Question, "Is trust more important than love?" Personally, I am unaware of your full situation but I firmly believe you cannot have pure love without any form of trust. If you can only trust memories, then there is nothing left for the present situation UNLESS you are both willing to build a completely new format of trust working past situations. A friend of mine, his parents went through something very difficult. His dad cheated on his mom and had another child through a one-night-stand. Things were very difficult after that but they managed to work through it together and now they have been married for 28 years. I admire their marriage, and some say that she's an idiot for giving him another chance. If you believe someone can change, then they are WORTH the investment. If this situation is anything like theirs, I do not believe in just throwing in the towel and giving up. But, unless your significant other is not willing to do anything then you need to take control and remember your worth. No one should have to be in a relationship founded on emptiness. Is trust more important than love? They go hand-in-hand. I hope that whatever situation you are in gets better, please do not take my words lightly because this can be a very hard thing to deal with. Thank you for the question, if anyone needs any advice or just has any questions please feel free to send more!
