What do I do if I've been with my girl a year or more and she still doesn't trust me?

Well, hombre, my advice would to be get another girlfriend.

Okay, that might be jumping the gun a little but let's delve a little. In this year time that you and your girl have been together, have you given her a reason not to trust you? Basically, bub, have you cheated on her?

If you have, then this is your fault and you either have to eat it and work like hell to regain her trust or you have to roll out and leave the relationship. You cannot complain if you've royally screwed up. Period.

But given the fact that you're a guy who seems to be concerned about this, I'll assume you haven't screwed up and your girl just isn't the trusting type. If you've been a good guy for the whole time and she's still throwing you shade, then she has severe trust issues that you may never overcome. Perhaps she was cheated on or her daddy left her when she was a child or she's from Jamaica.

Sorry, one of my exes was Jamaican and she STAYED not trusting me.

Reeeeeegroup.

Either way, you need to decide if this is something you can deal with (read: you can't). Neither of you can thrive in a relationship where trust is more absent than Dennis Rodman's fashion sense. Trust and good head communication are the cornerstone of every good relationship. Nobody likes feeling untrusted so bitterness and resentment will start to creep in. She might have some issues of her own she needs to work out before she can fully and openly be with somebody and trust them. The question is, are you willing to stay around until she does so. If not, then cut your losses sooner rather than later.

The worst feeling is getting your cajones caught in a door. But right behind that is feeling untrusted by somebody you love and you've done nothing to break their trust.

Jay-Z teaches us that sometimes, you must move "on to the next one." Perhaps, grasshopper, that is a lesson best uttered here.

I agree...You have to had at least given her a reason not to trust you. Trust is the most important part of a relationship and if you don't have it , you have nothing..

Speaking as a woman who had her share of back stabbing, her walls may be up because of something that had happened in the past. Encourage her to live in the future, and not look back... I think when our partners are loving and strong for us, it helps to ease the distrust...

It may also be that SHE is the one who has committed acts of infidelity in the past. It is common for cheaters/ex-cheaters to become paranoid that they will be cheated on. If she doesn't trust you, it could be that her mind is in the gutter, so she figures that, since guys are seen more typically as cheaters, you must be ten times worse than her.

This happened with my friend. Her ex was such a jerk to her- always accusing her of cheating. Turned out... he was cheating the whole time.

Good luck.

If her dad left, try to stick it out with her. If your dad, the one man who is always supposed to be there for you, is never there for you, how are you supposed to trust anyone else? It's a very difficult concept to over come, and can take years of therapy and patience. Thoughts of abandonment can consume the mind and cause irrational fear.

That's funny. Jamaican. I just broke up with one after a year. I was still seeing my ex before we were official and he found out and went back to his ex. When we finally committed he was so untrusting yet he was the one who would go out all night and stand me up and stuff. I would go thru his stuff and would find condoms and questionable messages on his phone/facebook but there was always an excuse or i was crazy or i was unfaithful. Well I finally caught him and you know what he told me? Not to date anymore Jamaicans.

I like this web site its a master peace ! Glad I discovered this on google .

Have you considered about introducing some social bookmarking buttons to these blog posts. At least for google.

Good story and a nice summation of the problem. My only problem with the analysis is given that much of the population joined the chorus of deregulatory mythology, given vested interest is inclined toward perpetuation of the current system and given a lack of a popular cheerleader for your arguments, I'm not seeing much in the way of change.

Hey there would you mind sharing which blog platform you're using? I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm having a difficult time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

I'm the same way, I do my best to remain neutral. It's hard, if you communicate with the person the other person dislikes, then you fall out of favor with them! I simple can't dislike a person, just because someone else does, I just can't.

Thanks for your article. It is very unfortunate that over the last years, the travel industry has already been able to to fight terrorism, SARS, tsunamis, bird flu virus, swine flu, along with the first ever real global economic depression. Through all this the industry has proven to be robust, resilient as well as dynamic, acquiring new methods to deal with trouble. There are generally fresh complications and the possiblility to which the field must yet again adapt and respond.

I definitely enjoy your blog, yet I am just having a problem: whenever I load one of your document in IE, the center of the website page is scrambled -- which is unusual. Can I mail you a screenshot? Anyways, carry on the superior job; I genuinely enjoy reading you.
