im not on my period or anything. and i dont believe im about to be. but i have been feeling sick for the past two days, due to anxiety. its not like something really bad is going on in my life, but i just feel really stupid.
i have major trust issues. i dont trust anyone. not even my own parents. i used to trust my boyfriend, but now i dont. i got drunk the other night and told him a lotta stuff that i never wanted to tell him. now he knows too much and i dont want him to know anything! well karma is being fair because last night, HE got drunk and told me a lotta stuff. but not as personal as what i told him. and he doesnt even feel stupid for it. i have reason to believe he was faking being drunk just to make me feel better.
how do i know for sure if he really was? and how do i know he's telling the truth when he says hes sorry? and also how do i know if he's even telling the truth when he says he loves me and will never hurt me again???
i have watched plenty of movies where guys say that, and then flush it down the drain with one stupid mistake.
please help me. i really love him and i dont wanna drive him away like i have with everyone else!
im 15/f btw...

Plain & simple?
You don't.
You just have to trust him.
Trust isn't something that can be aquired overnight. You have to work at it. You have to be willing to put whatever happened behind you.
But in my opinion, if he wasn't sorry, he probably wouldn't have said he was in the first place -- he would've just broken up with you right then & there. If he says he loves you & will never hurt you again, give him a second chance. You said you told him some stuff you shouldn't have, & he told you stuff he shouldn't have, so you're even. The best thing to do now is to try to put it all behind you. :)
