Remember, people can be convincing. Sometimes people say the “right” thing, but it’s just a way to re-engage you. That’s why you want to look for words and actions lining up. You might not be able to tell if someone is to be trusted until they show you, over and over again, until it becomes something you can trust. That’s why you have to be discerning here before you reconcile, looking for a genuine, authentic expression of reflection and acknowledgment.
