How do I trust again?
My husband was having a flirty little thing with my ex best friend over text messages. It only went on one day, while I was sick in bed and he was supposed to be taking care of our 2 year old son. I honestly beleive that it would not have gone any further, and my husband feels horrible and truly regrets it, but how do I trust again?
I found out because he forgot to delete one from him to her that said "if i am making you uncomfortable I can stop" and I know it only went on for one day because he had our cell provider send us a printout of all texts for the last 2 months, because, yeah, I had a hard time beleiving it was just that one day, too. And it wasn't them just seeing how the other was doing. It was much more graphic than that. I am not one of those crazy jealous people. This situation was beyond the realm of just a wink or little flirt.

You let go of any fear you have. Trust comes from having faith and faith comes from your strength of character. How did you find out about it? did he tell you about what? I mean if he owned up to it...that right there should give you some sense that it is safe to let go and allow yourself the freedom to trust him again.

Get over it?
Flirty text is a whoop te do with all of the world's problems happening right now.
Ask yourself this. If someone was pointing a gun at you, do you think he'd step in to help, or cower in fear? If he'd sacrifice his life to save you, you really shouldn't have trust issues.
Of all the things you could get worked up about in the past 3 weeks, text messages that didn't go anywhere should be the last thing on the list.
Are you gonna start raging at him if he looks in the general direction of another woman? How about if he talks to another woman? When do you draw the line at acceptable and not acceptable? Are the rules you have in place for him rules you also live by? I hope you're not one of those women who think it's okay for married women to flirt with men but not the other way around.

First and foremost, it was a one day thing through text messages. I understand that a little bit of trust has been compromised, but this should not be something that is going to ruin your relationship. If you are really having trouble getting over the fact that he went behind your back and talked to your ex best friend, ask him why he did? Is there something missing in your relationship that he was seeking to get from her? Or was it just something simple like finding out how she was doing and what she's been up to?

With all that I have gone through being betrayed by guys this is my advice.. I would never trust again. He is your husband, you two are suppose to be together until death. For goodness sakes you guys have a baby together. If he truly was commited and loved you he would have never texted your ex friend in the 1st place.
I thought I could trust anything my ex boyfriend said. He would claim he was religious and swear to god and on his mother and families lives on top of it. But I would find out in the end that he had cheated and gone behind my back to hit on random girls.. even on myspace. AND ask them out on dates. He would give his cell number out to random girls on myspace that he had never met. Claim that he was drunk and doesnt remember and that he told the girl sorry.
I hacked onto his myspace and found that he continued talking to her and callin her 'very attractive' and still wanting to go on a date. He would be chatting with her while on the phone with me. He had betrayed me over the year we had been together, who knows what else he had done. sick.
I dumped his A$$! Once a liar/cheater alway a liar/cheater.
well thats my story, there are others with different exes. but this was the most recent one. hope my rambling helped. ;)

What's to trust?
Everyone with a pulse flirts. Were they heading to Mexico? No.
My advise, to you is stop watching "As the stomach turns" on tv, and get on with life. Question, Has anyone ever looked at you, and winked? And then have you given them a little smile because the look made you feel good. We all do it. A little bit of flirting is normal.
It's not "how can you trust again" It's how long can you get away with holding this over his head.
To make a long story short, GROW UP.

What makes you think it only went on for that one day?
It doesn't just happen in one day, think about it!. Also what kind of husband flirts with someone else while your sick in bed? You husband probably feels horrible because you caught him out. Sorry!

The reply is for your middle. How you'll be able to believe a individual who has damaged you believe over and over again and harm you plenty. Now in the event you once more believe him it is going to be your blunder mistake and you are going to no longer be equipped to forgive you via out your lifestyles. Because, you cannot desire reliability from that individual any further. Your additional believe in him will harm you to that quantity, that you're going to no longer be equipped to believe anyone else in long term Please whip out each and every factor you've for your brain in his remembrances and put out of your mind him for the complete lifestyles. One factor I need to inform you that, this individual does no longer deserve a GIRL LIKE YOU. Never in his lifestyles. Leave him immediately and brake off all family members. If in long term he desire to go back to you are saying him Good bye.
