Me and my boyfriend of 7 years have been going at it a lot lately, mostly about him talking to other females. He is very flirtatious and will give or take a phone number from anyone. He also lies a lot. So i kicked him out everyday for a month I finally drew the line and told him by Friday he had to leave. He left but didn't take anything. He came over almost every day to see our kids and take a bath then I started letting him sleep over basically he never left! My hopes of breaking up and him leaving were for him to appreciate me and realize how important our family is to him. I started to see improvement he started spending more time with me and our kids and he would call me and answered the phone when I would call he'd even text me back. He would tell me daily how much he loved me and wanted to make things work and that he wanted to come home permanently I told him he had to stay consistent and keep showing me he wanted the relationship he did here and there but he never really gave it his all this has been going on for 3 weeks so a few days ago I find a few hair strands in his beard I question him and he tells me if he were doing anything with anyone besides me he would tell me so me being skeptical I check his online phone records and confront him I even had a conversation with the female in front of him basically he and she have been having a fling for a month and they have had unprotected sex at least once I have also have had unprotected sex with him 4 days before I found out and he has not been in contact with her and she has contacted me to apologize because he told her he had no contact with me at all he swears he will be a better man but he has promised in the past to change his cheating lying ways he's even volunteered to go to counseling and church so he can be a better spouse and father I don't know what to think I love him so much but having unprotected sex is so low down and dirty especially when you don't know the person from a hole in the wall

Me and my former boyfriend had been together for one year and three months. He's my first love, best friend, Everything. I never expected to fall in love with him. He changed a lot for me, picked up his act. had never left me hanging. he was always there for me, supported me. he healed me. and i healed him. I felt positive that it was a forever relationship.
However three days ago we got into an argument. we had been fighting a lot the past month.
He came over to my home, and we ended up in a dumb argument. however this time , he complained about how I was flicking at his arm. Because of how he was yelling at me. I - with an attitude- said "i should have slapped you in the face". In the past, he always told me. If he were to disrespect me or accidentally make me feel threaten. To slap him.
He accused that I would never do it. I was sitting and he was leaning down over me. I had enough of his anger over something so small and slapped him. However, moment, seconds later. He slapped me back. I didn't look at him. But yelled at the top of my lungs to get out.
he was escorted out by my brother. and I told my family what happened.
They said to use this time as my break, since I felt that I have been needing one. My "boyfriend" Has apologized, cried, pleaded and admitted that he was wrong, and has said he will start therapy. He said he will do what he can to prove and win me back,. that our relationship is worth more then two slaps.
Its safe for me to say that we were both wrong to hit each other. I will be getting counseling myself.
He's a really sweet guy, the only guy to have changed for me and for the better. but this is a big no no.
Should I wait and Take him back after we get help? Or should I leave?
I still love him deeply, He needs a supporter. This was the first wrong thing he's done to me. Is there any hope for "US"?
