It takes longer than a few months to build up a trusting partnership IMO. If you enjoy riding this horse a lot of the time and you are only frightening yourself about what he might do, rather than anything he's actually done, I just think you need to stick at taking small steps forward and building confidence in each other. I honestly wouldn't give up yet if plenty of stuff is working, unless you just don't really like the horse to ride generally or believe that, for you, he's unsafe.
