Sounds like things were going really well at first and started falling apart, it happens. But paranoia of someone cheating yes ive felt the same way before. Even when I thought it was going on at times, turned out that I was wrong. Trust is a big thing in a relationship, with no trust theres not much a relationship, from feeling stress to paranoia of things going on. Try to talk to him tell him how you feel.

If every couple split up after the infatuation period, no one would get married.
Whenever you feel fear, anger or shame and you get reactive, always remember your relationship to him is more important than being right. You can feel connected even when you disagree on something. Let down your pride, be the first one to say sorry even neither one of you did anything wrong. The infatuation needs a chemical called dopmaine or something. For a longer lasting bond you need a stronger, reliable chemical. Hugging, whispering something in his ear and appreciating him help you produce endorphins. It doesn't mean that passionate chemical is no longer there. It's just that you need more than just passion in order for the relationship to survive.

I think the problem between the two of you is that you are too alike. I know it may sound weird but people who are too alike seem to fight all the time. I think that if you truely trust him and he truely trusts you then the paranoia should stop once both of you are 100% certain that there will be no cheating involved.
You should both sit down and discuss where ''ye'' stand with eachother. If you both talk it out then maybe you and him could fix the problems and be as happy as possible.
Best of luck,

Then you seem to have let insecurities and jealousies take over. Look, there are no guarantees, you may start out together and then one of you may have an affair. yes, ok. But this is not definite. But you must not base your relationship on an event which may or may not happen. And a possible bad event does not negate the good things that happened before. Live for the positive now and definite, not the negative and maybe future.
It is likely that neither of you ever cheat. Talk to him.
