Is it possible to trust your partner again after they've cheated?
Despite common wisdom, someone who has cheated once will not necessarily cheat again. If you can accept this premise, then the next logical questions – especially if your partner has had an affair – are: “How can I know whether they are cheating again?” and “How can I ever trust my partner again?”
Whenever I work with couples after there has been infidelity, feelings of betrayal and mistrust are always central to the treatment. In their relationship, there has usually been, and continues to be, a failure of the partners to really “get” what’s going on in each other or to truly connect. And now the trust has been broken. The partner who didn’t stray not only must get past the hurt and betrayal, but they must learn when it is relatively safe to trust their partner again.
