    You didn't buy trust insurance when you got married?

    Trust is hard won.. and easily lost... getting it back is even harder... and sometimes impossible. You are going to have to go over and beyond what she wants to even have a chance... and its always possible she will never get it back.

    I agree with Smoothy 100% and also think it's a BIG mistake to drag your children and/or stepchildren into this. DON'T CONFIDE IN YOUR CHILDREN. These are adult problems and between you and your wife.

    The first thing you need to do is, stop playing games with each other. When she was ignoring you and acting like you didn't care, you turned around and did the same thing to her, and where did that get you.

    The two of you need to talk, talk and talk some more. Get into marriage counselling if you can, and learn how to communicate. If you cannot communicate, how can you even begin to address trust issues, or know what those trust issues are.

    Communicating is not about just wanting to, or needing to. Communicating is about establishing a connection between the two of you, so there is no doubt about love, trust,compatibility. There is no magic fairy that is going to suddenly throw some happy dust on the two of you, and you'll live out your dreams in never never land.

    You have to make it happen. Build a foundation, and start with communicating. Trust will come when you know enough about your partner, that you have confidence in common goals and you can reasonably expect that things will only get stronger.

    If you allow things to remain as they are, and choose to just be unhappy, without even trying something concrete to address the issues, you are doomed to fail.

    It is very unfair to confide in your daughter. That then puts the burden of solving your problems on her shoulders- which is too big a burden for her to carry. It is not her place to solve your problems. It is bettween adults, and adults only. Private and confidential.

    You and your wife are acting like children. Time to grow up, get into counselling, learn what you need to learn, and work hard on your marriage.
