I have trouble trusting women.

I had this girlfriend for three years and I was in love with her, but about a year ago I broke up with her because she cheated on me. Keep in mind this is the SECOND time she cheated on me. The first time she did it, I broke up with her but she asked me to come back to her and I (mistakingly) gave her a second chance. Ever since I broke up with her (which was about a year ago), none of the relationships I've had worked out at all. It was all because I had trouble trusting them, which drove them nuts and ultimately lead to them breaking up w/ me. I always worried about where they are, what they're doing, if they have any guy friends, if they're going to parties and getting drunk? All these questions kept running through my head because I've been so petrified of getting cheated on again. At college whenever I see an attractive girl and I'm thinking about walking up to her and saying something, the first thing that comes to mind is "is she promiscuous? Has she had more sexual partners than you have? Is it really worth it?" and I lose all confidence and give up. I mean, I want a girlfriend, but I know the relationship wouldn't work because I just can't trust women. What do you guys think?

    After being cheated on not only once but also a second time, I can say it's quite normal to have some trust issues. However, not all girls are the same and you should move on and seek out a nice girl and give her a chance.

    Just be more careful in your choices next time and remember that you cannot watch/track them 24/7 so it's better to just hope that they're not doing anything wrong. When you are with the right person, you'll know you can trust her. I've had this problem, but I take the view that you have to give everyone a chance until they prove you wrong, ok?
