People make mistakes. If this is still bothering you after a year of being together then you should talk to him about it. Express your feelings and concerns. If you don't feel comfortable talking to him now about your concerns do you think this will change after you're married?\n\nI'm not saying you should or shouldn't forgive him. That's up to you. I do think you should talk to him about it.

I am in love with my boyfriend, Steve. Our best friend introduced us a year ago. We started dating a momth later (after I had left my ex-husband) and we moved in together in November. I have never been sooooooooooooo happy in my whole life!! He is kind of old fashioned and treats me like a princess, or better yet a queen, like I deserve to be treated (my ex treated me like a piece of property and believed it was his right to lie, cheat, use/abuse drugs, verbally/mentally/emotionally abuse me, etc). Steve does not believe it's ok to lie, cheat, or abuse in any way--same as me. We believe that we are soul mates. We are sooooooooooooo much alike. There are only a few things that we don't have in common, just enough to keep it fun and interesting. We do plan to get married, but not sure when yet. He is going to tell his whole family of our plans for getting married at the family reunion this summer. :)\n\nAnd what's even better is his family (what ones I have met so far) have totally embraced me into their family and consider me as a part of the family already!

are you trying to judge him? don't ever ever tell him that way? asking if he's happy with your relationship? i don't think it's right, just be with him everyday, no relationship is perfect, put your trust and faith to him, and it will go smooth and easy....

be okay with who you are and where you are at in life.  If you love him then there shouldn't be a time where you aren't happy with his success because if you are going to be with him forever then his success is going to be your success.  Don't compare the two of you because it will eventually lead to being apart forever.

Hun you've only been with him for 6 months. It's a good thing that he doesn't want to rush things. It took me and my fiance a year and a half before we said the magic words "I LOVE YOU". Now we've been together for almost five years and are about to have two kids. Stick it out. It was worth it for me. Good luck and if you need someone to talk to, my email is flower_child69420@yahoo.com

You should feel special and irreplaceable, but it will take some time, are you sure you want to stay with him, ask your self is me and my b/f headed down that marriage path? if the answer is no, than why are you with him? your wasting your time, if the answer is yes, get some counseling together, and work things out, fight for your relationship (not the girls he was txt'ing) but work hard, and it will blossom, it will take some time, are you willing to put in that time?

I would just come clean and ask him..."Okay!  You are too perfect.  Tell me the truth...You're married, aren't you?"  Make sure that you are together when you ask it though, so that you can see his face and the way he reacts.  When you are, make it sound like, like you are joking around with him.  If he answers "No.", then ask, "Do you have kids then?"  Better question..."Do you WANT kids?"  Just keep it light, but gauge his reations.

Well you love him but he obviously doesn't love you enough to respect the fact that you are a woman and you have feelings instead he had to go behind your back and cheat because he couldnt be man enough to say "I need sometime for myself, my feeling about this relationship have changed.." You have to love yourself more than that. You will find someone that really cares about your feelings and necessities.. it will be rough forgetting about Mr, Cheater but you'll see how fast you will forget about him when Mr. Wonderful brings your flowers and actually cares about your needs a woman.

Stop worrying, you won't get anywhere like this. If it is going to work then it will and it sounds like your both enjoying each other so just relax.

You must listen to your heart.  Are you really in love with this man or just adoring his mature ways?  Good Luck.

Ive been with my b&#92;f for 7years now.I'm 23 now,he's 7yrs older than me.For the first 4 years our family's had issues with us being together.we moved in together only 3months into it while i was living with a girl friend.its had its up and downs but has been a great life.my advice to you would have to be,that you continue strong in the relationship that you have,don't worry to much about the negativity that continues to linger around you and your man.If he makes you happy and you know that he is all good for you,then you have nothing to worry about.wish you all the best....

I think you should totally tell him exactly how you feel. If he truely loves you then he will change the way that he is to you and if not then obviously it means that you deserve better than. trust me on this i am in this same situation so i know exactly how you feel.

Sounds to me like you are thinking right, atleast you recognize that you are indeed his "yo-yo". Honey, I hate to say this but you have GOT to move on. Show him you are noone's yo-yo and get the heck outta this relationship. Who does he think he is? You are too special and important to be treated this way. There's someone out there who will love you and treat you just the way you deserve, like a princess. I have been where you are and I'm 28 now. I've had my share of long relationships and trying to force them to work and basically living in denial. I have finally found my soul mate and I love him so very much! and he is SO good to me. He's everything I have ever dreamed of since I was little, he's my best friend! You stop wasting your time on this guy (I know it's not that easy, 3 years is a long time). But you do need to get out of this now. Show him that you are not going to sit around and always be there waiting for him. Quit making this easy for him! You can do it! So get out there and get happy, life is too short to live this way. Can you really see yourself living the rest of your life this way? What about when you have children? He isn't going to change. Move on sweetie!

Take it one day at a time.  If he is a good man, he will show you over and over again that he truly is.  Let him in a little at a time.  You'll be just fine.
