Things you need to do:

1. Bang your girl harder, satisfy her every sexual need, that way she does not have to seek it out from the outside.

2. She cheated on you, she is burned, get another fish from the sea. I would never ever trust a chick if she cheated on me, I don't care how good we are together or how long we have been going out, it obviously isent good enough.

3. Don't drink and smash yourself too much and get seperated in the first place, the fact that you actually did that doesnt sound like you guys have a strong relationship with each other.

4. If she explodes at you asking about her cheating on you (especially if she has done it in the past) then there is something wrong there. She should be more considerate and relaxed towards the matter especially knowing your sensitive to the issue.

5. Test her sexual ho'ness level. Your girl may be a freak. Ask her if she would want to have a threesome with you and another guy. If the answer is yes, she is a cum dumpster and is probably cheating on you.

I have been cheated on before. I forgave. Watched it happen again. I have never known someone who cheated and never did it again.

There is a tremendous difference between telling a white lie and thoroughly manipulating someone you profess to love and care about. Don't lose sight of that, and don't forget it. There are too many people in the world who will show you the consideration you deserve.

I wish you the best in your decision, and I hope you decide to move on as quickly as possible for your own sake.

She had never done it before, and I honestly believe she will not do it again.
For a while, things were very unbalanced because of it--all of her past relationships involved her completely having the upper hand. After a while of working on it, I got things how they should be. At this point there is a fair amount of balance, but when something like this comes along, I feel like it's a relapse. If she would handle it more civil, it would be over with, done... but she doesn't like being accused of something she didn't do wrong--I guess she will just needs to grow up some.

Thats the bad thing about women (and yes Im generalizing) ... You cant accuse them of anything, they always find a way to turn your arguments against you.. Its stupid

John - So... a friend of mine told me you went out with some guy?
Mary - What? Dont you trust me, is that it?

They never really tell you if they did it or not.. So I say ditch her

I am sorry, but you should have ended there. Now you are suffering from the consequence of continuing the relationship. Because she has cheated on you already, you will always doubt her, whether she really cheats again or not. What is the point of the relationship if you cannot trust your SO?

If I was in your shoes, I would have terminated the relationship when I found out she was cheating. The incident would always linger in back of my mind, eating me up.

i just find it hilarious that she thinks he can 100% trust her after that. if my gf cheated id be out the front door asap...i have no room for that headache in my life.

she sounds like my old ex..... when ever you try to confront her on anything she goes into batshit mode, i bet she turns absolutely anything into an arguement too OP? i ditched the bitch asap

I'm calling BS. How do you know she never did it before with another person, if not you? Because she told you? I shouldn't have to explain why there's something wrong with that. I find it unlilkely that somebody who would cross the moral boundary of cheating would find it beneath them to lie about the cheating they did.

But if you really believe that she doesn't lie and she will never cheat again.... then why the hell does this thread exist? You're trying to claim that you find her completely trustworthy, yet you find it necessary to browbeat her about where she was and who she was with all the time. It sounds like both of you are lying, and at least one of you is lying to themselves.

She doesn't really want to be with you, and when she finds another guy she will ditch you, until then she will string you along, but when you don't meet every demand she wants, she will just have a fling. It also sounds like you already kind of know this, but are too scared to be alone.

I think it may be time to try to talk it out with her, and if she still refuses, then dump her. Relationships have to be a two way street. If they are not, then the relationship cannot be. Learn to accept it. I know that is a hard thing to do, when you feel emotionally attached to someone, but sometimes it is the best thing to step away from something and really try to look at it from a objective perspective.

This is exactly why if something like that had happened to me, there's no way I'd ever be able to totally 100% trust that person again. And it's not fair to myself or her to be this way, so I'd have to kick her to the curb. But if you can make it work, more power to you.

Despite your trust issues, if your g/f is hot...you're going to have to do better. When you got split up, you should have searched for her then. I'm not saying to crowd her, but you need to communicate better and make sure that you know what each other are doing so you can alleviate your suspisions before they start. You obviously care about this girl because you don't fully trust her...and you've been going out a while. Jealousy is a sign that you care. Best advice, talk to her abou it. Tell her that you care and that you're going to pay more attention to her if she wants you to and apologize for acting like an idiot...then ask her to dinner and splurge. Get her a card for no reason, maybe some flowers....etc...

If you don't create an environment for communication, you're damaging the chances that you'll both fully understand your expectations of each other. You'll also end up taking a chance that one of you will feel like the other isn't putting forth enough effort in the relationship to be together and that will result in a breakup, induced by either cheating or lack of respect....

Your relationship is over. If you can't trust her 100% now, then it only gets worse. If she freaks out when you confront her on something like this, then it only gets worse.

Its not worth it. Trust me.

If this were true, don't you think you'd be able to forgive her and feel 100% comfortable and trusting? Something to think about.

How constructive, thank you.

It was constructive but you're too young to realize. The trust you had before will never again reach that same level. If it's something you can live with then you'll be fine. However, I would prefer to not deal with trust issues in a relationship. She cheated and you didn't run away means she will always have the upper hand.

:thumbsup:

Find poon elsewhere.

Trust is key. Trust is also hard work.

The relationship is doomed if you don't really talk it out and work hard for it.

1) You will NEVER have the amount of trust with her as you did before she cheated on you. EVER!!!

2) You will doubt her so much as time goes on you may eventually lose interest in her.

3) Who is to know she did not cheat on any previous boyfriends and who is to know that she will not do it again.

4) Cheating is not only disrepecting you as a person but also everything you stand for.

5) If you ask her something and she goes apeshit on you and never tells you the answer then she is lying her ass off and does not want to tell you the truth because she knows that you will just pissed off and drop it and still be with her.

6) You need to drop the pussy man act and tell her to her face that if she can not have a civilized conversation with you then your leaving her ass because there are many other girls out there that will treat you with the respect that you deserve and NOT cheat on you.

7) Why go through life doubting your partner about everything she does by herself. This is only causing you pain and you alone.

8) Why do you accept her bullshit responses that never truely answer your question. If you keep demanding the answer and she leaves then say "****** it, leave then! Who gives a ******!" because truely YOU SHOULD NOT GIVE A ****** IF SHE LEAVES... If she truely loved you she would not keep any secrets from you and would not go apeshit on you.

I can keep going on and on about everything you did was WRONG from the time you said

"We nearly broke up, but decided to give it another try. "

****** THAT ******... leave her ass. She SHOULD OF THOUGHT ABOUT YOU LEAVING HER THE AMOUNT SHE ****** CHEATED ON YOU...

Sorry for the language but girls like this ****** piss me off... and take it from me I learned the HARD WAY!

You should offer that as a sketch to Family Guy. Bang on the money. Very nice :laugh:

OP:

Man up, tell her that that evening has made you realise you'll never be able to trust her. Done.

I'd offer tongue in cheek advice on how to exact revenge, but I got banned for it last time :)

Is she really worth all this? If she already cheated on you, don't be surprised when you can't trust her...maybe it's time to move on.
