I have been with my boyfriend 7 months, im 22 an ive never had a releationship before an im besotted with my man an he is with me. He has a 2 year old who i love dearly.

a few days ago i was browsing through his laptop looking at family pics an i came across pics of his ex (babys mum) naked. Also a sexual video. After a talk with my man he cried and pleaded he didnt no they were still on there they where over a year ago. I beleive him but i cant get the video out of my head. i no he was with her for 4 years an they both hate each other but its tearing me apart seeing him in that situation with her!

He would never cheat i no him so well, hes devostated i seen it But i cant get it out my mind, im looking at him differently an i cant sleep with him, when we where at it 3 times a day.

The problem you describe has to be solved between you and your boyfriend. If you both believe each other, then the problem is already solved. If you cannot take the picture out of your head for a longer period (months), then you might want to seek help from a psychotherapist. If there are no signs that he is cheating on you, then do not end a nice relationship by overreacting to non important things.
