I have been in a relationship for about 15 months(off and on). My friends and my roommate give me a hard time for sticking around in a relationship,where I would even admit that,there is a lack of trust. He has cheated on me twice and most recently,he told me he had been hanging out with some other girl and I broke it off with him. But for some reason,I can't stop thinking about him and I still want to be with him. I say it's because I love him and I think we've been together for too long to just let this slip away. My roommate,she's a Psychiatry major says, that 15 months, technically in a relationship is not very long. There are people that have been together 5 or 6 years and my relationship is a baby relationship. If he cheated on me within the first 6 months or so of it,then something must be wrong. I find it SOO hard to move on when we break up(we are broken up again at this moment). My friends make fun of us,saying,"are they on or off this week"? or "how long are they going to be together now"?
It's our emotions they are making fun of but again.I think,how could they not make fun of us? I can go on forever about us but.I will cut this short for now.
Your wants and your needs in this case are two different things. Your wants are to stay with him and your needs are to leave him. If you stay with him, there's a small chance things will work out, but the longer you stay together, the more trouble and hurt it will be if and when it does end. If you end it now, there's a 90% chance you're doing yourself a favor.
Don't stay with men who cheat on you, especially not twice.
I have a friend who's in an on and off relationship. Everybody around knows they're not good for each other. They fight all the time, and it's very unhealthy.
your relationship doesn't sound like a very healthy relationship either. ESPECIALLY if he cheated on you. Sometimes, outsiders see what you don't see in a relationship. I believe that it is wise to listen to your friends at this time. They see it it's making you unhappy. Break ups happen for reasons. There's no need to trying it again if it's going to end up in same result. He has already cheated on you twice. It is nerve easy ending a relationship. But you need to let this one go. Erase his number ignore his phone calls. Go out and have fun with your friends. They will be there for you. Good luck!
With no intentions of hurting you I feel that having a on - &- off relationship is stupid why because it causes lots of pain 4-u & make other talk sh*t, as you say there u'r emotions get hurt so take some time fore u'r self & think things carefully , because maybe just maybe it's not meant to be!
Me and my boyfriend have been going out for a year and 5 months now so about 17 months and we broke up so many times and got back together also. So I totally understand that you really still do love him but sweety, he cheated on you twice? I'm sure he doesn't like you as much as you like him. As much as you liked to believe, he ain't good for you. Your probably convincing yourself he does, but reality is, he is a SLUT.
I have to agree with your friends and olwiggy. You deserve more than this. Cheating once MIGHT be forgivable depending on the circumstances, but TWICE? And sounds like he was fixing to do it again?! Why, why, WHY would you stay. I know it's hard when you love someone but fighting and breaking up all the time can't possible be fun! It's natural to still think about someone when you break up, especially when there are strong feelings and/or you have been together a long time. Although I agree that 15 months is not all that long. But long enough to make it weird/difficult to be apart.
Why do you keep getting together again? Is it you that keeps coming back? Or is it him that asks for another chance? If it's you then you really need to just get a grip and let him go. Do whatever you need to, whatever works for you, but NOT HIM. Don't be calling, writing, seeing, or anything else. Surround yourself with your friends. Go out with them as much as possible to keep you busy and your mind off of him. Avoid things that you know will make you think of him and when you think of him out of nowhere, try to let it go or remind yourself of all the reasons you are NOT together instead of all the things you miss.
If it is him asking for another chance then it's harder. But taking him back so easily every time clearly isn't teaching him any lessons. At this point I think he knows he can get away with anything and you will eventually take him back. He doesn't seem to care and you need to move on.
You deserve much better than this "relationship". You should never put up with someone cheating on you. That would have ended things immediately for me. It sounds like you could do so much better. I also think that if you're having doubts you should probably move on. The perfect guy for you is out there somewhere, I don't think its this one.
So my boyfriend and I are broken up. He has been cheated on four times, and we have talked about marriage, but nothing too serious. We have been...

Describe your ideal first date; Where do you go? What do you wear? How does the date end?
Well I would wear a cute tank top under a fancy shirt & maybe some jeans or cute shorts..depends..umm.i would like 2 go 2 a nice place to eat.(not that I'm one of those girls that's really high class)But after we go eat,It would be nice 2 go somewhere like the park at night 2 look at the stars and talk when the date was over he could walk me to my door and kiss me goodnight. (the beach is double)
Afterwards..what will your date know about you?
That I am honest & I am very sensitive. I love to sing & wrestle..my dream is to become a WWE Diva and I care about my friends & family..I'm very blunt and say whats on my mind....
I have read, quite a few times on here, about wanting to find true love at such a young age (or feeling someone had met 'the one' and thus didn't want the relationship to end despite the fact...
The tokens of love that woman crave include flowers, chocolate and framed pictures of the two of you walking on the beach (or some similar romantic, albeit ridiculous, pose). "Aww, you remembered!"...
