9 steps to rebuilding trust in marriage

8. Refuse to fall back into the same trust-breaking behavior.

When trust has been damaged in a specific area (lying, porn, infidelity, finances, disrespect, etc.) it’s incredibly damaging to the trust in you marriage to be a “repeat offender.” We’re all works in progress and we all blow it sometimes, but you need to recognize that each time you fall back into this negative habit/behavior, you’re reopening an old wound and you’re making trust much more difficult to rebuild. Don’t fall into a cycle of giving empty apologies and making empty promises. Take drastic action to change your behavior and improve your marriage.
