norudder Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Do you think it's more difficult to regain respect or trust, once lost? Are they inextricable and do you think gender plays a role? Link to post Share on other sites
basil67 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I'm not sure I could ever regain respect once lost, but I think trust could be regained with a lot of transparency. No, I do not think gender plays a role. Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Lucky Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Do you think it's more difficult to regain respect or trust, once lost? Are they inextricable and do you think gender plays a role? I'm trying to think of a set of circumstances that would cause me to lose one without the other. If I don't respect my partner, pretty hard to trust them to hold up their end of a relationship. And if I don't trust them, probably means they've done something disrespectful. Seems intertwined and gender neutral... Mr. Lucky Link to post Share on other sites
Gaeta Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 In general trust. I trust my boss, I know he's a man of his word and if he says something he'll deliver it. Do I respect him though?......Lets say we have an ugly past and it's hard at times. I don's lack respect toward him ever but in my heart and mind it's hard to feel the type of respect I had once for him. In a romantic relationship I'd need both, I would not stick around someone I don't trust or don't respect. Link to post Share on other sites
Gretchen12 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I think it's harder to gain trust. Trust is my own feelings. Respect is dependant on a set of principles that are not shifting at a whim. So he can regain my respect by what he does. The respect is objective. I can respect someone I dislike. Trust is not entirely dependant on what he does. People who are not trusting, just won't trust anybody. It's an emotion. Link to post Share on other sites
