It’s not easy to forget when someone breaks your trust, especially if you fear it might be broken again, but holding onto doubt is a surefire way to suffer. The thing about being defensive is that everything becomes a battle, and no one ever wins.
The only way we know if we’re able to trust someone, is by first giving them trust.
Start asking yourself, is this relationship worth the risk?
...is it worth forgiving?
...is it worth letting go?
And if it's worth it, what would it look like to start trusting, like right now?
