writes: How can I get back together with my girlfriend after I cheated on her?My girlfriend of a year recently dumped me after finding out I cheated on her with someone else roughly 5 months ago. I didn't tell her because I was afraid of losing her because of a stupid act of immaturity. (I would take it back in a heartbeat if I could.) She says she has forgiven me and we still talk every day, but she doesn't know if we should get back together. Is there anything I could do to prove to her I won't make the mistake again?

 Just be a great friend. Do all the things that she fell in love with in the first place. Now is the time for growth for you. While giving her the space and time she needs also make adjustments to yourself. You don't have to tell her about them just let her see them for herself. Time now can be your friend. Be patient and don't pressure her. Just be there and always be willing to take your lumps. It will be hard but it can be done. Good Luck.

i agree with david and ariel, she needs to see that she can trust you before she can decide if she can take you back

 Just be a good friend to her and let the trust build up again. Dont pressure her into taking you back, just because she says she has forgiven you does not mean she trusts you.
She obviously still has feelings for you, but you dented her pride. Treat her well, be supportive and let her see the person you really are. She will soon regain faith in you.
