How do learn to trust him after he's cheated?

Question - (6 June 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 7 June 2010)
A female Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I am considering getting back with my ex, and giving things another shot. We got along well, but earlier on there were some major trust issues due to his behaviour that made it difficult for me to trust him out alone, partying, using the internet, etc.

He is 24, and slept with 1 other woman once, while on a trip, that I am aware of (during our relationship...cheated). Months later, he told this same girl that he loved her. He also created profiles of dating websites looking for casual sex. He had some kind of online relationship with a 17 year old, and ended up him trying to convince her to have sex with him. Thank goodness she had morals. Also, flirty, sexual emails, messages, chat logs, close pictures with women when partying, etc, etc.

He is also a huge partier-when he drinks he gets stupid. Last weekend he went streaking at a buck n doe. When I told him how stupid that made him sound and look, and that I was embarrassed for him, I was the one being completely ridiculous, because it was "all in fun."

He was very sneaky about all of the incidents with other women, I didn't find out anything until months after they had happened.

Anyway, he is insisting that he is changing-that he was afraid of commitment before, but that now he is ready. We have been broken up for 6 or 7 weeks, but still talk to and see each other fairly regularly (to talk.)

How do I get over these trust issues if I do decide to get back together with him?

SillyB agony auntYou're not married, you have no children....why make your life difficult? Have some self-respect and walk away. Why stay in a situation that makes you uncomfortable, has been painful & where there are trust issues. NO THANK YOU!

Every single problem that was there before will be there now, because he's the same. He hasn't changed at all. It takes more then 6/7 weeks for a man to change. He's telling you what you want to hear. But you can be sure this won't work out. Find a better guy.
