Question - (5 May 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 5 May 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Iv been with my boyfriend a little over a week now, and i still dont know if i can trust him. I have heard about his past relatioships and flings from friends of mine, but they are only going by what they have been told by other people. He has told me he's slept with 11 people, and a few other things from his past that he regrets and im glad hes being honest, but i cant help but feel he's keeping things from me? or maybe just telling me so that i believe he's being completley open with me? i cant tell.

Another thing that sets alarm bells ringing is he tells me that he loves me, and he barley knows me. We met at a party 3 weeks ago. When i confrnt him about the 'love' thing, he insists he loves me, and would never do anything to hurt me, or walk away, or cheat. It sounds genuine, completley genuine, but theres still that doubt in my mind and i fear he's only saying these things to get to me, and try and rush the relationship. I have said to him, i dont want to rush, and want to wait (As i am a virgin) and he has told me, he wants to wait for me too, and he'll wait as long as it takes.

I know nothing lasts forever, and something bad is bound to happen, but is there any way to know if he is genuine about his feelings, or do i just have to wait and see how it all unfolds? What do you think about the situation?

Sorry if it doesnt make much sense, my heads all over the place at the moment. Thanks for yor help x

katusha91 agony auntYou've been dating for a week. People who are together for years are never even sure sometimes. Just take it one day at a time. There's no need to rush and make sure he's totally in love with you. Take your time and get to know each other and then decide what you think of him.
