Q: Relationship Based On Lies

I've never posted on this board before but I really need some advice/comfort.....

I dated this guy for 8 months, and last week I told him I wanted to take a break, for many reasons, one of which is I feel like we're too serious, and i'm in college, I want to have fun...He tried to convince me not to take a break and he got kind of upset that I suggested it.

And then, this morning, I found out a few things accidently:
- he slept with his ex like 2 days before we started dating. And he never told me about it.....Before when I asked him about what happened that night he said nothing and that he just passed out.
- a few times when i've been out of town, he's been drinking and he's told his ex to come over to hook up. He even told her shes hot and just as pretty as me.

I don't know what to do, I haven't talked to him today since i've found out about this stuff, and i'm not sure what I want to say. We aren't really on a break, we're sort of still together (for now)..But being around him has felt so weird and just not right lately. He says he loves me and would never hurt me, etc, but I feel like our relationship has been based on lies. I dont know what to do, please someone give me some advice!

Hello iltb:
I can go on for hrs.With advice for you.1st,do not attempt to go back with him.Simply put: he lied!!!!! I can almost understand if he kept it from you but you had outright asked him.If you proceed in the relationship with this "man",you will be asking him alot of questions down the road in which he will lie. I have been with my mate for 3 yrs.Now and I still find certain things out that he denies and I know they are lies. I know you must feel weird being around him just as I feel weird being around my mate because of the lies.I look at him in a different way now.It is a lonely feeling.I don't feel as happy around him like I use to. I really don't know how someone can say,"i love you," but then lie.Love&lie??? I say,have safe fun,stay in college,keep busy and "don't give your all to one person." have a nice day.Take care :)

If you wanted a break anyway then just let it go. You don't want to get to serious let the guys know in the beginning so there is ever a misunderstanding. Make it clear you need your space. If he cheated then drop him. From my experience and what I have seen in my friendships through life is this. Once a person cheats it can never be the same. If given the chance it will happen again too. That doesn't mean the other is looking to cheat but if the oppurtunity come up they will take it without thinking. This is from a male perspective.
