Okay to make this very long story short, my boyfriend of two months cheated on me. We were bestfriends at first for over a year and a half before we dated. I'm 17 btw. I've always cared so much and beileved in him when no else did, his reputation for being a man whore always bothered me. His phone had been "broken" for about two weeks and I get this text saying hey. I started to notice it wasn't him and whoever was on the phone was beating around the bush about what they were doing. So "kate" let's call her, starts saying that my bf is hot, that he wants her a whole bunch of bull that I simply ignored. Kate ends up sending me a text saying I I shouldn't be happy because Im not the one making out with him now. I broke down. Later on that night he admitted to what she said and showed some remorse. Then day at school I saw he had a HUGE hickey on his neck. I still didn't want to beileve it. So at lunch Kate sits at choking distance so now my friends torment her and I'm a well known person so now the whole cafe hates her. I'm still unhappy my bf and I still together we sat down and talked it out it was long but we thought about it alot i still couldn't believe he let her get a hold of his phone. I know I'm stupid for taking him back but I'm in love. /: I still depressed haven't eaten in 4 days and not really much sleep either.

I hate that you have to go through this. I know how much stuff like that hurts, trust me. But depriving yourself of food and sleep is only going to make it worse. That girl is a horrible person, and no offense, but your boyfriend isn't much better. It's your decision on what to do with your relationship, but if you want my advice, past experience has taught me to run away from guys like that because there's a big chance he'll do it again. But some guys can change. You really need to step back and evaluate your relationship. I know you love him, and I know it's hard, but do you think you can ever fully trust him after this? Trust is extremely important for a relationship to work, and if you're anything like me, worrying about whether or not he's doing these things again is going to drive you insane. Really think about what you want to do, and if you decide you want to try to stay with him, talk to him and try to see if he really is sincere about his apology. If things don't work out, it'll hurt, but I promise it's not the end of the world and you will find someone who knows how to treat you right.

(Rating: 5) Thanks, I know it's true but it's something that I don't want to face. This is something I have a hard time dealing with but great advice so thank you. She is a horrible person and so is he but to forgive myself I have to forgive them both.
