Help

We both have insecurities and trust issues due to past relationships... So, there's the back and forth accusations, yelling, name calling, etc. We are both extremely jealous and have no communication skills. We love each other but sometimes Love isn't enough to make someone understand that you aren't going to hurt them. How can we help each other overcome these issues?

I took my son's Ipad away because I'm at my wit's end with him.

He is so addicted and doesn’t want to do anything else. Can anyone tell me whether I did the right thing or am I being too harsh?

According to Psychology Today, we as humans have steadily been losing trust in one another for years, which has had particularly huge implications on the state of today’s marriages.

Marriages, in particular, can become incredibly susceptible to rifts caused by a lack of trust, Marriage Counselors and other psychology Experts cite trust as the most important part of a marriage. However, broken trust can be mended, too!

The importance of trust in a marriage.

What is it about trust that can make a marriage so strong? It’s because of trust:

Offers opportunities for healthy and productive communication.

Emphasizes a belief that each partner is doing the best that they can, encouraging good faith in one another.

It provides more occasions to be emotionally vulnerable and intimate.

Builds a foundation of safety and security that contributes heartily to a healthy marriage.

What can lead to broken trust?

Despite trust’s power as the strongest link holding a marriage together, it can be incredibly fragile. Some circumstances which may lead to broken trust (and eventually a broken marriage) include:

Instances of lying or infidelity.

When one partner hides something from another.

A judgmental attitude, particularly during difficult or emotional discussions.

Disinterest in listening to one another.

When these events occur repeatedly and a lack of trust begins to fester in a marriage, consequences such as fear, paranoia, anger, and painful pangs of betrayal can begin to consume both parties. This, in turn, will hinder communication and could make it more difficult to mend a marriage.

Learning how to regain trust.

One of the best ways to mend a lack of trust in your marriage is to consult an Online Marriage Counselor with your spouse. Couples across the world have emphasized the importance of having a professional to help them navigate difficult conversations and provide advice about how to move forward in their day-to-day lives.
