Question - (24 February 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 24 February 2010)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

alright, my boyfriend and i have been together for 8 months now and he lives two states away. today i told him that i had cheated on him and i was wrong, yes. i want more than anything to take it back and that i was very sorry.

he was extremely angry but never once raised his voice. he said that he still loved me and wanted very much to be with me still.

the only downside is that he said he cant trust me and doesnt know how he will be able to. he wants to stay together but talk less while me and him figure a way to help him trust me again.

i have no idea what i can do to help him trust me. i have promised him i wouldnt and have been up all night trying to find a solution.

please if you know anyway to help him trust me agian or any suggestions it would be of much help. thank you

mere words will not do anything. it is your actions that will speak volumes. thus far you cannot blame him. you have deliberately hurt him, betrayed him. why, only you know. if you are feeling so gulity and want to regain his trust how could you sleep with another man. did you not think of the consequences. he may never get over your cheating, only time and your actions will tell. you may learn the hard way what love and trust is all about.

All you can do is continue to reassure you that you wont' do it again. And you need to listen to his suggestions too. The problem is that this is an LDR, so to work it out will be very hard. You have to be totally open with him, and just have continue to reassure him. Other than that there is little you can do unless he suggests something.
