Cerberus_Raphael agony auntDoes your boyfriend tell you that you're pretty? But then, does it matter? What would looking like other girls accomplish? You need to be different, I'm pretty sure that's what your boyfriend likes otherwise he'd have gone for one of those girls who look like everyone else, right?

Read back on what you wrote. You said your boyfriend was 'AMAZING' and supportive. When you wrote that, I'm willing to bet that you didn't truly think he'd cheat on you otherwise you wouldn't have emphasized how AMAZING he was right? Enjoy your relationship, stop thinking about what everyone else thinks about you. Your boyfriend loves you, you love your boyfriend, be happy. His is the only opinion that really matters to you isn't it?

I hope that helps.
