If he was bored with the relationship how is it even possible to get the "spark" back the second time around? I'm sorry but he is buttering you up, don't talk to him again. Move on and find a guy who will NEVER cheat on you and then sugarcoat it.

Dont ignore him. Tell him he hurt you badly and honestly right now if he wants to work things out with you then he needs to build trust at a friendship level before anything else. If you cut off all communication he may move on.

I don't mean to sound harsh because I have been cheated on and honey oh I know how much it hurts... But this guy didn't just make one mistake, he took her out twice and he let her suck him off? Yeah boredom so isn't an excuse for cheating on someone, if you love them you try your best to make it work not go and date someone else and have sexual contact with them. This guy is so not worth another second of your time, he should learn his lesson the hard way, never take him back. I know you love him now, but in a few years time you'll thank me because a leopard never changes it's spots especially cheating ones. You're still so young, get your glad-rags on and find someone who loves you for exactly who you are and not someone who makes up lame excuses for cheating on you. All the best in your future :)

hi, what your boyfriend did to you can affect your confidence ... everything ! people do make mistakes but you need to make sure NOTHING happens like that again. I would suggest telling him you need space tell him your hurt, exactly how you feel ! when you want to take him back, say " one more time and anything happens like that again i will not come back, i dont want to be upset again !" make it very very clear because you dont want to seem like a pushover. Id deffo tell him to cut all contact with her because this will only make the situation worse. remember he obviously loves you because he said it started to feel weird so that just proves that he really does love you. atleast he now knows he was being selfish. everyones only human and believe me if you make a point and tell him the rules he wont ever do anything like that ever again.Good luck with your future and your relationship x
