You don't really say how long you've been together but my guess is, it'll come with time. His trust issues could be deep-seated, back to his childhood, or former relationships. Some people never trust anyone completely but they learn not to accuse at the drop of a hat either. I hope he will outgrow this problem eventually.

You must understand that marriage is a CONTRACT for whatever you have agreed upon. DID HE EVER AGREED TO TRUST ANYONE INCLUDING YOU? That is his right to TRUST or NOT TRUST anyone. If you have the ability to convince him that "It is better to trust everyone until they prove that are not trustworthy" then you win. He insists to convince you that" It is better NOT TO TRUST ANYONE unless they can prove that they are trustworthy". Well, it looks like your husband has won so far. Good luck to you!
