Now he won't trust me and says it will be a while before he does. We work together, and if I say one word to another guy, he gets upset. He doesn't believe me when I say I am truthful to him and I tell him everything. We end up fighting because he doesn't believe anything I say. And when we do fight, he just gets mad because I say opposite of him, because he doesnt understand that I am telling the truth. I dont hang out with anyone but him. I love him a lot and care about him but I just need him to trust me, like I trust him.HOw do I get my boyfriend to believe me and trust me? Reply to this Question Share |

It sounds like there is nothing you can do to MAKE him trust you. He has to be open to the idea of it and he's not. He's still too hurt to trust any girlfriend and until he agrees to try and trust you then you are stuck.
Tell him that he has to accept you are not his ex, and that he has to try and trust you. You need to be able to speak to people at work. Other wise it will affect your job.
If he's not willing to try then you may have to split up with him until he can sort his head out. He really does not sound like he's ready to be in a relationship yet.
Good Luck!! xx
