A female , anonymous writes:

Plz help me! My boyfriend of nine months has just split up with. He says its because he's been unhappy for a while as I have trouble trusting him. This is due to my past relationships and his background as a cheat. I love him more than anything in the world and he says he still loves me too but not as much as he used to. He also says he won't give me another chance because he's given exes chances and nothing's changed.

What can I do to make him give me a chance to prove I'm not like them? I would do anything to be with him. plz help!!!!

MummaMia25 agony auntOne of the main things for a relationship to survive is have trust....have you ever heard the saying " You can't have a relationship, without any trust!"...im afraid this is very true!

Not all men are the same and you cannot tar them all with the same brush. I understand how you feel as having been cheated on myself i know the pain and hurt it has on you but has he given you any reason to doubt him or are all these issues of trust from in your head...

i dont know what to sudjest about your ex giving you another chance...maybe write him a letter or email explaining why you have these doubts and feel the way you do...and give him time to read it over and think....i hope this helps x

tell him that if he really loves you, he should give you another chance to prove that you are different

then if he does, then trust him and even if u dont just make him feel like u trust him

dont ask questions and avoid problems n troubles with him

if it comes to me i would let him go because if he really loves you then he would do him best to help u trust him

good luck xoxo

Thanks to everyone for their help on this one however, after I met up with him he then dissapeared and refused to return my calls so I gave up. This was a couple of months ago and Ive now found someone who knows how to treat people with respect and even though we are taking things slow everything is going really well.

Ok quick update. He's now told me he may change his mind in a week or so coz he does still love me and he keeps asking me to go and meet him though he says it is just to say goodbye with a hug however I keep putting him off as I dont think I can go through that now we've split and I know I will get upset and try and beg him to take me back which could ruin everything if he is to change his mind on his own! What should I do?

Use his own logic to work for you. He won't take you back because he's tried that in the past and it didn't work, right? Well, tell him that you don't trust him to not cheat because he has in the past. Then gracefully be done with him. He doesn't treat you well. End of story.

A reader, anonymous, writes (31 July 2006):

Change takes a long time - usually a long time of being single and getting some perspective on one's past behaviour. To be blunt, there isn't some quick solution to this problem. If he's made up his mind, your recourse is either to respect that wish and

a) spend some time on self-improvement, and maybe meet up with him again at some later date or

b) try and learn from this incident and after a short break, look into dating someone else - getting a fresh start as it were.

Option b is the better choice, by the way. There is no guarantee that he will ever come around again.
