He has a real problem with trust because 12 years ago I cheated. The other day I went to the store and he accussed me of cheating because I only came back with 4 things and I was gone he says for 3 hours. I know that this is wrong but, then again I did cheat 12 years ago. He says when he confronts me about things I get mad and that's how I was before when I was lying to him. I do get mad because I'm trying to prove to him that he is the only one I want to be with but, everytime I think I'm showing something happens and it backfires. We need help. I love him so much and I know he loves me. It's just we know the hurtful things about one another and we throw it at eachother. What can or should we do? Reply to this Question Share |

This problem sounds like it requires some professional help. Twelve years is a long time to be holding his feelings, he may have gotten used to them. I really think counselling could help here because it doesn't seem likely he'll get over it by just talking to you about it. Once that's over with, I'm sure you'll have a great relationship

He wants to adopt my 4 year old because her father wants nothing to do with her. I found out all the information on how we could do it. I thought maybe this would help and show him I want him to be with us forever. He found fault with that also. When we aren't fighting we get along and he is the only one I can open with on everything. We can sit and talk for hours. The children get along awesome and we have a good time with them. Our relationship would be fine if we could forget about our pasts.
