Broken Trust

Trust is the ability to give yourself,
Wholeheartedly to another believing and hoping,
That they in return will do the same but they never do.
Yet knowing the truth about them you,
Have lost all hope.
You start to doubt all the words and emotions,
You have felt within your heart.
They have broke the trust you,
Believed in and it dissolves day by day,
As the blood drips from your heart and,
You lose all hope in what was the relationship.
You start to notice the lies and,
Deceptions within them.
Knowing there is no way to survive,
This knowledge of broken Trust.
The relationship starts to weaken,
And you lose the faith and hope,
That was built upon trust.
Forgiveness will never repair the trust,
That they have broken.
Leaving is the only possible response.

Hello Okegiegirlsrock, when a couple is married for a short time, a tripis planned. The husband wants to visit a family friend in Cubs. There he cheats on his wife. The trust is broken between them. The trip is wasted. Now tey must make the best of the trip. Hugs.

So he's going to actually pretend everything is ok even in his mind As he cheated on his wife. The husband needs to tell his wife that he cheated. Forget the trip it's not really important. Trust is gone but can still be honest and deal with your adultery. If you try and hids it it will eat you up
