My partner broke trust. So why do they say that they don't trust me‪?‬ Why Does My Partner

    • Relationships

Having a trusting relationship means you and your partner never let each other down ever, right? WDMP Podcast listeners know the answer to that one…no way! So what does it mean when we talk about trust in a partnership? Today’s listener question leads us right down that path, unpacking the many different kinds of trust there can be, making explicit agreements and setting expectations, and what to do when your partner goes into defensive mode.
If you haven’t already, make sure to listen to the other episode that we mention in the show, Why Do I Feel So Bad When My Partner Gets Disappointed or Mad at Me?
Quotes:
"most of us, in most of our relationships, we're having ruptures daily. And if we're doing relationship well, we're catching some of those...and we're making repair."
"there's no breach of trust or betrayal without an actual agreement that we both said yes to."
"Projection is when I take a feeling that I know very intimately and put that on you."
