my boyfriend cheated on me when i was pregnant i stayed with him i probably felt vunerable , 13 years on and 2 kids i cannot trust i go through his phone always imagine him with someone else he has shattered my confidence my self esteem my trust it has taken over my life for 13 years now i have left him because he has changed and i suppose i cant be wondering if he will cheat again. but i still feel sick if i imagine him moving on with someone else probably still love him but he is not a good person for me to be with he doesnt make me feel secure. my question is how do i trust again how do i move on and trust a new partner.

A female reader, aunt honesty Ireland +, writes (24 November 2011):

aunt honesty agony auntYou put up with his behaviour for a long time, you stayed even though you where not happy, this shows that you have very low self esteem and you just settled for this relationship because you felt you would not be able to do any better. You need to take some time out for yourself now and build friendships and learn to trust people that way for a start. give yourself some time before you look to date again. Go out with your friends and do things that make you feel good and will build your confidence. Once you have learned to trust someone as a friend it can make it a little easier to trust someone in a relationship. If you feel you cannot do this by yourself then go and talk to a therapist about your issues and they may be able to help you. Good luck.
