TRUST is a very important factor for all relationships. When trust is broken, it is the end of the relationship. Lack of trust leads to suspicion, suspicion generates anger, anger causes enmity and enmity may result in separation. Do you agree? If YES, how important is trust in your relationship? If NO, why does it not play a big part in your present relationship? I just want to know how important is it you my friend...
Thanks for spending some time in giving your opinion on my discussion here on mylot. God bless you all!

Trust is of course very important. If there is no trust then how could a relationship be built and strengthened. It is my trust in the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ that built my personal relationship with him. Through this trust, I am now a person, Saved by His Grace. It is also my trust in my spouse that led me to marry him because I completely trust that he really love me and could make a good lifetime partner for me. And now it is our trust for each other that makes our relationship stronger. Therefore indeed trust is an important factor.

Trust is a very important factor in any relationship, like you say. But I don't think I would break up a relationship instantly when the trust is broken. Sometimes you can work through it. It all depends on what has been done and how you found out. Just my two cents.
Have a nice day

That's where I disagree. For example, I love my husband very much, but if I found out he was cheating on me on a regular basis and I found out through, let's say, a friend, he would be out the door immediately. But with feeling the same love and he cheated once, and he would tell me himself, I would probably give him a second chance and I would try to work it out together.
Have a nice day

I agree on what you said.Sometimes,some outcome come out ,what the cause is is the important to us.But ,if you trust him or her ,you will believe him and treat him as usural.Or,you will have yourself suspicion.And the contradiction become more and more ,in the end you will separate,I think.So,we should trust the peple around us ,don't always doubt what they say.

definitely... without question, it is the utmost important element in a relationship... without trust, there is no point to carry on with the relationship as the couple will keep on doubting each other... i always put trust as a number one element in my marriage and i ask my hubby not to betray it... it takes a long time to build up trust but it only takes one second to destroy it... take care and have a nice day...

I agree with you in saying that trust is one
of the strongest factor that binds a relationship
together. With out it the relationship is weak.

Well for us trust is very important. Back in college I was surrounded by a lot of girls who are either my classmates or friends. My girlfriend would get jealous to some (especially the chinita ones) but not to all because she trusts me.She only gets jealous to show me how much she loves me. On my part I let her meet with her guy friends too and I have to admit I get jealous sometimes but since the trust is strong, I don't really mind even if she's surrounded by guys. Although I know I'm no match against Brad Pitt and Steve Nash whom she admires very much. LOL

Hello Jhordie
It is a meaningful topic.I think many people know the trust is the very important factor in human life.
Especially, if you are a businesman.you need trust more a lot to your customers.So the old saying is:The trust is the second life to a businessman.
But in fact, wherever, we need trust, person to person,country to country...This point is necessary.A person can't live any more if he is a distrustful guy.
So we should take care about the trust facor in our relationship.as long as we keep our words, there will be no suspicion between us.
good luck to you

I agree with you that it's a very important factor. But even if trust is broken, I don't think all is lost. Trust can be rebuilt. Through time, patience and communication. Any relationship can have trust issues. People make mistakes and they learn from them. It's what they do afterwards that really counts.

for me trust is very important factor in relationship.
When the trust is broken it is very hard to gain it once again.

my sentiments exactly. When you do not trust your partner, things can really become quite rocky. A lot of couples do not really recover after one of them does something stupid such as having an affair or hiding some dirty secrets from otther for a long time. It is never easy to regain the trust of the other person after you abuse it.

yes, you are right, trust is the most important in all relationships, like friendship is built on trust, and i think trust is above everything. without trust, there cannot be any real good relationship . just like a husband and a wife. there is trust. they would easily break up if they do not have trust in each other. i believe in trust.

Dear friend,
I hope trust has important role in making one's life success and moreover trust of each other is much of sharing and giving all secrets too can be motivated. Those inner feelings, those frustrations, those secrets all to can be shared and much of advice too can be got rather keeping into oneself and getting more confused. May trusting each other is one of the main positive side of a better relationship. A trustworthy person has always his value to he shows the trust to.

Trust is the most important factor for any relationship to continue. If there is no trust in a relationship there is no relationship at all. I try to be truthful and trustworthy to all my friends and I would expect the same from them. When a friend tells me that I should trust in him I would always take it for granted that he will always tell me the truth and not break my trust. And the same would go for me too.

trust is really an important factor in any of the relationship, especially in a husband -wife relationship which is also a delicate relationship.
without trust this relationship cannot exsisit at all, if u just get a little doubt also about ur partner its for sure u start getting angry on him n just start getting frustrated n leads to all problem between the two.
so its better always try to trust on one-another n never give a place for doubt in ur heart against ur partner, as doubting is the step towards spoiling the relationship.

Trust is extremely important to me.
When I am unable to trust someone, I can't share anything personal with them. The relationship tends to disappear at that point.
