Summary

What do you do when someone breaks your trust—but you still like them?


In this episode, Matthew and Audrey talk about how to handle trust issues in dating, including what to do when someone lies, cheats, or makes you feel unsafe in a relationship.


They explore whether “once a cheater, always a cheater” is true, how to rebuild trust after betrayal, and how to know if someone is right for you after they’ve hurt you.


If you’re struggling with trust, mixed signals, or deciding whether to stay or walk away, this episode will help you see your situation more clearly.

you one thing, but then one day they come clean and tell you the reality, which is that they

1:12.8

cheated in that relationship. And that's why it ended.

1:17.9

Oof.

1:19.2

Oof. Yeah. Oof. No.

1:25.3

1:38.9

It's one of those things where if you have always had a very black and white view on cheating, it's something

1:47.8

that would make you feel uncomfortable anyway if somebody even sort of came clean about it in the

1:54.8

beginning and was open about the fact that they had done that and regretted it. I think, as you say,
