I’ve been with my boyfriend for 9 months. We’ve been engaged for 4 months. We’re both 19. All we do if fight (for about 7 months it’s been nothing really but fighting). He always says how he thinks my feelings have dropped for him. He says I’ve changed. He acts like he doesn’t trust me anymore. He always has me swear on our relationship that I’m being honest. We both have bad jealousy, trust, and anger issues. He has broken up with me twice now, once since we got engaged because I talked to a guy. Every time I know it’s because he's mad, but how can I convince him I never lie to him, I’m the same just more open and I haven't lost feelings for him? This is killing our relationship and if things don’t change soon I don’t know if we are going to make it.

You both have trust issues, Trust plays a huge factor in relationships and without it there is no relationship. You two are engaged and already your boyfriend is suspecting you of cheating. Your boyfriend might have not of said those exact words but he's said enough by making you swear on your relationship. Guess what, He broke up with you TWICE while you were engaged too him. I would think long and hard to whether you want to marry this man. You wouldn't want to walk down the isle and make a big mistake. You both need to chill out, I recommend trying couples counseling because there is no way a marriage is going to work out if you both can't trust one another. Jealousy and Trust issues can drain out a relationship and it can certainly drain out a marriage. If he refuses couples counseling, Then obviously he doesn't want to fix it and I would give the ring back and move on. [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
