Am I right to break up with my boyfriend because of his promiscuous past?

Question - (21 September 2006) 2 Answers - (Newest, 22 September 2006)
A female United Kingdom, anonymous writes:

I want to break up with my boyfriend, as I cannot get over his promiscuous past. However, I'm scared to do it, as I've had a boyfriend constantly from being 16 (I've been with my current boyfriend for just over a year, I'm now 20) and I don't know what it will be like to be single. I have a great family and friends but I like the security of being somebody's number 1 and can't imagine having nothing to do or no one to see at night.

He's a really lovely guy, and I'm also scared I won't meet anyone as nice as him in the future and I may wish I'd stuck with him. Is his past a silly reason to break up with him, or am I right to make the break? Do you really only get one chance at a nice guy in your life, if I let him go, am I doomed? If I do break away, how can I sort my life out and get used to being single? Help!

ButterflyonFire agony auntI've been in your shoes before. I was afraid of being alone, I was with someone that I thought I loved and wanted to marry, but inside I knew he wasn't the one for me and I wanted out. Being alone can suck, but you know what? There are so many guys out there!! When your single you can have the fun of going out and flirting with who ever you want without guilt.

And there are way more than just one nice guy out there. I know alot of them are jerks, but trust me.. there are so many sweet guys out there that don't have anyone.

And if this one isn't your soulmate, I garentee that you'll meet him exactly when your supposed to and he'll exceed everything that you ever thought he would. =)

So if you want to be single for awhile go for it. If you haven't been single for 4 years except short periods I doubt you will have a hard time finding someone when your ready to. Good luck hun!

Toria agony auntIf you want to be with him don't break up with him because of his past as you will regret it, if you don't want to be with him then you can't stay with him just because your scared of being alone or not finding someone else as that isn't fair on either of you, you need to work out if you want to be with him or not and go from there. He may be a nice guy and treat you right but is he the right guy? Do you really still want to be with him because I've always believed you can't just be with someone because they are nice and treat you right as you could be missing out on the right one.
