Search Results: how do you learn to trust

So, my boyfriend of almost 2 years has been coming over to my house for a really long time, probably about 5 months after we started dating? (I'm 16, he's 15 - just a few months apart if that matters). He at first started coming over once every other week but recently he's been coming over about 2-3 days a week (he's started coming to church w/ me & my mom: we pick him up Sunday mornings & his parents come get him around 4, & on Wednesdays he rides the bus home with me & we chill until about 5-6 for church & then drop him home). Every other Saturday he comes over about 1:30-6. Here's where the problem comes in.

First, to let you know, I am a great child. Not a problem child. I get good grades at school, & have around a 3.7-4.0 GPA, maintaining a 100 in class for months now. I'm a reserved person, introvert. I go absolutely nowhere (i live in a tiny town anyways, there's nowhere to go). You get the point. Anywho, whenever my boyfriend comes over, we stay in the den (we're not allowed to be in my room). We normally lay down on the couch & watch tv/Netflix/YT, sleep, talk, kiss, cuddle (cmon, we're dating), & just have a fun time. When we lay down on the couch, we typically have covers on us. My house loves to stay cold, & it is still the winter time. Long story short, my mother has something against us cuddling in the covers, & it's become more recently & frequent that she tells me this. If she's afraid that were going to have sex, she needs to relax. For one, I have no interest in doing that right now (i actually stayed after school at tutoring to both do schoolwork & look up career options). Even if I were to want that right now, I have a form of protection (birth control - shot). I got that recently & maybe that's a leading reason she's being so uptight. I'm growing up, she has to learn to give me either some space, trust, or some room to let me make a mistake.

Have you cheated on someone and the relationship was repaired? Did someone cheat on you and you decided to walk away, but regretted it later? Cheating is such a touchy subject and a lot of people seem to be on one side or the other, share your stories and what you've learned about relationships and yourself!

My husband and I have been married for two months. I cheated on him about 2 years ago in the early days, and after we talked and I tried leaving him because I knew he never really would forgive me, we decided to stay together and work through it, and he surprised me with a marriage proposal this past summer. We had talked about it, but I didn't know if he was ready. Well, 2 months later almost every time we drink and party and hang out, he constantly brings up divorce and says he's unhappy and depressed, and doesn't really work on our relationship. I've done everything I can to show him I want to build trust and that it's never going to happen again, but I feel it's not working. He will say he loves me and say he wants to be with me forever, and I understand this doesn't go away in a day but he's also running my emotions all over the place. He has agreed to go to counseling, and I hope it helps. Some of the issues behind my actions were because of things he was doing and the majority was just selfishness and emotional shut down on my end.
