Why You Lack Trust In Your Relationship

Love can't exist without trust. If one person within the relationship constantly feels as though the other is sneaking around or hiding secrets, or perhaps has even been caught being unfaithful, this can damage the trust in a relationship.

Mutual trust can be a strong basis for a healthy relationship. When that trust is breached, not only does one partner feel betrayed, disappointed and cheated, but the other partner can often feel enormous guilt.

These negative emotions can lead to other problems within the relationship, including communication problems and insecurity. 

Building and earning another person's trust and respect takes time, especially after catching your partner out on something major, like an affair or a significant lie. Only you can know whether you're prepared to forgive a major breach in trust.

If you do decide to work on mending the relationship you should also be prepared not to throw the indiscretion back in the other person's face at every opportunity. When you've told your partner you're willing to forgive what's happened, but then immediately make them feel bad for it all over again at every opportunity, you're holding a grudge, which can break down any work you've done towards trying to fix your relationship.

A perfect example of love without trust in celebrity news is the case of Sean "Diddy" Combs and Casandra Ventura also known as Cassie.
Sean "Diddy" Combs and Cassie Ventura have been involved in a highly publicised legal and personal dispute. Cassie, whose full name is Casandra Ventura, filed a lawsuit in November 2023, accusing Diddy of physical and sexual abuse during their decade-long relationship. The lawsuit included allegations of beatings, drug-fuelled coercion, and sexual exploitation.

The day after the lawsuit was filed, both parties reached an undisclosed settlement. Cassie stated that she settled the matter to have some control over the terms and thanked her supporters, while Diddy expressed a desire to resolve the issue amicably and wished Cassie well.
In addition to the lawsuit, Cassie has been cooperating with federal investigators in a broader probe into allegations of sex trafficking against Diddy. Federal agents raided Diddy's homes in Los Angeles and Miami in March 2024 as part of this investigation. Despite the raids, no arrests have been made, and Diddy has denied all allegations.

A viral video posted on social media showed what seemed to be Sean "Diddy" Combs abusing Cassie while the victim was trying to run away with a suit case.

There's another perspective to the hotel video which has gone under the radar. It is alleged that Cassie might have helped herself to Sean "Diddy" Combs' Rolex and a hundred thousand dollars whilst "Diddy" was in the shower. Hence why Diddy rushed out of his hotel room without clothes on covered only by a towel.This still does not warrant the abuse inflicted on the victim Cassie. But surely paints a different picture as to his reaction.

In conclusion mending the rift


If the trust in your relationship has been destroyed, trying to cling to your partner or not let them out of your sight is not going to make things better. You'll end up smothering the other person and making them feel suffocated. Your own fears about them repeating the problem are creating even less trust, which can spiral into a vicious cycle.


Holding a grudge and reminding your partner about their behavior regularly is also a sign that you're not willing to forgive and move on. Your partner may begin to feel as though it's all too hard if you're not willing to work on more positive ways to get through a bad patch.


Communication and understanding are vital when you're trying to mend a breach in trust. Give your partner the benefit of the doubt. If he or she is truly sorry for the behavior and seems honestly regretful about it, then there's a chance that it was a mistake and won't be repeated.


However, there are some occasions where it may be possible to consider if you want to remain in the relationship at all. Only you can know if you're willing to forgive a breach of trust.

What Is Broke Shaming ?

Image
In 2021 I went to dinner with a mixed couple. We chose a Caribbean restaurant in Brixton, South East London. During one of the conversations I had to describe where we lived. In Gravesend. We described Gravesend as “white trash”. I noticed the expression on their face, it looked like they just swallowed turtle poop or something similar. I have had numerous occasions where I have described something I’ve done or experienced and people have had the turtle poop reaction. But why? I grew up with white Italian middle class foster parents. I went skiing in the winter and beach in the summer. We had a German shepherd as guard dog in a colonial 3 floor house with a basketball court. I’m saying this to make the point, that I’ve seen what middle class looks and feels like. The other side of the coin was that we’d go camping, do charity at the local Catholic Church where my foster parents were personally involved, we recited 50 Ave Maria’s every May for a week, and I remember we housed a family o...

How To Explore Your Inner Self

Image
The actual psychological personality of a person is referred to as the self of a person. Each one of us has a hidden self within us, but we are not aware of it. A human being thinks that it is his consciousness that lead his actions. Actually, our inner self guides our behavior in our day-to-day life. This self is constructed and undergoes transformation with the passage of time as we experience new things. Ego also forms a part of our inner self. It makes us fight for our own identity in the world. It stresses on an individual existence of a human being separated from others. This will make an individual proud and selfish. He will neglect certain facts, which will be an obstacle in his self-awareness and thereby degrading his self-development. Thus for the development of the inner-self, the foremost step is self-introspection. This means that an individual should look within himself and analyze his own personality. This way he will be able to make out his own strengths and weaknesses....

How To Boost Your Self-Esteem and Believe You Can

Image
The strongest single factor in prosperity consciousness is self-esteem: believing you can do it, believing you deserve it, believing you will get it. - Jerry Gillies Self-esteem refers to how you think and feel about yourself. These are thoughts and feelings a person may have, may it be positive, negative, or mixed --- about one's self. The more positive these thoughts and feelings are, the higher your self-esteem will be and conversely the more negative these thoughts and feelings are, the lower your self-esteem will become. Feeling good about yourself is important as it gives you a sense of control over your life. It can also help make a person feel satisfied in a relationship. With a positive self-identity, a person is able to set realistic expectations for oneself and pursue goals. Having a negative self-perception, on the other hand, results in a distorted view of one's self, which leads to further lack of self-confidence, poor performance, and depression. In recent times,...
