My gf lied about something in her past.

I've been in a serious relationship with my gf for about 5 months now. We tell each other everything. Our relationship is built on trust and honesty but i found out this past weekend she lied about something she did before she met me. I met her online. I asked her if i was the only guy she slept with online and she told me yes. I asked if she slept with this one guy she met online and she said no. he was weird and not my type. I was a little suspicious about this because she came to my place on the 2nd date and we hooked up but no sex. we had sex on the 3rd date. I trusted her answer but she told me this past weekend that she slept with that guy from online after i kept asking her. She slept with him on the 2nd date. She told me she lied because it was so recent and she was embarrassed and didn't wont it to affect our relationship. I see where she is coming from but she always told me our relationship is about trust. she said she has never lied about anything from when she met me.

i want to let it go and move on but i just dont know if she has lied to me about anything else. Is the trust between us broken now? plus they were following each other on instagram and she liked one of his photos a few weeks after we met. she shows me all the text she gets from guys and replies that she has a bf. we hangout all the time too. she said she told the guy she just wanted to be friends with him after we met the first time. she said they had nothing in common. not sure why she slept with him. she stopped following him on instagram after i told her it bugged me to have guys she used to talk to on there. My gf has slept with 25 guys and she is 29. we are pretty open about everything. would this lie about her past bother you? would you lie about something like this to your partner not to hurt them?

    It bothers me that you talk about looking at her texts and monitoring her interactions with guys. That's not something that belongs in a healthy relationship, and totally aside from who's slept with whom, it could be a bad sign for how much trust there is in your relationship. It isn't fair to dictate to her who she can talk to or follow. She's your girlfriend, not your pet; you can't leash her.

    She was embarrassed by this incident, not turned on by it or interested in repeating it, so why does it matter so much to you? You've only been with her for five months; there is still a lot about her you don't know, and vice-versa.

    Lighten up. If you can't lighten up and let her be with you by choice instead of by your constant vigilance and snarling at other men to keep them away from your "property," then do her a favor and break up with her. Jealous, controlling boyfriends are awful.

    How old are you? I think that a partner has the right to keep things for himself/herself and not share it if he/she feels that it's not the right time and if he/she doesn't know if the relationship will become serious or not.

    Your curiosity is killing you. You have certainly asked her many questions and now that you have the answers it is bothering you.

    Straight up , you fucked up , you hit the idiot gear take it as a loss and learn from it , yeah your a lil bitch for caring about
    People she slept with, but your right to be jealous , I feel you dog ,trust makes relationships but it's doesn't help them grow it just makes them stable , she lied to you , now your paranoid but you truly need to get over it , most likely you never will get over it , but guess what no one can . The people that are telling you to grow up and are mad at your for asking are the people on the other side of the relationship , your girls not a slut she's just a person , although Judging someone based on there past isn't okay , it's truly what makes you yourself , everyone likes to act like they get over shit , but they don't they just forget , don't kid yourself jealousy isn't okay but it does bring a clear picture of you and your partner

    The BIG PICTURE here,, We ALL have a past when we find ourself in a relationship. Her past is her past, Your past is your past. Drop it before she decides to pack her stuff and move on to someone that isnt so hung up on THE PAST, as in YEARS BEFORE SHE MET YOU. Maybe she was embarrassed, or just didnt feel good about the decisions she made in her life. You need to let it go before she rethinks the decision to continue dating you. But also,, I will just bet you are the Jealous sort of guy. Jealousy is like cancer,, it will tear lives apart in no time.

    It's none of your business who she slept with before you met her and you sound insecure by asking her and making her feel she has to prove she isn't talking to other guys.

    If you keep that shit up she will most likely leave you and I wouldn't consider 5 months a serious relationship. You're still in the honeymoon phase..

    Okay. I consider myself to be a guy with minor trust issues, but you are going a little over the top. It's okay to be worried/overprotective of your woman, but you can't obsess over these things. If you are worried, talk to her. Communication is everything. I recently got a little jelly cause my gf told me her ex said certain things to her that made me want to kill the kid. We talked about it calmly, got over it. If you can't talk about it, your relationship may be in trouble. Best of luck

    Did you find out why it embarrassed her? If she didn't want to admit it to herself, telling another can be quite dfficult.
