How do i move past it and trust agen?

0

My soon to be ex husband spent years telling me he was fine with who i am and supported me. He pushed me into trying things i wanted and to be myself, He would then ignore me for his computer games and yell at me if i bothered him at all even if he wasnt bissy. He left me at a friends for days longer than planned becouse he didnt want to drive the few min to come get me. He recently left me when i stated opening up and accepting who i am. now im having a hard time trusting the people im in a relationship with now and I want to trust them not to do the same thing. How do i learn to trust people agen?

Hi Celtic,

This must've been a very unpleasant time in your life, but this kind of behavior never starts out of nothing.
Is there anything in his life that could've triggered all of this? Professional, social circles, family related etc., they could all have something to do with his changed behavior.

Finding out what actually caused this will eliminate the possibility that it had something to do with you. Or at least that's what i think you need in order to feel better about yourself again.

I can tell you now that there's probably nothing you did since you seem rather taken by surprise by all of this, so you definitely have no reason to feel bad about yourself.
As far as trusting other people again: You can't control this. If you love someone and you feel comfortable with them, and they feel the same way about you, they're worth it to give them your trust. But what they do with it afterwards is something you can't change. You can only do everything you can to show them that you're worth it but don't think too far ahead. Not all people are put on this world to hurt you!

Have faith and don't hesitate to pm me if you'd like to talk :)

Well I'd imagine after this experience you'd have a better idea of some red flags to look for in the people you are dating. There's nothing wrong with being cautious at first. I think that's important. You have to be selfish in the initial stages or you'll end up with someone you're not even compatible with. So try to really examine the person in that light. Once you've found someone who you believe to be trustworthy, it's a process I think in fully trusting. I think sharing your past experiences with the person will help them better understand your fears though and if they are a loving person, they'll probably help you feel better and that will leave you wanting to trust them.
