Cheating and Second chances

[Akakage]

My boyfriend and I have been dating for less than three months and he has already cheated on me..They didn't go as far as sex, and he told me everything that happened in detail (only b/c i wanted to know exactly what happened no matter how bad it hurt me) I feel it is better to know everything than to be left in the dark..After I broke up with him he begged me to take him back for seven hours straight and then some..He told me that he has never done anything like that before and that it will never happen again b/c of the pain we both felt..(him knowing that I was hurting b/c of something he did)..Even though we had been dating for such a short time I had developed such strong feelings for him, it felt like we had been together longer..I believe that he may be more serious with what we have (he even is going as far as buying me an expensive ring, like a promise ring, something he has never done for anyone else.) He knows he can't make it up to me, but he wants me to know that he is serious about this more than ever. I keep hearing everything happens for a reason, and maybe the mistake he made will help him see things in an entirely different perspective now. I gave him that second chance ( something I would've never done with anyone else) and I want to know did I do the right thing? That maybe I should'nt have b/c of possible future happenings...if anyone that has had experince with this can you please help me out?

Only time will tell whether your decision was the right option for you.

 

When considering giving someone a "second chance", I always thought it best to consider it much like a 'gamble' and first assess the risks. Anything further you are willing to sacrifice: be it your time, your feelings, your dignity, your love or your ability to trust … you must wager already prepared to pay the house what you've put up on the table without fear or residual regret.

 

If you feel you can't afford to lose more than you already have, then don't hedge that bet.

In my opinion, once a cheater, always a cheater. If he cheats once, he might cheat again. As sweet as he may be, I wouldn't trust him. Maybe you guys should take a break and see other people. I mean, you've only been together for three months, and he's already cheated on you.
