must read

This book is a must-read. It had many helpful tools and included many questions to ask yourself when considering leaving or staying in a relationship. The questions are tough, to the point and very succinct.

Thumbs up!

Very informative and a great help. Overall I loved the book!
The only issue I had was the few, occasional swearing.

If you are struggling with a betrayal, LISTEN!

This book has been extremely helpful. I never thought I could regain trust once betrayed, but this book has given me a completely different perspective. I am so thankful to have found it when I was in such a bad place. It is a good balance between real life stories and counseling. If you are hurt and betrayed, or if you betrayed someone and cannot fully understand why that person is so hurt, listen to this book. I felt like it was my support for the way I was feeling, and it gave me hope for a trusting future.

Very Insightful

Explained well and great tools to combat the issues... just picked up her book "Why Couples Fight"

The candor and the relevance of each of the stories of each couple very practical and able to educate and encourage the reader.

Synopsis of I Love You but I Don’t Trust You

In I Love You but I Don’t Trust You, author Mira Kirshenbaum provides a compassionate and practical roadmap for couples navigating the challenging terrain of broken trust. Whether the breach stems from infidelity, dishonesty, or patterns of betrayal, Kirshenbaum emphasizes that rebuilding trust is possible when both partners are willing to commit to the process of healing.

The book outlines how trust is damaged, why it matters, and the specific steps needed to rebuild it. Kirshenbaum addresses the pain of betrayal with empathy, while offering tools for honest communication, setting boundaries, and creating a foundation of mutual understanding and accountability. She guides couples through the emotional complexities of trust repair, helping them recognize that rebuilding isn’t about forgetting the past but forging a stronger, more resilient bond in its wake.

With an encouraging tone, the book inspires hope by showing that broken trust does not have to mean the end of a marriage. For those ready to work together, it is an invitation to face the pain, uncover the truth, and build a relationship that thrives on honesty, love, and renewed connection. If both partners are willing to lean in and rebuild, Kirshenbaum demonstrates that healing is not only possible but transformative.

This is a story of hope, redemption, and the power of love to overcome even the deepest wounds.

Thankful to have read this

This book was so easy to listen to and absorb the information on my hour long commute to work each day. I feel like I learned so much about my own trust issues and how to enable and heal trust in relationships. I feel like I can be a better partner after this book, now I just need to get my partner to listen to it! :) I am tempted to buy the paper version so I can have it for quick reference. I would recommend this book to anyone who has experienced a betrayal or is dealing with any sort of trust issue with their partner. Many relationship problems can be rooted with trust issues and as she says in the book, love is nothing without trust.
