Trust is almost as equal with love when it comes to relationships. A relationship, though without love but has trust will surely stand the test of time. But though a relationship is abundant in love but lacks trust, is sure doom to fail.

Trust is the foundation that holds a marriage up. I tell you what is important to me and what I expect from you. If you agree to honor and respect what is important to me, I will trust you with my feelings and thoughts.

BE TRUSTWORTHY

Trust isn't given unconditionally. You have to be trustworthy to receive trust.
