Getting trust back
kaylaa, 23, from canada asks:
How do I make my boyfriend trust me again after I cheated on him?
VictorM's advice:
By finding a new boyfriend and not making the same mistake again.
But if you want to try with this guy, your best course of action is to forge ahead without talking any more about the past. I assume you already apologized and promised it would never happen again. If you continue to let him beat you over the head with it, he will, and the topic will stay fresh in your lives. That's not a good thing. So, stop talking about it! If he brings it up, tell him you already apologized, you already admitted you made a mistake, you have learned from it, and you just want to move on with your life with a fresh start. This is impossible if he keeps bringing it up. Tell him you're done talking about it. Be assertive!
Cheating is a sign of weakness. He wants to see strength in you -- show it by starting with him.
