I'm dating someone who has cheated in the past. What should I do?

Talk to them! Explain that you have heard about their past, and tell them how that makes you feel. As well, just clear the air, tell them how you feel about the topic of cheating and if relevant, your experience with it. Communication is key in relationship's and you will never find the answers you are looking for until you ask. People do change and can learn from their mistakes. Sometimes, not having the whole story too can lead to problems such as gossip. All in all my biggest thing would be just to have a conversation with your significant other.

This can be a difficult situation, I'm sorry that this has happened to you. Once somebody cheats, it is difficult to rebuild trust and it is definitely something that takes time. Your partner needs to make an effort in order to prove their commitment to you. Trust takes a long time to build, but can be destroyed quickly, so it's wise to proceed with caution. I believe that people are capable of change. We all make mistakes, it's the lessons that we learn from our mistakes that define us. Try to focus on communication between yourself and your partner. Good luck and feel free to message me if you need to chat. This is a safe space.

It can always be really hard when we enter a relationship with someone who either cheated in the past, or was cheated on as both of those scenarios come with their share of problems. One thing to keep in mind is that people can and do change. At the same time, it would be wise to just be alert to the fact that your partner had cheated in the past, but not so much so that it gets in between you and your relationship with them. It might also be a good idea to have a discussion about it and voice your concerns to your partner. Communication is key!

It depends on the amount of time that has gone by, it is possible that he/she has changed if enough time has passed. I would be slow with the relationship and look for possible red flags. If he/she stills show the same behavior, then i would suggest to move on. You don't want to get hurt again by making the same mistakes. You should talk it out with him/her, and really make sure you two are in the right terms again. Try to start over if the time length has been great. If it has not been that long, i would tread carefully, and take the relationship slow and don't jump back to where you were at previously.

I think trust in a relationship is very important. Personally, If you love this person and believe this was in the past, i'd put my trust in them. I'd also try to make it very clear that you are putting your trust in them. If you find out they have cheated on you, It's time to talk to them, and say goodbye. It's different for everyone, some people change, others don't. But the worst thing you can do is live in fear. Trust your gut but don't sneak around trying to catch them. Be honest about your thoughts, and don't settle for someone who doesn't see your worth.

Proceed with caution. I know many answers might encourage you not to be on your guard; however, such behaviours are sadly often repeated. I would act normally with my partner, but note any abnormal behaviour. For instance, I would not if they angle their cellphone away from me or engage in suspicious social media activity. That being said, whether cheating will be repeated is dependant on the reason for cheating and the age of your partner when they cheated. This information will allow you to determine their ability to control themselves, commit and reveal character flaws. If you feel like this kind of relationship will cause you too much anxiety or impact your mental health negatively, I would share this with my partner (counselling) or choose someone more suitable.

Just like taking a break from your job search is important, so is having the right mindset. It is hard to be a job seeker, applying for many jobs and possibly not hearing back from employers. Work to focus on the progress you are making with each application—honing your search tactics, getting efficient with your application process, and understanding what keywords to use for an ATS are all important tools to use as you go through your search. Each time you apply for a job, you are improving your process, and that’s great progress to landing a job. nice

Hii! Thanks for the question! So many people have asked it on some other sites, and I would really love to answer as I have been in a similar situation. First of all, cheating is always a choice. There is no room for cheating when people want to be honest. *Read the previous line again.* Yes, WANT to be honest. You can never be honest unless it's your desire to shower your deepest concentration to that particular person. So, if the person you are dating has cheated in the past, it doesn't necessarily mean it is his character for a lifetime. Something might have gone wrong, something might have forced him too, or they might have needed support which their previous partner was not providing. Still, doubting them based on past relations is not going to help. Ask them about their reasons, and keep an eye out. Encourage them to spend time together, and earn their trust. This is what I learnt in my experience, and we are 1 year in and still going strong. Please feel free to tell me if I am wrong.

Go slowly. While past behaviour is a good indicator of future behaviour, this is not always the case. Trust should be established over time, so don't rush the connection. Make time to have personal conversations, and share your concerns and feelings openly and honestly. Pay attention to how your partner reacts to what you share. Are they attentive, understanding, open? Or are they dismissive? You are worthy of love and care, and it's okay to leave to find a person you can put your faith in. Tread with care, and keep your heart open! Good things can happen to you.

Make sure that it won't happen again. Understand the reasons why they have done it, and if there is the possibility it will happen again. Get to know them. If you get really into the person, then you can think about how their behaviour in a previous relationship can apply to yours. The key is understanding the reasons for their past actions, if they are have regretted it or if they feel indifferent towards it. Cheating is always a very hurtful act, which I have experienced first hand. I would say to try to understand the entity and the context of their behaviour. Some people don't mind someone's past. It really depends on one's moral compass how to approach such a situation
