Search Results: fixing relationship

Be it over personal appearance, or feeling insecure about their partners phone habits or whereabouts, what's the best solution to fixing insecurity?
Logically you can’t make a person feel secure. You can’t fix their trust issues or give them self confidence.
But does choosing to be in a relationship mean you take some responsibility for someone else’s heart and wellbeing, meaning help to alleviate their fears?
Who should be putting in the most effort?

So I met this guy about a year ago online. Due to his job, he has been over seas for this entire year so we haven't been able to officially meet in person. We were planning to the first week of August because that's when he gets home.

And as dumb as it seems, I guess based on our feelings we felt like getting into an exclusive relationship made sense. We acted purely on emotions.. no logic lol but after thinking more about it and figuring it wouldn't be reasonable to expect faithfulness from someone you've never met, I told him if he wanted to sleep with other people it was fine.. at least until we meet and start a normal relationship

His response was "no this is 100% enough for me". Well, come to find out, he has been sleeping with other people.. nothing romantic, just sexual. But it hurts that when all I wanted was honesty, I couldn't get it. He explained that it was because he didn't want to lose or hurt me.

He's been there for me in more ways than I can count and basically became my best friend. But because of this weird situation that I'm now in, I don't know what to do. Should I give him another chance or not? He's making strong attempts at fixing this.. even changing future plans to accommodate the relationship such as relocating.
