How to build trust
Forgiveness
There is no such thing as a perfect person there are only imperfect people that come together as one despite their differences. You should avoid expecting too much from your partner because as the infatuation wears off, you will see the whole person as they really are. You will see the good and bad side of the person you are in a relationship with. If you really love that person you will accept their faults and work through your relationship. Trust is formed when both parties work together despite their differences.
There is another spelling for love that people miss out on. Love is not only spelled with L-O-V-E but also with T-I-M-E. Spending time with each other is an important aspect of building trust. The more time you spend together the more trust you will develop. You will see the other person as they are and you will develop a sense of security and comfort around them. The time you spend together will lead to the breaking down of the barriers between the two of you. Once the barriers are broken you and your partner will be more comfortable with each other and will communicate better.

Individuality
There is a reason why two people are attracted to each other, it is because of their unique traits that mesh well with each other.

The trust will be shaken once you start trying to frame the person into who you want them to be instead of who they really are. Develop the trust between you and your partner by doing things separately in some occasions. Let the other person pursue their dreams and pursue your dreams as well. Lift each other up in times of trouble and build each others confidence. Once you or your partner loses their individuality things start to get boring and anxiety starts to trickle in.
