How can I start trusting my boyfriend again?

I just broke up with my boyfriend because he’s lied many times, went back on his word and did stuff behind my back that he knew would upset me. He says he’s very sorry and will be honest with me from now on, but he said that before and that’s why we broke up. I think the main problem is that we live apart and there’s no way I can know what’s going on with him, so he can tell me (or not tell me) anything and he knows I have no way of knowing the truth.

Our problems started months ago when I asked him about seeing his myspace and he acted very secretive about it and wouldn’t let me see it for days. Finally he took some screenshots for me and I found out he was talking to a friend I felt he had a very inappropriate relationship with. He also told me he had 2 other accounts, supposedly for his business, both where he pretended to be a single bi girl looking for a relationship. There were all these girls leaving sexy messages and talking about trading pictures if you know what I mean.

I got really mad, and he promised to delete the accounts and stop talking to that girl. Well, he didn’t do that and also kept speaking to that chick until he told me about it and we fought. Finally he deleted it and he swore to me that he was going to be open and honest with me from now on and no more myspace, so I took him back. It seemed like everything was going perfect. Recently he asked me how I felt about him having a myspace to promote his website, and I told him after the recent arguments I didn’t feel comfortable with it yet but in the future I might be. I thought this was great that he be open and asked me first and was concerned about my feelings. Well, last week he confessed that he got a new account over a month ago. I’m so hurt. He promised he wasn’t going to have one and went behind my back and did it anyway.

I love him with all my heart and he says he loves me too. He wants to make up but I’m not sure how I can trust him again. The only way we can rebuild trust is if I know he’s not sneaking around behind my back doing crap like that online again, and that I can see he’s keeping his word to me about it. I’m not just going to hope he’s being truthful and be made a fool of again. But since we live apart it seems impossible for me to know if he’s be trustworthy. How can I know he’s not lying and keeping a secret myspace again so I can trust him again?

Answer #1

Hi Dear,

Things like that happen especially if your relationship it’s not deep yet.

From what you wrote I can see that you love him so much even your jealousy make you more attached to him.

It’s not important if he have account or not, the important is you can trust him again? because maybe now it’s account and after 2 years it’s another girl etc.

you have to know 2 things very important for your problem:

1)don’t be slave for your lover and I mean by that don’t try to fix all the problem just from your side. take 50% of your responsibility to keep the relationship. yes it’s hard sometimes I know.

2)don’t run like crazy after him even you know he’s lying on you, Because when he knows that you want to keep him even he does maybe bad things, he’ll do it again and again, because he BELIEVE that you’re going to stay with him., especially if it happened more than once.

let me give you an example:

it’s like a husband who cheats on his wife. the first time it’s very hard to cheat, but if his wife knew about it and forgave him, it will be more easiest for him to cheat again because he knows that his wife can forgive and it’s not going to be so hard on her bla bla bla…but if his wife left him, he will run after her if he truly love her etc.

So work on that part from your side. BE STRICT. and what I mean by that is show him that you can leave him one day and it’s not a game that he can play it wherever he wants. Show him that you have feelings and not all the feelings that you have is just for him, you have feelings and respect for yourself and you don’t like untrusted guys.

How to be strict?

well you said he did it again so stay far from him for a while, don’t call him don’t email him and see what happen. Try to make him jealous and see if he truly loves you. If Yes he stops all the internet stuff that he’s doing and he will do it just for you.

How to make him jealous and he is faraway from u?

well don’t answer the phone, let someone else answer and say for example, she went out with friend, but who’s the friend don’t let him know boy or girl. don’t answer your cellphone, let him feel the same feelings that you had. when you chat online don’t be an answer machine for his questions on msn or yahoo, be slow and smart and let him think that maybe you’re chatting with someone else. things like that will make him crazy if he AND I REPEAT if he really loves you.

How to be sure that I can trust him again?

well you know your boyfriend more than me, you can know from his voice or from his eyes especially. You can see that in what he’s doing. Is he giving you more time? is he spending more time with you online chatting? He wants to see you? when he see you, he fall on you like a crazy lover? when he say “I LOVE U” he do it physically too, like he come closer to you? he hug you? or it’s just a word from his mouth?

You said that he lives faraway from you and you can’t see each other a lot. Well this thing should make him more passionate for you when he see you. Check his eyes when he see you for the first moment after a while, he look straight in your eyes or somewhere else?

Be Smart and use your brain like a guide and not your heart

BE CAREFUL: If you know that your boyfriend really loves you and 85% of the time we know. In this case my ideas can help, BUT if he doesn’t, in this case the things you’re going to do will be a CHANCE for him to leave you, BUT it’s better to be now and not later, because it will hurts more.

Good Luck and stay in touch

Answer #2

Ask him for his email and password simply. And if he doesn’t want to give it too you then you shud know what’s going on.

Answer #3

I dont know but it sounds like you should leave him. if he cant stop making the accounts and talking to the girls there is a problem! if you really want to be with him I suggest you give him 1 last chance and if he does it again then you have 2 go. if you told him not to make the accounts and he keeps making them no matter what you say that is disrespectful and that means that making the accounts must be important to him so it sounds like he has a problem.

Answer #4

Well,maybe you can try testing him?If you really cant build trust on him,then forget about it.Is not like you never try right?He lied on you.Although everyone will make mistakes,but if a person keep repeat the mistakes that actually means that he will always repeat.Are you sure you want to get hurt again?Think about it.

Anything can fun mail me.^^ Good luck!
