He broke up with her right away though. All of a sudden last week he tells me about all this guilt he has about it so I told him that sometimes confession can make you feel better. He agreed to it and it actually went fine and she wasn't upset, but he said he was still feeling bad. He said he realized he feels negatively towards me and that he sees me as the girl that saw someone she wanted and stopped at nothing to get it even though he had a girlfriend, he wants to shake that image of me but he can't figure out how. I want him to change how he feels and get back with me but obviously I can't say or do anything. What should I do? Should I hope that he might figure stuff out or just forget it?

He reads you like a bbok. Sadly you cannot change the 'image' of you because it is not an image is it, it is a reality. His morals too is questionable. You see you both are wrong here. Tou both cheated and got each other: in the end was it worth it. Cheaters very rarely stay with each other in the end. This is a reality. They just cannot function as a normal couple. And I think he has found this out.the basis of your relationship was wrong and he knows it. I find it strange trhat you have no guilt feeling, that you do not acknowege any wrongdoing and that you just accept the cheating as part of life. Your bf has woken up and realosed hi wrongdoing, why can't you.

well I think he is being a hypocrite because he was the one in the relationship. He was the one that cheated and you had no commitments or owed her any loyalty. He should not be throwing rocks and you should point this out to him.
