Common consequences of misplaced trust in relationships include emotional pain such as feelings of betrayal, disappointment, and hurt. It can lead to a breakdown in communication and intimacy, causing distance and alienation between partners or friends. Misplaced trust often results in loss of self-esteem and increased anxiety or insecurity. In some cases, it may provoke conflict, resentment, or even the end of the relationship. Additionally, repeated experiences of misplaced trust can make individuals more guarded and less willing to trust others in the future, impacting their ability to form healthy relationships.
