Do you think it's possible to trust again once your trust has been broken? Can trust be regained 100% without ever feeling mistrust.

First,I think we should talk to each other to make sure if any misunderstands are between us.Communion contributes to understand. Second,I will try my best to regain it. Last but not the least,I will give each other a chance to start with a clean slate.

Yes it can. You have to decide to take the risk and jump in head first even though the water may only be knee deep.

I don't think it's possible. It might happen to trust the person back but there will be a limitations on it. It is hard when someone loses trust, it takes time and effort to gain it back and once you get it back, it will never be the same!

trust can be regain after it is lost but it is a matter of time and a willingness to humble yourself. Be accountable for your actions. send time with your partner. When you are being acused of someting you did'nt do. Do get upset listen tell your parter you understnd why they feel that way. tell that they hurt you hurt and you don't want to hurt any more. tell the truth even if it is uncomfortable

100%? i don't think so. maybe 99%, and that is earn over a long period of time. it is very hard to earn trust after it is broken. there will be a bit of mistrust. breaking trust shows that you can really break a trust and there will always be doubts that you will do it again. the best thing to do is to come out. be honest. admit mistakes. the longer you keep a sin secret, the longer you may not be forgiven for it. show that you have become honest and will not break ones trust again. but again, it takes a lot of time.

I don't think that trust could be regain 100% once it is broken. Well, maybe it takes a long time even to trust a person again. I do believe in giving second chance to let the person prove himself that he is worth of another trust but it is normal to feel doubt when you experienced being fooled by that person. For me, it is possible to regain trust but not 100% be regained.
