I don't really know what went wrong the last time. Things seemed to be going great. Then the winter & holidays came & it seemed like he just slipped back into depression. He was also very stressed about starting his new business.
Since he has come back, he said he feels like I just didn't trust him the last time. This is due to the fact that I confronted him about a 21 yr old guy friend he was hanging with that I didn't know & he looked really guilty when he got home late and I am afraid that this is the kid that introduced him to the stripper he was visiting every night when he left me the last time.
To me, I feel like trust needs to be earned back, it is not just granted. He told me last night that I need to trust him. But in our thirteen yrs together, he has cheated on me (EA's & PA's) 3 times, and he has left me twice in this last year - how do I just suddenly trust him?
I am glad to hear your suggestion about not pushing him to do MC. I just don't think it would fly to well. I know that if we start to have issues or a lack of communication - then I will definetly bring it up then and ask him to go with me.
