Lost trust means lost respect.
Respect is the unseen partner to trust. If trust isn't present, respect cannot be, either. If you are in any sort of relationship where trust has been broken or was never present, the way you interact with the other person or people cannot function in a healthy way. In the example where trust has been broken, unless or until it is repaired, the security and stability that was once present will become absent. During the time when trust is under repair or just broken, the level of respect changes. Respect for the person who broke the trust's privacy, discernment, time, and autonomy are absent. This may seem altogether justifiable. If the person wishes to repair the trust, they must become absolutely honest and transparent in order to prove themselves. But if they actually didn't make a mistake but were caught in poor choices, they likely have no true desire to actually repair the trust, just a desire to repair the ease at which they could abuse it in anonymity....
