How can I trust my unfaithful spouse not to cheat again?

Once your partner has cheated on you, we often wonder, "How can I ever trust again?" The truth is that you may never be able to trust in that naive, closed eyes, not seeing the signs, how could this happen to me, way ever again because you know this can happen. So, to trust again is to trust your ability to stay conscious, to stay present, and to stay in tune with what's going on with your life. To trust your partner is really about trusting yourself; to know the signs, to be aware. It doesn't mean being hyper-vigilant, it just means that you are present inside yourself, that you trust yourself, that you're not going to be blind-sided ever again and that you're going to remain conscious. If you also have a partner who's willing to work with you and be really honest, to be responsible for their choices, and to be open about what they're doing, it's going to make trust happen. The two of you committing to the relationship and saying yes once again in full consciousness as two grown-ups will help rebuild trust. Trust isn't gone forever; it just is going to feel different.
