friends help: How to Build Trust & Healthy Relationships: Is There a Difference - Help.com

Major point: they can’t lie to you. It’s as simple as that.

To build trust I think a couple should just.. share intimate details with each other that they have never shared with anyone else. It’ll give them a sense of security that they can confine in the other person with anything they have to say or feel.

For friends to build trust, I think that it’s completely different. Maybe just the fact of hanging out with the friends and getting to know them over a period of time you start to build a sense of trust without even realizing it.

It’s intuition and experience of a lack of betrayal. That is what trust is to me.

non using motivations, clear motivations with no ulterior motives. Also if a person has control or contact with their issues pressures problems etc so they don’t have a loose cannon quality.

partner? as in significant other or business partner?

I know what you mean. Basically the only relationship I’ve had was an online relationship which turned into a long distance relationship and trust was the only thing we had to go on pretty much. I trusted her with all of my heart because of the fact that I believed in her and I believed that she loved me and wouldn’t do me any wrong purposly, and if something did happen she would tell me, or so would I. It’s not about telling the significant other absolutely everything that goes on because they don’t have to know anything, but more along the lines of being honest and open which stats to build trust. To me, even telling me things that potentially might hurt me built more trust for me in her than anything because she would be honest with me and not hide anything. Well, look where that ended up….

That’s exactly how I feel in my situation. Everyone continues to like.. berate my former girlfriend I guess, but for some reaosn I can’t find myself to do that. I can see the person who she really is and everything and I feel like just because she made this decision doesn’t make her this horrible person. That’s why also I guess I forgive her for everything that’s happend, but she can’t understand why I forgive her or something.
