But what of trust? I feel like "having trust" is so easily stated as the key to keeping a relationship healthy, and used as a blanket statement as the key to basically any other level of human relationship. If it were so simple to trust one another shouldn't we all trust each other? People distrust because their prior experiences incline them to be more skeptical in new relationships, or their partner is exhibiting signs that they aren't to be trusted-- trusting or distrusting falls on the particular individual in question, while being influenced by the other member and all prior relationships up to the current.. With all these wild factors and variants how is trust a stable key to anything at all? Trust is the most unstable thing I can think of! I'd be better off building my relationships on foundations of stale popcorn.
Edit: i don't know what I mean by stale popcorn. I was trying to think of something crumbly and unpredictable.
