Want Marriage Advice? Lack of Trust takes you One Step Further Away

Lack of trust can put a real dampener on any relationship. For a relationship to build and flourish you must trust and be able to trust your partner.

I have a friend who is married to a girl he absolutely adores. They got married quite quickly without getting to know each other that well but as the saying goes it was love at first site. Since being married my friend can’t concentrate at work, can’t sleep, paces the office incessantly and has developed ulcers. They still love each other to distraction but they are quite different individuals and struggle to understand the other’s point of view. When they are together they can’t take their eyes off each other but when they are apart, because they haven’t built that trust and struggle to communicate, the relationship starts breaking down but they haven't sought marriage advice .

One of the main reasons for the lack of trust  is jealousy. A jealous person will find it tremendously difficult to trust their partner. Their imagination will just run wild when their partner isn’t with them, they will invent all sorts of fictitious relationships and will see the enemy around every corner. Previous partners can cause a real problem which is one of the trust issues with my friend’s relationship.

Another reason for the lack of trust is a partner’s inability to do what they say they are going to do. Often people will say they will be somewhere or will do something but never follow through. This leaves their partner in a difficult position, no knowing or understanding the reason for the lack of commitment. Of course, if you are in the enviable position of being able to step back and view the situation from afar you can always see both points of view. That’s not so easy when it’s your relationship that is under threat.

In my friends instance he tends to push his partner into saying yes to something he knows she will struggle to do and she doesn’t want to disappoint so tries to keep the peace by saying yes. They just need to follow some well test marriage advice, he needs to learn to stop applying the pressure and understand when other commitments are just going to get in the way and she just needs to learn to be just plain honest from the start and say ‘no I can’t do that then but what about doing it next Friday’.
