Top 7 Ways to Combat Trust Issues in Your Relationship

3. Be consistent

Trust can often be broken when communication is lacking in the relationship.  When a partner is inconsistent and always breaking promises, it’s only natural for the other partner to question their truthfulness.  Don’t say you will be home at 6 o’clock and end up running through the door at 9:00.  With no phone call or warning text, 3 hours is a large window to leave open for your man to extrapolate and convince himself of the worst.  It’s also important to explore why arguments happen and what you can do to change the situation next time.  After a fight it’s easy to storm off and leave the hurt to settle without complete closure.  Be mindful of what caused the fight, what your partner’s points were, and how you can both change for the better.
