Lack of trust is one of the top four reasons that relationships break down.
Trust is the cornerstone of any healthy relationship, providing a sense of safety and mutual respect that allows both partners to grow and thrive together. When trust is compromised, it can shake the very foundation of the relationship, leading to feelings of betrayal, insecurity, and disconnection. Recognising whether trust has been broken can be challenging, as it often involves subtle shifts in behaviour and communication. To help you assess the state of trust in your relationship, consider the following checklist to help you gain clarity on whether trust issues are present in your relationship. This checklist will allow you to identify areas that may need attention.
