Do you ever get that nagging feeling that something just isn’t right in your relationship?
There are so many reasons why we might struggle to be more trusting.
Sometimes, the problems are deep within us, and stem from experiences in our early years.
Here are some signs that you don’t trust your significant other.

Have you started picking apart your personal appearance?
Do you wonder if your significant other really cares for you?
Pro tip: venture to pinpoint when you started feeling the way that you do.
Did something happen to shake your confidence?

Pro tip: pay attention to how you feel when your partner hangs out with their friends.

Pro tip: imagine asking for something important from your partner.
What is their reaction?
If you are showing signs that you don’t trust your significant other, don’t dismiss it.
Look for any red flags and address the situation.
It’s better to confront your doubts than to deny them!
