Not to get too philosophic here...but I don't know that I agree with that statement. Pavlov's dogs were creatures of habit, human beings have the ability to reason and make decisions. My beautiful girlfriend comes and goes as she pleases. I trust her completely. But at the same time if I ever found out that she had gone to her ex-husband or ex-boyfriend and spread her legs for him...I'd have a tough time accepting the "pattern of interaction" defense! As far as I'm concerned love and trust go hand in hand...either you have it or you don't.
