That is up to you to judge if you trust that other person or not. If you have trust issues then work on your issues.

Go no farther than what you said in the first 5 words. "how do you trust someone..."
Did you think there would be a "letter of honorable intentions" in his sock and he would whip it out every time you were feeling doubt.
He isn't so "scot free" of blame in this either. Trust come from learning each other's self-honor, self-respect, self-worth, and the set of morals they live by. I don't mean they have to sit down and write up a letter of proclamation for all to see. That wouldn't work because ... "ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS"
So, how do you trust him? As far as his last girl friend. How did he break with her? Was he faithful to her to the end? Did he tell her straight up, no games? I'd say trust him.
What has he seen you do in the past that earns his trust?
Isn't it about time to sit down and set out some rules? If you're gonna break with him, tell him first, before telling your friends. Tell him you have issues with him and what you expected and why.
Its OK to go from one to another. Let them know in the begining that you are looking for someone. Tell them what that person is and does. Never make it carved in stone, cause, compromising teaches both of you what is important in your life and you find out what you can live with and what you can't. Forget about the blame game; no one has to be to blame. But, you both have to have both eys open to the truth and honesty.
That's how GREAT Marriages happen, and soul-mates find each other.
When Grandpa and Grandma died, they had lived together, happily married for 66 years. In that time, she had had one affair. She said she did it because she thought he had done it. I asked him why he didn't break up and divorce her. What he said, amaized me and set me back to rethink about all the important decisions I've made about bad lovers.
He said, "We're all human and we make mistakes. Even when we think we know what has happened, we don't. I'm to blame for leaving her in a state where she thought I had cheated on her. I'm to blame for putting her in that position. She just reacted to what I did." Grandma heard and said to me, "The first time I heard him say that, it touched me right here. Today, its getting on my nerves." Grandpa laughed and got up and got the paper. Grandma looked at him leave and said, "I still love that man, but sometimes he can be such a pain."

People come and go in our lives. You can cherish the relationship while it lasts, and accept it if does not work out.
