Trust is EARNED and not IMPOSED just like respect. It's really hard to lose your trust especially if it's from somebody that you thought will never break it. To redeem it the other person must show that he/she is sincere in winning it back and he/she must give some effort. There's always a second chance to everything so don't lose hope but see to it also that he/she has prove something and is worthy to be given another chance.

chances have been given a million times already and i have been telling him to please make an effort... yeah i can see that he is going the extra mile for the relationship but after 1 to 2 months his old behavior will come back... and i think it is my prejudice too i judge him before he can explain i already out in my mind that he will ust lie and that i have difficulty believing his explanations...=(

If that is the case then you already know where the problem lies..It's up to you to decide and whatever you decided or choose just be prepared for the outcome. :)

Look buddy. In this confused world almost everything is lie... Before trust him again, ask yourself: Have I ever lied? If you lie, do not be so demanding. But now i know your answer. Yes, you lied. One or more, but you lied... Everything in this world is lied. For one or else reason. There is no matter. If this person like/love/respect you, there is no sense to not forgive him. Why? Because one day you will want to be simplified, but... You know. Same fate here. One relationship is more than one trust, more than one dream and more than one feeling!

I feel the same way as you do. I don't know whether it's my prejudice or not, but for me, good impression, once lost, can never be easily recovered. We need to give a lot to earn others' favorable impression and trust. But a small mistake can destroy all their good opinions. It's not easy to regain my trust once someone did stupid things to ruin that trust. For some reasons, I may continue to keep in touch with him/her, but I'll never believe that person again. It's not because I'm a selfish person, but because I don't want to be hurt again by the same person.

we are the same it is nice to know that someone understand really how i feel... irealy want to bring back the trust bt i just cant coz i was badly hurt and i cant open up to him again because im afraid to be hurt again much more than before.... maybe in time pain will heal but i think broken trust is like a broken glass when you try forcing it to be fixed it just cuts your hand adds ip to the pain in of loosing the trusy...

IF you love him and you believe that he deserves a second chance, why not? Men lied for so many reasons. Besides, we are all humans and because of that we have an innate weaknesses, thus, we often doesn't know how to deal with everything properly. Even our minds and hearts are telling us that honesty is the best policy (:)) still, we are so weak that we get scared. Whatever your man's reasons for lying, give him a chance first.:) Here's a link that might help you reconsider your man's plea. http://authspot.com/thoughts/hurt-me-with-the-truth-and-not-with-the-lies/

yes that way you close all the matters not answered. trust can be given to anyone and its not the only thing that can be given back. you trust to be trusted also. its two way in my opinion. lets give each other chance.

i really hope trust can be given as easy as giving things to people giving money but its not it also involves feelings and sincerity so i cant be sincere in givig trust because i have been hurt before all i have to do is develop back the trust that he has ruined .....=)thankz for the rep

If he is always breaking or ruining your confidence or trust in this person I think its time for you to move on. I mean your always giving it to him and you didn't receive anything to return, I believe in every relationship is a two way process, both partners should be able to give and take what should be, like TRUST in itself should be give at the same time should also be given back. At least this person will show his respect to you to return this trust in him otherwise if its not working that good enough, somewhere or something is already wrong. Maybe its telling you to that its time for you to move on.

Trust is not something you csn just expect to have given to you. Trust must be earned. It is a bond thank builds relationships and makes them last. When these bonds of trust are broken, they are hard to gain back again. Giving and accepting trust is a two way street. The commitment needs to be on both sides or it will not succeed in lasting.

For me, as I experienced its really hard to bring back the trust again. After all of being honest with him you will just found that he's lying every time your together (or even if your not together). I tried to put the relationship back to normal but I have to accept that it was already broken. And I decided to have are separate ways, to take time for ourselves. If time would come and the pain is gone and we could still be together, then why not if we still love each other. But if the feeling is really gone, then you are destined not to be with him.
