It took a few years to get rid of the initial mistrust. Years.
So now I am just, generally, good at spotting liars. Whether half truths, or to yourself. I tend to spot it. I also tend to try and doubt it a bit, because I know, at times, I am more untrusting then I'd like.
I especially don't like this when I am show, point blank the truth of something, yet the lie remains. Or if I end up finding out the truth later on. These are kind of painful for me because they are so like that horrid relationship.
I can't expect anyone to understand. You weren't there. You didn't see the array of un-truth I faced for well over 3 years.
I can tell you however, that honestly, I can't stand it. I hate it when people lie to me. Especially about the little stuff.
I hurts.

I still have trust issues from my ex. It causes issues now, but I'm trying to work through them. It'll take time and some people who are able to show you that not everyone is untrustworthy. And, you're not alone.
