What happened to damage your trust? Can you write about it?

Once trust is broken, it takes forever, it seems, to build it up again. Lost: very quickly, in an instant! Restored: tons and tons of appropriate behavior to warrant trying to trust again.

I'm working on rebuilding trust issues now myself, so I relate. Wishing doesn't make it happen. Forgiveness doesn't happen overnight--even if you wish to forgive, if you have a lot of anger and hurt from betrayal.

Be kind to yourself!
