The fear of being cheated on is usually present in anyone that is in a serious relationship. Even those of us who trust our partners. It’s always there somewhere, no matter how deeply buried. Can any of us trust another human being 100%? Maybe 99.9%, but never 100%. That’s human nature.You may be reading this because you are worried about being the victim of infidelity. Perhaps you have been told by your partner, your friends and family that you should stop being so silly and insecure. Whilst they can’t be blamed for telling you this, do they really understand the way you feel? If they did, perhaps they wouldn’t be so quick to give you such general and unhelpful advice.Everyone has different ‘filters’. Some of us find it hard to be trusting because of past events, some of us find it easier. If you’re suffering from insecurity and paranoia, don’t despair – there are millions just like you. Although these things are negative – there could well be some valid reasons why you feel this way when it comes to your marriage. Maybe your partner spends a lot of time with the opposite sex. Maybe at work. Maybe when they go out socially. Maybe when you are together they talk to the opposite sex in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable. Maybe they make inappropriate comments about others. The point is – their behaviour could be contributing to your feelings of insecurity. They might not even realise it. But you certainly do. Steps need to be taken to deal with this problem.
