Question Posted Wednesday February 4 2009, 5:54 pm
Ok so...I have read a lot of other women's stories about crazy exs and such, and I have to admit that mine is not nearly as intense. Nonetheless, I need advice as to what to do. Here is the story: I have been dating my boyfriend for over a year now. We are both twenty. He is wonderful and very kind. After we had been dating for about a month some girl tried to friend me on myspace. I friended her seeing that she was his friend and I was trying to meet most of them. She sent me a message saying that he and his ex were "doing things" about a week after I had been down to visit him (we're in a long distance relationship). I didn't confront him about it as i have never had a reason to distrust him. A few weeks after that another 'friend' of his said something. He found out about it and told me there was noting to worry about. needless to say, many different girls (or maybe the same one under different accounts) have told me that he has cheated on me with his ex and other girls (his ex even contacted me and told me this). I don't ask much about his previous relationships but i know that the ex that seems to be the center of this was his girlfriend for about a year in highschool and they broke up 'mutually'. I have never been givin a reason to distrust my boyfriend. He is always telling me where he is going and is always available when I call. I know I should just trust him, but I don't want to be the girl who is so in love she is blind. I know this was long, but I would appriciate any help. Thank you so much.
Additional info, added Friday February 13 2009, 12:09 am: thanks for the help
i am actually really sure it is just the ex...and it happened again tonight
someone (prolly the ex) imed me (from a private SN that about 10 people--very trusted people--know)
all this person said was 'you're boyfriend is cheating on you' and when i asked who it was they said 'thats not important' and signed off.

my dad always said that females are the most evil and manipulative creatures on the face of the earth. but this is just my guess, here.
first of all, ask him if any of those girls that are messaging you are really his friends; send him a link to all of their myspaces. ask him if his ex was upset when they broke up, if she was clingy...etc etc. tell him you want this to work, but all of this is confusing you. i can understand why it would. :(
