re: Do you actually trust your SO?

Nope. I've trusted her from day one. Unlike my ex, she doesn't do stupid shite to make me not trust her.

Sounds like you've got a solid deal. Congrats. My relationship got off to a rocky start and began on the heels of another previous relationship that was pretty damn good, for the most part. Maybe how it starts plays a big role.

We started long distance. I think he had more trouble with trust at the beginning. It was like this blind faith and constant communication that got us through.

I had a shaky time where I was just being insecure. Not sure what I was doing career wise or where our relationship was going. Got paranoid over a few insignificant things.

But I got over my crap and we are stronger than ever I'd say. I trust him completely. It's scary to do so but you just can't be all that happy with someone if you don't trust them.

She still tried profusely to deny it even after the patch number for Cabo came up on my phone when she called from her cell.

She isn't too good at it either

Well first, you can spoof any of the tracking apps no matter what. Most of the time they aren't accurate anyway. In my eyes it's easier to cheat with the tracking app. Spoof it, oh I'm at work, gobbling ding dong all the live long day.

I believe the faith thing is the best way to describe it. To not trust people is human nature. I married my wife putting full faith into her that she wouldn't cheat. Do I trust her, shite no, I don't even trust my parents.

Of course, wouldn't have married him if I didn't.

I trust my wife more than anyone in the world including myself. Would not trade that piece of mind for anything. She is the most dependable person I have ever known.

you recognize that she could leave that phone at home...and go to the hotel right?

no

Trust is way, way overrated in most relationships. I mean 99% of relationships end up in the shitter anyway, so why get ulcers over fidelity? Who cares about trust and all that nonsense when the odds that your relationship will stick are like 1 in 100?
