When the trust has been broken in a relationship, the respect disappears. Everything becomes suspect.
After the trust has been shattered, the injured spouse does not trust the decision making of the other. Even if the two decide to 'forgive' and move forward there is still deep seated hurt and resentment. The injured spouse has to make the choice to move forward. If the spouse refuses to move forward the unspoken resentment will silently rear it's head whenever another issue comes up.
Agree
before the disagreement, that neither will try to slay the other, while making their case.
