Do you trust your intuition?

Have you ever heard someone say something like this to you?  

"I knew in my gut that he was cheating on me. I just knew it. But I chose to ignore it. I wish I had trusted my instincts!"

So, tell me, if you're feeling like something is a little off in your relationship, what do you do? Do you trust your instincts or do you just ignore it because you're afraid that if you're wrong, you'll wreck the relationship? How do you find out what's "really" going on without wrecking the relationship?

Do you get sneaky? Get creative? Or do you just go at the problem head on and confront him/her?

Would love to know your thoughts!

    I would confront him and then curse him out just because

    well i just met a guy on the internet, sounded good, perhaps something like a date or coffee at some point. within five days he is in love, i have full-filled his life dream of a mate, etc. then he asks for 150$ wire to some foreign country-calls and text's me multiple times. wanting to know when i sent the dollars, the codes, etc. then the next day calls, texts, IM email that he is so very in love with me, he is getting 90,000 us dollars on Wednesday and will fly into see me and we will be together forever-----are you kidding me?

    always follow your intuition, and keep in mind there is always some truth to a lie

    I have been asking my now ex-boyfriend what is going on for the past 3 or 4 months and he said "nothing." Now he wants to tell me what was wrong. He has a baby what a shock that was. That stupid b------ said I should not be upset because we are "FRIENDS NOW" and he felt that it was no need to tell me. We have been in a 6 year relationship and now we are just friends yea right. Wow this is the great part he still wants to be friends. ISMH.

    I trusted my intuition and have always been somewhat cold hearted and disconnected from any bf I have ever had but my last bf I felt him different for and thought he was cheating and bc I trusted my intuition more than him I made up a story about how I received an anonymous email telling me he was cheating (I suspected it was his ex gf after a phone call I heard him on) and he fell for it and confessed so I dumped him. I did regret it later bc of all my bf's I actually had feelings for him but I suppose it was better to know before I really began to care deeply.
