A little background information, I am 21 years old, my husband is 26, we have 1 4month old child and a 4 year step son together. I had some things that i had done wrong hid deep within myself. My husband found out about these things from people telling him about them. I made a list admitting to ALL of the things i have done wrong. We are still together, and I have ruined the trust. He still thinks in the back of his mind that i am doing these things. But i am not. How is he supposed to come over this feeling that I am not going to do these things to him again? I seriously hope there is an answer for him, he wants things to work, and so do I.

Jennifer
my wife probably feels the same way as yourself and truly I'm not sure what she can do to show me that I can trust her apart from just doing what is right and letting me see that over time. Now though I know this is all she can probably do I still 'feel' she should be doing 'something' to dispell my distrust.
Now my wife had an affair so your issues may not be as deep or far reaching as her actions, however its hard to advise without some details of the things you are referring to.
You dont need to give heaps of detail unless you want to, but some outline may help you get the best advice from the many who are here on this board based on their expriences.
All the best

Recovering trust is fundamental to affair recovery. Harley's approach to affair recovery also involves making sure you are doing what you need to do to have a great marriage. So, whether or not you have had an affair, reading "Surviving an Affair" together and following the suggested steps to recovery will allow you to rebuild trust and also show you how to have a great marriage.
