Make sure that they know it was a mistake when you thought he was cheating, and tell them that you'll make sure he treats you right. You could come to a deal with them that you invite him round for dinner (as long as they are pleasant towards him) so they can get a better idea of the person he is now.

 ive been in this posistion several times with a few partners and it was quite excruciating.it really hurts because you feel like you family should be there no matter what.i have realised to keep quiet now and not tell my family most of whats going on.only true friends will be there for you sometimes in these hard situations.it doesnt sound like your ex was that bad to me.i think you should ask them how they would feel and be honest if you can.obviously if you go out with him they are going to find out anyway!face it now and be brave.good luck.

uganut86 is verified as being by the original poster of the question He is the first guy I ever really dated and I can't seem to get him off my mind what is the best way for us to go about dealing with my parents. We broke up because I thought he was cheating but he wasn't and I told my parents he was. My parents think that I am better off without him and that I will get over him in time. I am so confused I don't know what they are going to think I just want to give him a chance because he has changed this time.

my advice and opinion, i would never let my family be disrespected. if that guy couldn't respect your family back then, whats to say he will now? not worthit honey. i suggest you get rid-easier said than done-i know, but it'll be a wise decision. Men dont change in six months.

uganut86 is verified as being by the original poster of the questionWe were dating in college and I graduated and he stayed. I had trust issues and was always accusing him of cheating. I know that he had fellings for another girl when we broke up but later learned they were not seeing each other.
