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

You show them you won't cheat on them and earn their trust. Saying it is one thing. Showing it is another

You should show how much this person means to you emotionally and physical. Let them know you love them and don't want to hurt them.

Make sure that you remind them everyday that you support them and their every thought and that you will be with them every step of the way. Tell them how much you care and how open you are to them for them to vent to you about anything.

When someone got cheated in past, then his trust part would be fragile one and he would be cautious to trust other person. In such situation, you could try to provide emotional support to the person and allow him the time to trust you. It will need perseverance.

I would be patient and understanding, towards their feelings. I would respect their boundaries if there appear to be some and I would wait for them to come around, and feel as if that they can trust me.

Many people have been betrayed in past relationships and it may be hard to trust again. With that being said, they have willing entered into a relationship with you which means there is a level of trust between you two. Be understanding of their insecurities but do not let them become toxic. Being a faithful and loyal partner is not always easy but neither is being in a relationship. I suggest the age old method of treat them as you wish to be treated

He or she might have a fragile heart and lack of self-esteem, they need sense of security and love. I guess the best you can do is to show your love constantly.

To be honest, I don't think that there is anything you can do other than be yourself. If they have been cheated on in the past, its highly likely that they have been told that they are the one, there is no one else and they love that person before etc. But then cheated on this person regardless. Saying that again although true to you, will probably not be believed by the other person because it has happened before. As the old phrase goes, "actions speaks louder than words" and I think it is extremely relevant here. Just show that person the most love and the most compassion you possibly can, be there for this person no matter what and prove to them that this person is the only one and that there is no one else. Sooner or later the "barrier" and issue of being cheated on previously will disappear and it will no longer be a present problem with this person and you will be both better off for it :)

That's a great question if you are looking to learn to have the best tools on how to help them if they need any support having gone through something really unpleasant. I think it's all down to communication which is asking and talking and trying and then getting feedback on how you are doing and if you are doing the right things for them to make them feel safer. And the only person whom you can and need to ask that question to is the person you are dating. Only they can tell you how to help them and also what kind of help they need and if they need any help at all or just important things you should know to help them feel comfortable regarding that past traumatic event. Nobody but that person can tell you what they need and is best for them and it's simple to know by just asking them and seeing if they are keen communicators as well, who want to be proactive and tell you what you need to know. Communication needs two to tango. Good luck

Ask them if they would like to talk about it. See if your partner would like to open up and tell you about the experience.
