Hi Impala,

Trust is a very important thing in relationships with others as you know. If indeed this person is ill and not just using their illness as an excuse, then I would say go to them and talk it out. The worst that can happen is that you feel she will remain untrustworthy and you can make your decision from there if you want to keep that person in your life or not.

Maybe this individual needs you to explain exactly what it was that hurt you and how it made you feel. It could be a learning experience for the both of you.

So many times our trust is compromised by misunderstandings. That's why it's so important to keep the lines of communication open as much as possible. People have different perceptions of an experience and unless we discuss them openly, there can be lots of heartache and mistrust.

I wish you well Impala and hope you find what is best for you with this relationship. Go with your gut instinct on this after you have an open dialoge with this person, it will lead you in the right direction
