I (24F) am honestly about to break up with my boyfriend for good.
My bf (28M) knows a girl (27F) and were best friends with her for years with her before we met. After we got into a relationship I felt awkward around her so I asked him to distance himself from her a little bit.
I originally thought he did but not only he lied to me about it, I also recently found out that he has cheated at least three times (doing it with the girl and asked for obscene photos via text), even a month before our third anniversary.
She confessed it to me and told me that she’s been in love with him all these years. When I confronted him, he denied it but I eventually got proof of the texts and he apologized saying that he said it was all a lie because he was afraid of losing me.
He really seems regretful and asked for another chance (he’s not talking to her anymore) but I don’t think we will work, he has lost my trust. I already told him this but he’s sure that if I give him a little bit more time everything will be okay.
I’m really trying to have hope because I really love him, but my mood is constantly changing and I’m getting tired of being this sad all the time… do you think people change?
Honestly, I don’t believe that a male and female can be best friends there is always something going on.
Do I continue to try and trust him?

- You wrote that he already cheated three times!! What change do you think is going to happen?
- Good luck but if you let him get away with cheating on you 3 times he has no reason to stop, he has cheated the whole time you have been with you he does not respect you. So please respect yourself and hold your head up high and walk out that door and go NC, plus that will drive him crazy so it’s a way for you to hurt him back without cheating or telling lies.
- Gong dai gong cb, 3 times you still consider going back. Are you a genius.
