Hi everyone. I am 34 years old, single. I have trust issues when it comes to dating, and men. Even though I haven’t dated in a few years, I don’t know that I will ever be able to trust someone enough to be in a relationship with them. Do others feel this way, or maybe felt this way in the past?

I think that seeing the many things I do online or from people in my life about cheating, abuse, manipulation, etc etc, plus my own personal experiences, I don’t see how anyone ever stays together. I know logically this is extreme thinking, there are obviously good men and good relationships that last. I just don’t know, I went to be with someone, to have a partner, but I don’t know that I would ever fully trust someone.
