If you can't trust someone not to step out on you, how can you trust them at all?

Is a sexual betrayal of trust more serious than another betrayal of trust? Isn't it the loss of trust, by whatever means the problem?

It's a character flaw. If you can't be honest enough to stay faithful in a serious relationship, not including marriage, you can't be trusted period. I know what I'm talking about here.

There are many forms of trust. One form of trust is trust that a person will be there through the tough times. Once they betray that trust, you cannot put your faith in them any more, even if they should try to come back.

Someone put it very well in another thread: Make sure the person you decide to marry won't bail out too easily. Relationships are a lot of work, and there are inevitable and serious problems. The people who are stellar successes are those who work at making it work well.
