Keep in mind that you can’t control the feelings of trust; you can only control the actions. So if you want to trust your partner again, then begin with small actions: trust him in tiny little ways and see if he proves worthy.

The fact is sometimes your partner will respond the way you want, and sometimes she won’t. Sometimes you’ll both see eye-to-eye on an issue, and sometimes you won’t. Sometimes you’ll reconcile your differences with a win-win outcome, and sometimes you won’t. When things go the way you want, you’ll feel good. And when they don’t, you’ll feel pretty lousy. Are you willing to make room for all of this? If not, you’re going to struggle with reality. And that’s a fight that reality always wins!
