trouble trusting boyfriend because of ex boyfriend
Question Posted Tuesday November 27 2012, 1:35 am
So my current boyfriend is the best boyfriend I have ever had. He treats me like I am his princess and I could never ask for anyone better. but because my ex boyfriend treated me so badly i.e. cheated on me many times, hit me once, made me feel worthless and that no one wants me and just horrible things that i've gotten over and feel better about myself because i know he just did all that to manipulate me to keep me with him. and that's why i kept going back to him, because he was so good at manipulating me. and we've been broken up for a while and i have my new amazing boyfriend that my best friend set me up with. but just because of that past relationship. i'm just a little on edge that it will happen again. i am able to hold it in and think about it most of the time and talk about it if i really think its something to worry about, but he still talks to his ex girlfriends who he was both with for 2 years each. its nothing inappropriate but just from past experience it gets me worried. i just really need advice

Tell him how you feel about the situation an maybe he can help assure you that the things in your previous relationship won't happen in this one.
