I have been on and off with my girlfriend for almost two years now. We have a son who we both love very much. She says she loves me and I love her. Our last break-up was 7 months ago. I have contacted her and was ready to ask her to get back with me for good. However, I thought that before this could happen we would have to be completely honest with each other in regards to people we have been dating in the 7 months we have been apart. I confessed to her that I was dating someone for 5 months and became sexually involved as well. This was very hard for me to admit since I knew this would hurt her. However, she also admitted she had become sexually involved with another man as well. This just "killed" me. I cannot get over this. It has completely ruined my plans in getting back with her. I felt it coming but did not want to believe it. Anyhow, I do not know what to do now. I don't think I can accept her like that now. I know I am being selfish but it is just the way I think. Any thoughts anyone?

ARG!
HELLO! Can we say double standard boys and girls??? I give up, why is it ok for you and not for her? I am a man, and posts like this make me understand some feminists feelings.
But my purpose is to lift up not to destroy so listen carefully. If you get anything,say a vcr, and you want to get the most out of it you would read the instructions written by its maker right? Well you were created by God, and he wrote an instruction manual for life called the Bible. In it you will read that for a man and a woman to live together and have children you should be married. A commited monogomous relationship they call it today by people afraid to say "God", and or marriage. When you commit yourself to meeting each others needs EXCLUSIVLY for life you dont find yourself having these problems.
There is a lot of good materiel on this site to read until your ordered copies of His Needs Her Needs and Love Busters get there. Read them together, and if you have any feelings for each other at all the rest should be crystal clear.
May God be with you both.
