To gain another's trust takes trust building. This takes a lot of patience and love and possibly distance depending on the person.

The person has really shown regret over their actions and is open to change. It might be a difficult path to trusting again and you feel like that person has had enough chances. If the change is genuine trust again but also be open to others opinions because sometimes they might see what you don't.

This is a tough one! Sometimes you just got to give it time and see if they can prove to themselves and to you that they have what it takes to stop the cycle of lying!

Regaining trust for someone can be very difficult when they have consistently lied. Talking to the person about this and telling them how it makes you feel may be the first step to sorting out this situation and if you feel that the person has stopped lying, your trust for them may gradually build up again.

You have every right not to let someone who has consistently lied back into your circle of trust until you are ready, if ever. You own the keys to your heart and it's up to you who you let in.

I don't think you can ever FULLY trust anyone who continually lies. I honestly think that's impossible. It's like the boy who cried wolf. When you lie over and over and over again, it's get hard for anyone to tell what's true and not. My best bet is to not even associate with someone who lies continually. Unless they actually do show that they've changed and there's solid proof.
