A male United States age 30-35, *ana writes:

For five months I had been seeing a girl only to find out from a mutual friend that she had a boyfriend the entire time, which she hid from me.

Because of this my confidence with girls has been hurt greatly. I know I need to meet some one new, but I have no confidence anymore.

How can I recover from this and gain my confidence back?

Isabella1974 agony auntHi Cana,

Sorry to hear you are feeling like this. First of all just want to ask, this mutual friend of yours, are you sure that this friend is a reliable source when they say, she has been seeing someone else, the only reason i ask this is sometimes i see this happening to people and it turns out that the mutual friend is jealous.

If she has beening seeing someone else behind your back then sweetheart and i know this can knock your confidence, but you can hold your head up high knowing that at least you were honest and truthful and people can see her for what she is, a dishonest and hurtful person. She is the one that needs to be ashamed of herself for stringing to guys along, not only that, she needs to be careful as she will get a reputation for herself.

Some girls can be cruel and dont let her distroy your confidence. You will get over this, you have done nothing wrong and people will see this.

Give yourself time before you meet someone new, make friends with girls first, see what type of character they have and get to know them well. Not all girls are like your ex, so please down dwell on this to much. You will meet someone who truly deserves you in time. Move on and hold your head up high.

Hope this helps and take care xx
