It feels safe.

It's not just knowing that someone can back you up, it's also knowing that you can disagree with someone and they with you and things are still okay. It's knowing that someone is there for you no matter what.

I trust my Mom on a certain level, like if my whole world ended - she'd be there, but not so much for the daily aches and pains.

I am learning to trust my partner more completely– feeling like I can state my a need or a want, a fear, or just an opinion, knowing that she might disagree and trust it be okay. But there are still some moments we struggle.

most of all, I trust myself to know if I'm hurt by someone I can survive that.

I found that trust needs practice. Almost like a muscle.
