Rebuilding trust after betrayal takes consistent honesty over time, not just apologies. The person who broke trust has to be fully transparent, take responsibility without excuses, and show through actions that the behavior has changed. The hurt person also needs space to process emotions and decide if they’re willing to rebuild, because trust can’t be forced. In most cases, it’s a slow process, and both people have to commit to clear boundaries and ongoing communication for it to even have a chance.
