writes: My boyfriend and I broke up in the summer of last year due to a substance abuse problem on his part. While we were apart I started seeing another man only to go back to my boyfriend and try to work things out with him. I'm really skeptical that the 2nd time is a charm, I still get that gut feeling that he's still continuing to use. It only gets more complicated because I can't forget about the man that I was seeing in the summer. I'm at a lost as to what to do. While I want things to work out, I don't know if I can trust my bf again...is it possible to trust someone who betrayed you? and can I ever forget about that other man?

My interpretation of your post is that you left your boyfriend for another man exclusively because your boyfriend was addicted to drugs. Your experience with the other man didn't work out, but he is no drug user, and then you wonder whether you're doing the right thing in leaving one for the other.I have a feeling that in the end you will not be with any of the two. You won't be with your boyfriend because he will most likely go back to using drugs, if he isn't using them anyways. And you won't be with the other man because he wasn't what you want. If he had been, you'd still be with him instead of going back to a man you had left before.

If the other guy treats you a hell of a lot better, then I think you should go for him. I mean, why stay with a guy who has substand abuse problems when you can be with a good guy? Sometimes, you don't get a second chance if you don't take the first one.

If you want to , you can. You should give another person a second chance. Everyone deserves a second chance. If you are more generous , a third chance and no more.No , you cannot ever forget the other man. It will always be in your memory .You like all women have a indelible hard disk.
