Am I right to feel like this? I just dont trust him anymore,what shall i do?

If you cant get past what he has done, and no-one can blame you for that. Then the damage is done already. Your feelings cant be played like this. He had his chance and he went off and saw another woman, with the excuse he done it to get over you; which is pathetic.
If you loved someone that much you mourn for them, you dont go out and sleep with someone else and develop feelings for them that quickly. This just undermines what you had with him in the first place.
Simple truth is, if you cant trust him and you have your doubts which you do, then dont go down that road again. Someone who can forget the feelings they had for someone by sleeping with someone else so quickly, obviously was'nt on the same page as yourself.
You sound like you've had enough of all this, so do what your gut is telling you to do.

Only he will truley know when he is over this other woman. You wont know until he decides to devote his time and his mind solely to you.
What does his depression stem from?
It might be wise for him to seek professional assistance with this. If he is at all serious about the two of you then he will consider this.
I personally have never understood the excuse of seeing someone to get over the person you used to love. But everyone deals with things in their own way.
He needs to sort his head before you continue with this relationship. You can support him but you need to be sure he has eyes for you and you only.

And how will i know when he is completely over her? Im very sad over this.

Your feelings are totally valid. Why was he looking for her while he was back with you?
He might still have feelings for you, but while he is confused to what he wants I think you need to give him the distance.
He cant expect you to wait while he finds out what he wants, he should of made the decision when he got back with you.
Ask up front, who he choosing? You or her?
He obviously has feelings for her and that cant be helped but he chose to come back to you so it is up to him to get over that as quickly as possible so that he can make the most of his life with you.
Your trust cant be stretched much more than it has been already, so he needs to get over her or get over you. End of story....x

This guy is obviously confused and caught up between two women and is being ingnorant of what you might think/feel. I know it sounds easy for me to say but just give him the boot and find someone who will treat you with the love and respect you deserve. You don't have to put up with this! good luck babe x x
