hi. i have issues trusting everyone, even myself. so that's why i'm asking this question. my boyfriend is great & i love him but i just...i cant trust him. before i dated him he dated one of my good friends & that didnt work out, but theres been rumors going on right now that he told her he still has feelings for her. and i mean this actually doesnt surprise me, because hes got a history of screwing girls over...for other girls. and that hurts me because i get jealous easily and he has the player impression. i dont know if he would hurt me. but that really hurt me when i found out that my friend was bragging that he still likes her (which is actually how i found out that hes still into her). so i confronted him about it...i dont know if this was the right thing to do, but i did, and i asked him what he told her. now, he could VERY easily twist the truth because i dont know exactly what he said to her. but apparently he told her that he "never stopped liking her" and then he told me that he "doesnt like her". so MAYBE IM JUST PARANOID. i have no idea. but i mean idk...i want to give him my trust. and i want to trust that my friend wouldnt make up something like that...but people were also saying that she probably made up the rumor to get me jealous & so that she could break us up. GEEZ i feel so paranoid. but i LOVE my boyfriend. i want us to be together forever. i just dont want him to take advantage of that. and i dont want to let him go. but i want to be able to trust him. and i dont want him to abuse my trust. idk what to do. any help would be greatly appreicated sorry so long ilu guys<3
If your boyfriend really likes you, he won't break up with you for your friend, and he'll tell you the truth. If he's lying to you, that's an immeadiate sign you should see to break up with him. Also, if he's lying, you know your friend was right all along & wasn't making anything up, so she's sort of trustworthy.
Just don't trust anyone until you find out the truth. If your boyfriend's not lying, don't trust your friend, and if he is, trust your friend. [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]
