Is it normal i don't know if i should trust him?
There are two views on my relationship at the moment and they're messing with me. Not sure if I should trust him or not.
1) A while ago, when we started getting more intimate and closer, I found out he was messaging a former fling from outside of the country. I confronted him and he said "I was only talking to her like that cause I knew I was never gonna see her again you know?!" No I don't know. He shouldn't be talking to anybody and if he felt like he had the right to then he should've just said so since we weren't official yet. I would've understood and knew that okay we can apparently talk to other people. But him lying means he did consider us serious where he knew he would get in trouble if he was talking to someone else. So basically, I felt cheated on. He was either using me or using her or both of us. Their messages were like "omg come back!" "I miss you...remember when..." and he said those were just for fun messing with her. Okay...that sucks for her. Either way, he looked like a scumbag and wasn't sure if I could trust him from then on.
2) More recently, we argued after questioning his feelings for me and he ended up getting very emotional. I thought I would never see him like that. We had some alcohol in our system but still conscious. So it probably pushed him a little to tear up but still, it was genuine. He felt bad and left for a while and I found him in the room with his head down like wow he's feeling pretty hurt and down. I feel like I hurt his feelings cause I'm always doubting him but can u blame me when he does things like the 1st example? Another girl came into the picture recently. I knew they were hanging out with his other friend and he was "snapchatting" her often since they were "best friends." Then she requested me out of no where like how do u know who I am? Just another nosy one.
Idk what to believe on top of other mixed signals. That time he teared up makes me believe he does care about me but then these instances get me suspicious.
