Understanding Trust Issues in Relationships: What to Do
The Situation
"He doesn't trust me but gives me no reason to trust him"
The Brutal Truth
His lack of trust in you and refusal to earn your trust shows he’s projecting his insecurities. He may want to control or manipulate the dynamic, protecting his own flaws while asking for your loyalty. This behavior is toxic and discredits your worth.
❌ What NOT to Do (Anxious Response)
An anxious person might over-apologize or constantly seek reassurance, thinking they must prove their worth. This is wrong because it eats away at their self-esteem and fosters dependency on their partner’s inconsistent validation.
