writes: Hey everyone!I recently began a relationship with someone. My last relationship involved a lot of deceit on his part, and from that I find trusting people difficult. I recently discovered my boyfriend cheated on his last girlfriend. Is that something I should worry about? It seems to me that if he's capable of cheating, he could easily do it again. I fall for people easily and I'm worried if I begin to like him more, it will be more hurtful if he does cheat on me. Should I just take a chance and hope he doesnt cheat on me? I've tried to explain how I'm feeling but I'm finding it difficult to put into words without sounding like a crazy controlling girlfriend! Any advice is appreciated :) Reply to this Question Share |

Cheating is never right!However, I can tell you that I personally did cheat on an ex in the past. I didn't have a good reason for it, and I regret it a lot.I am now married, and have been with this person for 4+ years. I have never even CONSIDERED cheating. So, I can tell you from experience, "once a cheater, always a cheater" is not ALWAYS true.Good luck!

Past behaviour will often be an indicator for future behaviour. For me personally, I wouldn't get close to him. Because really, what possible reason/excuse could there have been for his cheating on a girlfriend? It's not something that happens by accident. You could take the chance, but I wouldn't until you've had a conversation about your concerns.
