He Told Me He Cheated On Me.


Submitted by: Taja

Q - Dear Annabelle,
My boyfriend of a month recently told me that one night after we went out, he went to a party, got totally trashed and ended up making out with a girl. He doesn't even know the girl's name. He told me that he was really, truly, deeply sorry and he understands how mad I am at him, (he himself had been cheated on in his past relationship). He said he doesn't want us to end because he cares about me so much. I know this because he was in one of the crappiest moods I've ever seen him in. I've waited 3 years to go out with him (we were friends beforehand)....what do you think I should do now?

A - Dear Taja,

Well, what you Îdo nowâ depends on how you feel about dating a guy who drinks and has a good chance of becoming an alcoholic. This is a very serious issue. Is this the person your parentâs raised you to be? Your job is not to Îfixâ guys who have no more self respect than this fellow does. Remember, your friends are a REFLECTION of who YOU are. If this fellow Îcares about you so muchâ he will act and behave in such a manner that he will neither shame you, nor himself, nor his family by his behavior. Keep this in mind when next youâre deciding whom to allow into your life.
