Loreto Hermesa month agoI’m an 18-year-old guy, and I’ve been in a relationship with my girlfriend, who’s 20, for about eight months. From the beginning, things have been a bit challenging for me. She often talked about her exes, which made me uncomfortable, so I eventually brought it up, and she agreed to stop. She would also call other guys cute, and after I expressed my feelings about that, she stopped as well. These were all small things that I had to address, but I stayed with her because I could see she was trying to improve for me. However, today I discovered something that has really shaken my trust. While going through her phone, I noticed messages from a guy who is her best friend. I knew about him, but I had never looked at their conversations before because I trusted her. It turns out they’ve been texting each other throughout our relationship, and he often compliments her and even says “I love you” to her. While she doesn’t reciprocate those feelings or accept the compliments, she never blocked him, even knowing that I would be upset if I found out about it. When I confronted her about it, she said she would block him now that I know, but it feels disingenuous since she had the chance to do it for the past eight months. Now she’s begging for my forgiveness, promising that she won’t do anything like this again. I’m left feeling hurt and unsure about what to do next.140
