Trust is such a fragile thing in any relationship. Even a small break in the foundation of the bridge of trust can make it tumble to the ground, causing distance between a couple.

Trust can be broken in many ways such as an affair, lying (even about very small matters), secrets and neglect. Broken trust can be healed, but it takes time and effort from both the person who broke the trust in the first place, and the person who feels betrayed.

6 Tips To Rebuilding The Bridge Of Trust

1. Stop The Behavior - If you continue doing what it is that broke the trust in the first place, there is no hope of rebuilding trust.

2. Communicate - You have to let your feelings out and get to the root of the problem. There was a reason the trust was broken. Be honest about it and make the necessary changes.

3. Follow Through With Promises - If you tell your spouse you are going to do something, do it. If you tell your spouse you are going to stop doing something, then stop doing it. Say what you'll do and do what you say you'll do.

4. Forgive - Forgiveness is probably the hardest part for the one who feels betrayed by a broken trust. To some, forgiveness means to excuse what the person has done. To really forgive means that you acknowledge that your partner has faults and makes mistakes. By doing so, you allow them to learn what it is you expect and need from them.

5. Don't Keep Secrets From Your Spouse - Keeping secrets from each other can cause bitterness, resentment and can break trust.

6. Be Patient With Each Other - Just as your relationship didn't happen overnight, neither will rebuilding it. Taking the time to communicate and learn from each other is very important.

When the Bridge Of Trust has fallen, it can be rebuilt with time, effort, patience and love.
