Trust is built slowly and broken quickly. I don't want to go into detail about what's happened, but let's just say with this individual, not much trust was ever built up in the first place, and recently they took that little bit of trust and smashed it against the floor. I'm not sure our trust is reparable, or if I even want to pursue that relationship anymore if it is.
I've been looking online for ideas and answers, and all I've found is countless pages talking about how to repair trust once it's broken. Sure, I could pursue that route, but honestly I don't think this individual deserves anything from me anymore and I'm not sure that would be worth my time.
So I guess I'm asking, how would you guys (or have you in the past) react to a major breach of trust, both emotionally and behaviorally in terms of your relationship with the others involved?
Edit: I guess I'm willing to add as a relevant consideration that this individual is a close family member I'm currently largely dependent on.
