Do not rush your partner. Talk to each other, show that you care about your partner,show him/her that you are someone who can be trusted.

Be patient, and know that a lot of their insecurities can stem from somewhere outside your relationship. Stay faithful (of course) and be kind to them, but also remember that you cannot fix everything, much less the mistakes of someone else’s past.

Show them sympathy, listen to them and be supportive. They might be afraid you're going to cheat to, and show them you're not instead of saying you're not.

Make them feel safe. Prove to them that you're different by your actions.simply just be yourself. Loyal and trustworthy

You have to be patient with your significant other. Their trust has been broken so they’re regaining it with you. It’s not your fault the things they’ve been through but it does take a toll on you as well. Just be kind and understanding.

be upfront, honest and considerate of this person's feelings and reservations. it is hard being cheated on and understanding that trust is so fragile and can be broken very easy will help you to keep the relationship healthy

In my opinion just make them feel loved and prove to them that you will not hurt them in that way. They are going to have trust issues and the fact that they are not going to fully trust you from the start will hurt you. You are just going to have to put the person first and show them you care in order to heal them.

People who have been cheated on typically have a hard time trusting others, especially those in a newer relationship. Most of those people who have been cheated on need reassurance. I know it may get hard to do, but if you love them or really want it to work, it'll work out.

No one can tell you what to do as far as your relationship, but there are many things YOU can do! You can review your relationship and decide if staying is best for you. Can you forgive them? Can you move forward? Can you trust them? Is this the first time? Etc. Write it down and imagine yourself giving this advice to a friend or child. What would you tell your sister/brother to do if they had the same relationship you did? Good luck and I hope you find peace not only in this situation but in all aspects of your life.

You should treat them with respect and stay calm when they continuously check in to make sure that you still love them. They have been through a lot. Don’t stress if they get paranoid or anxious. Tell them that you love them and see how it goes.
