UNDERSTAND
What is happening here?
Trust may be affected by the gap between a promise and what happens over time. A clear agreement can name behavior, consent, boundaries, and a review point. It cannot require trust, guarantee reconciliation, or settle whether staying in a relationship is right.

Notice. Discuss. Take one thing.
For thoughtful facilitation
Open with the concept, demonstrate one fictional example, allow individual exploration or paired discussion, and close with one optional takeaway. Ask what fits the participant’s culture, language, access needs, and present capacity. Invite observation instead of disclosure; do not interpret participation as a measure of motivation.
Fit and care: Use manageable or fictional examples and adapt within competence. This is educational practice, not diagnosis, crisis care, or individualized treatment.
