My boyfriend and I went on separate vacations with our friends, and he cheated on me while he was away.
I'm still sad about it. Do you think I should contact him?

Question
I am living abroad and was really into this guy. We dated for almost a year but both wanted to do our summer vacation with friends. When he got back, he told me he was with another girl. I broke up with him. Now I miss him. I want to call him or text.

Please don't do that. You made the right decision to break up with him as he doesn't respect you at al

It was just one time, but I wonder if he'd do it again. But I thought I'd live in this other country forever and we'd be together. Now I may have to go home.

I would say this, if he does it once, he will do it again

How can I know that for sure?

Maybe going home isn't too bad after all. You may even meet someone better there From my experience, people who cheat always cheat again

I really like it here though, and with Covid, it's hard to think about traveling. Has someone cheated on you?

People can only love and respect you when you treat yourself that way That's a great idea! Spend time with your friends and family, who actually care about you and your feelings

You are very mature. Anyone in that situation would feel the same.

Thank you. It was hard not to let my emotions get the best of me. I don't even know why he told me. But I guess it's good he did.

He did a good thing at least, being honest with you. However, cheating, even just once, is something I always warn people
assistant

I don't know if it was good. Maybe he was just being mean. It's nice of you to listen. Thank you for all your advice. i hope I can travel home safely now. And maybe come back in January.
