FAQs
Should I tell someone if their partner is cheating?
In most cases, it is best not to insert oneself into a relationship without permission. Express compassion for the situation, but ultimately couples need space to make their own choices.

Avoiding meaningful communication, secrecy around phones/email, increased arguments, possessiveness, and withdrawal are some signs trust is breaking down.
How can we regain lost trust?
Rebuilding trust requires honest dialogue, taking responsibility for one's actions, giving your partner space and time, and perhaps seeking help from a couples counselor.
