I have been in a 3-year relationship with my boyfriend. We are generally a happy couple-- we have fights, but are always able to work it out through communication. But recently, something happened that has really put our relationship in strain.
Last May, I went out-of-the-country for a three-month vacation. He wanted to come with me, but he couldn't leave work so I went alone. For the whole three months, I thought everything was okay with us. I mean, he'd stay up until the wee hours in the morning just so we can talk on Skype. He'd send me messages telling me that he misses me and he wants me to come home. So, when I came home, I was really excited to see him. He even went to the airport to pick me up despite his busy schedule. A few days after arriving, I received a message from an anonymous person stating the my boyfriend has been dating the messenger's friend. According to the person, my boyfriend and the girl broke up two weeks before I arrived. Since it was an anonymous message, I didn't believe it right away. Then, I asked my boyfriend. He admitted everything.
HIS SIDE OF THE STORY: He did go out with a girl while I was away, but he didn't consider it as dating. He said they were just hanging out. He admitted that he brought her to his hometown and introduced her to his relatives - but only as a friend. His brother and aunt confirmed that he did not introduce her as his girlfriend. He also admitted that they went on a weekend trip to the beach. But he assured me that nothing happened to them ever. They never kissed or had sex. He told me that a month before I came home, he felt very guilty about what he has been doing and started to avoid the girl, but the girl kept calling him-- until he finally confronted her and told her that he wants to end it and stay with me.
THE GIRL'S SIDE OF THE STORY (as told by her friend only): They have been officially dating and he even introduced her as his girlfriend to his family. Yes, they did go on a weekend trip and she said she MAY BE pregnant.
MY THOUGHTS:
Ever since I found out about this, my boyfriend has been trying to fix things. He asked for my forgiveness and he asked me for a second chance. He has been trying to regain my trust as well. But the thing is, as much as I'd like to move on and be happy with him again, I don't think I can if I'm still bothered about this. I am planning to talk to the girl herself and my boyfriend as well- face to face. I want them to tell them the whole story together. My question is, is this the right thing to do? Or should I just be contented with what my boyfriend told me and just try to move on? Also... Is it wrong/stupid that I'm giving him a second chance?
