Top ten relationship killers and how to deal with them

MISTRUST

This is murky waters. Many people advise that when trust isn’t in a relationship it’s better to end such a relationship. I cannot ‘categorically’ tell you to do so. I can only advise that you assess the situation and ascertain that you aren’t the one with the challenge. Your trust issues maybe as a result of your childhood. While growing up, your dad/mom may have abandoned you or cheated and you think that all women/men are the same and now you have found the love of your life but you can’t seem to get past believing that all women/men are the same.

What to do: If you discover that it is as a result of your past, discuss with your partner and explain ways that he/she can help out. If you discover you can’t trust your partner as they have proven to be untrustworthy in the past, then yes maybe its time to move on or clearly point out what they have done to stimulate such a feeling and how it can be addressed.
