I'm dating someone who has been cheated on. What should I do?

Keep honest with them. Be sweet and caring to them and depending on the number of times they've been cheated on, be ready to prove to them and their wounded jealousy that they're all that's on your mind. If you end up having to break up with them, Wait before you get with anyone else, so that they know they really mattered to you. Most of all, Don't give them a reason to think you want someone else. Kiss them in front of the person they're jealous of and think you're into, Show any evidence of having turned someone down for a date or anything. Obviously the less times they've been cheated on the less you have to do, but each thing you do to reassure them eases their fear a bit, if they're afraid of it, Or if they've been cheated on so many times they expect it, it gets them closer and closer to believing that you care about them. The best answer is just to not cheat on them too. Don't become just another person to cheat on them. And make it clear that you have no intent to be.

That's a handle-with-care situation. Being cheated on leaves behind a lots of trust issues. It might affect your relationship. You need to earn their trust. Earn. Don't ever lie or be dishonest with them. In the initial phase, it might be hard to earn it, however, things will get better once you do. If you don't like something, just say so. Being lied to hurts more than anything. Even more so, when the other person is understanding or trying their best to be understanding, which they will try their best to be in this case. Moreover, being cheated on leaves self esteem issues. Try to make them feel better about themselves. Try to compliment them once in a while( but do no over do it, it may come off as being dishonest/flattering), spend time with them, try to know them gradually. They may have their doubts about things, but don't take it to heart. Give them their space and time. Don't rush into things, take time yourself as well. They may be a little on edge due to their previous experience. Try not to get disheartened by that. It may take time but once you have ensured that you are safe for them, trustworthy and someone they can lean on, they may provide you with such warmth, love and care which you may have never experienced.

That's a really difficult question. I've experienced exactly the same situation and I have to say it's quiet hard to deal with it. It's really important to show compassion and understanding. Try to imagine you are walking in his/her shoes and how you'd try to cope with it. Think about all the emotions you have to manage and of course the pain he/she went through. Maybe this will help you getting along with it,

Just make sure to reassure them that you're not going to follow in the footsteps of their previous partner. Reassure them often that you love them and try not to get too frustrated if they are paranoid at first x Don't sacrifice your happiness for them, but just be gentle with them

Do not do anything to loose their trust, and know that it may take a while to gain it. Ultimately it is their responsiblity to heal rom the wounds of a past partner and try not to project past issues on to new relationship.

In this case, this person might have trust issues. It's important to respect the possible emotional trauma that this person has experienced. You might see your partner being a little insecure and it's important to establish a healthy dynamic between the two of you. I've heard of certain situations where such a person might ask you to do things you might not be comfortable with, such as sharing email passwords or looking through your text messages. It's important to talk about setting boundaries, but also ensure that both of your needs are being fulfilled.

Communication and trust is the key to a beautiful relationship. Have patience with your new partner and allow the relationship to flourish. Being cheated on is a painful experience but allow it to flow at a steady place

Try to talk to her/him and if you don't feel comfortable you should try to leave it behind because it's hurting you someday

Move ahead with this relationship with time and patience. Trust needs both. Try to encourage your partner that you are NOT the past mate who cheated and count every step your partner takes in trusting you as a positive reinforcement to your relationship. Someone who is able to get over the past and look positively to the future is worth working with in a committed and lasting future!

Just know that it's going to be hard. They are going to bring baggage from past relationships. Remember this quote, "Baggage may only feel like an insulator against future pain, but it’s only the perception of self-control that makes as feel protected." Be prepared. There could be self-doubt, paranoid about infidelity, comparing you to past lovers, building walls (not opening themselves to you completely, shutting you out), and holding back commitment. Just be prepared. There will be times that you'll be frustrated and angry at your partner. If it gets out of control and you feel like you done everything that you can to ensure them that you're not like that other person and you would never hurt them but they constantly questioning you and they just can't get through the past, then it's time to take a step back. Ask yourself if you really want to constantly prove your loyalty. If you can okay with the fact that they can't fully put their trust in you because of some past lover. Then based of your answer, the relationship will either over or it's back on.
