I too have this problem but i tryto not let it over come me. i got it from when i was best friends with a girl who cheated on her boyfriend who was one of my friends. and i was paranoid when i was going out with her and it has stuck to me. I tell myself that they arent and that if they didnt love me they wouldnt be with me it really helps your confidence,, if he gets vey annoyed by it then he isnt cheating he is genuinely upset.

It's probably not a good idea to be in a relationship if you have big issues relating to your past; relationships are for when such issues arn't such a problem; a time when you are more focused on the future, not on the past.
You can overcome your past wounds with time, it is in time that you can rationalise things that have happened in your past, and through this rationalisation, it makes you more clear and certain about yourself; it is only then you are truely ready to become commited with someone else.
