Should I Trust My Husband Again?

By Richard Breban

  Trust is the foundation that all happy relationships are based on, trust is the foundation on which all other aspects of a healthy marriage stem from. Once damaged, lack of trust will rapidly tear apart your marriage. It may seem like an impossible thing to do right now, but learning to trust your husband again is something you'll need to do.

"Should I trust my husband again?" A query that every wife asks when trying to repair their marriage after an affair. Trust is something that is earned, so it's crucial to realize that you may never regain that trust unless your husband is prepared to help you in every way they can. Your husband must be prepared to assume full liability for his infidelity, and empathize the deep emotional distress he has caused you. He has to accept that you remain in pain and accept that he has a responsibility for helping you overcome the hurt he has done.

The only way to rebuild trust after an affair is if you both commit to repairing your marriage. An agreement must be reached where both of you pledge to do everything possible to get over the affair. The seeds of trust will only start to grow when your husband has apologized for his actions, and you sense that he really appreciates the pain and heartbreak he has brought about. Atempting to get the details about the affair, or atempting to force an earlyapology will only leave you feeling frustrated, and cause your husband to become defensive. Discussing will come later on, and more openly, as trust starts to grow. When you have both pledged commitment to your marriage, allow your husband to express his request for forgiveness in his own way, it will mean so much more, and you may be more receptive to accepting.

If you are both commited to repairing your relationship, your husband will apologise in his own way, when he does, this will likely mean a great deal more to you, and you are going to be more willing to give a positive response. You should not try and make yourself to receive the apology, this will happen in time as the bond between you and your husband develops. You may well not be willing to accept his request for forgiveness at first, but over time, if he is committed to rebuilding the trust in your marriage, you might start to slowly open your heart to the chance that there can be a future for your marriage.
