writes: My boyfriend of 6 months and I broke up for a week. He had sex with someone else while we were broken up. I broke up with him and wouldn't talk to him and when I finally talked to him after that week I realized I wanted to be with him so we got back together. I realize he didn't technically do anything wrong or cheat, and I know it was nothing more than a drunk one night stand with a random girl, but I can't get the image of them having sex out of my head! My bf understands it's hard for me and is there to help comfort me but it still hurts thinking about the man I love with someone else. Please, help me, how can I get over this?

I agree with the previous answer. 6 months is a short period of time but it can be som of the toughest months. Is when you being to develop feelings for the other person and begin thinking if you truly want to be with them. Although you guys were broken up, he decided to go and have sex with another girl and honestly i don't thi k there's an easy way to just forget about that. You need to start thinking wether this man if the guy you want to be with.

You're actually asking the wrong question.
The question you need to be asking is why, after just 6 months, did you break up for just a week before getting back together. In my opinion, 6 months is a very short time for a couple, and if you broke up so readily at that point, what will happen in a few years when the break up actually means a lot more.
You need to think very carefully as to whether you want to be with this man, because at 6 months it shouldn't be going wrong so quickly and easily. Before anything else, really think about what caused the break-up, and whether that can be fixed. Because that is your problem - not the fact he slept with someone else
