I agree that it's always a risk when you realise that someone you are currently with has already cheated someone in their past, but sometimes all humans make mistakes it could only be a mistake, it's better for you to talk to your partner regarding this concern. It's always better to have the air clear around us.

Focus on the here and now. This person may have changed, or not. Only you will know if you can ever be comfortable enough to trust that person with your heart. Trust your instinct. What does it say to do?

Talk to them about it. If you are worried about it then discuss it with them, why you are worried about it, how you feel, how they feel. Don't be afraid to talk because it is very important to acknowledge this to move forward with the relationship. You need to trust each other

They say that if someone has cheated before, it is likely that they will cheat again. "Once a cheater, always a cheater." However, I think it's safe to say that everyone has made some mistakes in the past that they aren't too proud of. Though it wouldn't hurt to be cautious, I would not immediately dismiss the person if you think that they are truly capable of changing.

Establish boundaries and clear communication rules. Your partner should be willing to do this for you and be understanding about your reasons.

Keep going. People learn from their mistakes and sometimes just need to be given another chance. Keep going until he/she does the same with you. Then, move on.

Talk to them about it, and make sure you are at an understanding. Ask them why they did it, and tell them how you feel. Good luck x

Its up to you. Your choice to trust that someone. In my opinion, everyone should have another chance. If you think the person is sincere enough to put the effort, then give him/her a chance.
