My boyfriend of 3 years cheated on me and lied about the details. He says he's sorry and that he's realized that I'm the one he wants to be with and will never do it again, etc., etc., blah blah blah. I have two choices, give him a second chance or dump him. If I stay with him, what are some specific things that should be done to earn my trust again? We've all heard the saying, "Trust takes time." Yes, that's true, but there's so much more to it than time. I can just sit there day after day and pretend it never happened, and with time, trust him. What are specific things he should do to get that trust back? He sincerely wants it but says he doesn't know how to prove he's trustworthy. And trust is so hard to prove anyway. I can just assume he's being honorable when really I can't be 100% sure right? Can you even get trust back, even after your partner has hurt you tremendously? I want us to work, and I think he does too. Thanks for any advice you can give me.
