If you love them, even if it's a sensible situation, go for it! That was a different phase of their lives, with a different person. Of course, if you feel insecure about that, talk with them, communication's the key to any relationship. Just remember that mistakes are a natural thing to any human being, and we learn with them. Wathever your decision is, I wish you the best of luck!

Let bygones be bygones. If that person did something in past. Doesn't mean he she will repeat it. But if you have this fear, be open about it n tell this to your partner

If you know the person for a good time, try to get to know his/her intentions, or have a good talk :)

I believe everyone deserves a 2nd chance, despite their past, despite their mistakes they have made in the past. You might have doubts, you might have worries but this "Once a cheater, always a cheater" stuff I believe is wrong. Everyone can change, If they want to be with you and love you truly then they will show it and prove it, actions prove much more than words

I would ask myself can I forgive that person? Can I trust in that person again? Because if the answer it's no I think it would make things complicated.

One thing one has to understand that, there isn't anybody out there who hasn't made any mistakes. The beauty lies in forgetting and giving the person the space to learn from the mistake.

Firstly you shouldn't get too attached not too just people who cheated in the past but anyone you date in the start. Secondly if he has learned from his mistakes and you're sure he did there's not much to be worried if he learned from his mistakes and moved on. By time pay attention to the things he says and test his loyalty.

I am currently in a relationship in which I have been cheated on. I suggest making it apparent on what you are insecure with and affirming your partner that you will not stand with treatment that is any less than what you expect. It is important to keep your standards high, and if cheating is something you are not fond of, let them know. Obvious trust and communication issues will arise, and I advice that you address them. Remember, depending on the severity of the situation you are in, if you are not satisfied with how you are treated, know that you never have to stay. If your partner is willing to put in the time, patience and effort to correct and fix any cracks in your relationship alongside you, it is worth your time. If they are not willing to be a positive person in your life, a toxic relationship is not worth it. Stay strong, and if you need any further advice, let me know. :)

Be careful. They may have learned from it, but they could also still be a cheater. If it makes you too uncomfortable, then you have every right to leave them. Otherwise, it may be worthwhile to talk to them about it.

If you trust them then there shouldnt be a problem. Trust in relationships is extremely important so if theres no trust, there needs to be a conversation where you talk about the issue.
