Well maybe you need to take a hard look at why you're having trouble trusting him. Has he done something to damage your trust? Have you been cheated on before, and you're just holding onto past hurts, fearing it will happen again? Once you can pinpoint where you're fears are coming from, you'll be able to put them into perspective. If he's violated your trust in this relationship, it will just take time for you to begin to trust him again. And that's only if the behavior doesn't continue cropping up. On the other hand, if it's based on past relationship, you just have to keep telling yourself that he's different and this takes a concentrated effort to mind-control yourself so you can relax. Don't automatically lump him into the same category as other men who cheated on you before. He may be nothing like that. But you will run the risk of ruining the relationship if you don't get control over your fears and stop nagging him. I wish you the best.
