The article presents the theoretical analysis of the problem of trust in the marital relationship. The content and the main functions of trust in close interpersonal relations are highlighted. Trust in the marital relationship is seen as spouse's confidence in honesty and absence of harm, betrayal by the other spouse, his / her responsibility, reliability and care. It allows a person to feel safe and accepted, indicating the satisfaction of his / her basic psychological needs for security, love and acceptance. The results of the empirical study aimed at investigating the manifestation of trust of married women and perceptions about it in their relationships with men are discussed.
