reader, anonymous, writes (21 December 2006): Trust and doubt, though work hand in hand, aren't the same things. You can trust someone, but still doubt him/her. Trust is a frame of mind, and doubt can not be avoided, even if you try.
To the basics, you don't need to do anything. If the doubt overwhelms your trust for him, then you can free your insecurities by breaking up with him. Otherwise, for trust to work, it will take time and patience.
