How do I earn his trust back?


Question Posted Friday April 14 2006, 12:35 pm

Ok, so I was on holiday the other week, and I met a guy. We got on really really well, and talked about everything. All the rubbish going on in each of our lives, and I really trusted him. We got a great friendship going in a week. And we both fancied each other a lot too, everyone there thought we were going out because of how we acted around each other. I told him I have a boyfriend who I've been with 7 months, and we decided it would be too wrong to do anything together, as I love my boyfriend and he didn't want to spoil my relationship.
But in the end, we did kis. Not much but still, we kissed.
I told my boyfriend when I got home, and he was upset, but he forgave me. But I couldn't stop thinking about the other guy, we got so close and I missed him. He only lives a very short train ride away from me, so this week we aranged to meet up. My boyfriend naturally wasn't happy about it, and didn't want me to go, but he said it was up to me. I promised him loads of times that nothing would happen between me and the other guy, and I meant it.
Unfortunately, I lost control and we did kiss. Lots and lots. We both knew it was wrong, and have decided now not to meet alone again.
I've told my boyfriend again, and he says he forgives me (I know I don't deserve it) but it'll take time for him to trust me again. How can I earn his trust back and show him I'm really sorry?

Tell him you made a mistake and that everyone does. Just remember, don't do this again.

But it sounds like to me that your boyfriend really likes you and most guys wouldn't do that. Plus, think of this. If you broke up with your boyfriend and went out with this other guy. He might now forgive that easy. Just be friends with this guy and make it clear to him that you want nothing else.

It sounds to me that you, so far, have a healthy relationship with your boyfriend. Spend time with him. Go out to see a movie; do things together that way he will know that you don't do anything behind his back.

But for what I just said, please use it. I'm sure your boyfriend will trust you again. Good luck.
