I just have a quick question. I've been with my boyfriend for 6 months and we love each other very much. Recently, a girl he has hooked up with in the past has been trying to get back with him. He tells her no, but I guess she's just desperate.

My question is, if he had any intention of doing anything with her, he wouldn't tell me every time she contacted him and stuff, right? I mean I trust him I just would like some reassurance. Thanks!

Fatherly Advice agony auntLet's look at the one other reason that a guy would tell his Girlfriend that his ex is hitting on him.

When she finally accepts that he isn't going to accept her advances, she is going to be mad. She is going to be mad at him and she is going to be mad at you. Then she is going to try to figure out a way to hurt you both. She will call you up and tell you a whopper about what he has been doing with her.

This is why he is keeping everything above board and telling you everything she does. So when she calls you don't believe her.

he doesn't have to tell you that she contacts him, he could be faithful but still have not say anything about it. he maybe looking for 'brownie points'- like my ex wants me back, but aren't i a good boy not going with her?? see i'm really into you and i want you to know that you should appreciate me coz someone else still wants me too.

so no, i don't think he is gonna cheat at all,it sounds to me like he is wanting to create a bit more closeness between you if anything! if he had any interest in her though he would totally say nothing to you about her because he would not want to open up a conversation that could lead to you asking awkward questions

The Realist agony auntThere was a question just like this posted before but I can't remember the name of it. He is telling you everything to make sure you trust him and so you don't worry. It would be a problem if he was hiding it from you. This just shows that he cares about you and wants it to be known that he is faithful to you even in the presence of a girl throwing herself at him. It's why guys tend to tell their gf's about other girls hitting on them so that they make it known that they are faithful and aren't tempted to cheat because of these other girls.

If he was going to cheat, he'd have done it and would never have said a word. I don't think you need to worry at all.
