so my boyfriend cheated on I found out bcause I checked his phone and saw messages with his best friend. They were sending each other Instagram posts of OF girls which like whatever. But then they were sending each other Instagram stories of their friends showing everything and that bothered me. What actually broke my heart was his best friend hyping him up to message his ex because of temptation. He even deleted the convo on Instagram.
I don't even know what to do. I wanna stay with him but I know that whole once a cheater always a cheater thing. He's a good dude but his friends low-key make him trash. I talked to his mom and we decided if he wants to be with me again we have rules now no alcohol no more talking to that friend block his friend and that girl and I get to check his phone and have his passwords. This is my first time dealing with this and I'm clueless. Any advice or experiences with this kind of stuff? He said he's fine with the new rules we're gonna start going to mass and his parents are gonna talk to him. HELP

Trust is the foundation of any relationship. If you don't have trust, you don't have shit. Do you really want to live your life wondering and not trusting him?! You deserve better!

It’s good that you’ve set boundaries but make sure he’s genuinely committed to changing and not just agreeing to avoid conflict.

You're a queen sis. If he doesn't see that then he's def not the one for you. Go find someone better you got this.

I mean... if you're being real with yourself these rules aren't gonna do anything. How's his mom gonna make him behave? If he doesn't wanna be better he won't be. And I don't think that's gonna change rn. Sucks but you can't force anyone to change. All you're doing right now is tryna control his life.

This sounds so tough. If he’s willing to follow the rules and put in the effort maybe it’s worth giving him a chance.

It’s great that you’ve set rules but remember trust takes time to rebuild.

This is such a hard situation. If you feel like he’s worth it give it a shot but don’t ignore any red flags.
