they have to gain trust back which can take a long time

My sister lied to me for 8 years to supposedly protect my feelings, but she finally told me the truth after those 8 years. I feel that she should not have told me the truth at all after those 8 years, because when she told me the truth then, she wasn't protecting my feelings anymore. I feel that she should have been direct with me, and told me the truth during those 8 years. The way that she handled it, I feel that I can't trust her on her word anymore.
