Should I forgive him?

    My boyfriend and I broke up on Wednesday. He was in to smoking and drugs, but he was trying to quit. We had been together for 11 months, and I couldn't trust him because of how much he lied to me about the drugs. On Sunday, we had decided that we were going to get back together soon, when he quit all of that stuff. But he also told me that when he went to the movies on Friday night, my friend, Sophie tried to get with him, but he said no. Lastnight, someone told me that they saw Sophie and my boyfriend kissing at the movies on Friday night. I tricked Sophie into telling me, and she asked me not to tell my boyfriend that she told me. I confronted him, and he lied to me. I keep telling him that I know, but I can't tell him that Sophie told me. So he lied, but I still love him. What should I do?

    You can do so much better than him! ditch him, and find someone new. Thats my advice. This "friend" sophie doesn't sound that nice either.

    "Trying" to quit is not a good reason for choosing to be with someone unless you like being second or third in importance to drugs or any other addiction. And lying is a perpetual behavior among drug users. If you try, I guarantee that you will not be able to compete against addictive behavior. You will only face heartbreak and continually wonder why. That's just the nature of relationships with drug/substance abusers. If you really like this guy, give him 2-3 years to live clean and sober before you take him back into your life.

    I'm not really the one who should be giving out relationship advice but if I were you I'd forget about him and move on. You deserve someone better. Drugs are one thing. They can be removed from someones life. But lying? Thats an everlasting stain on a relationship. I understand that you still love him. It will fade after awhile if you really want it to. Anyhow I hope that you find this a bit helpful. Good luck with any decisions. ~Chels~

    First of all dump his lieing cheating ass. You obviously know the truth and if that girl people say your boyfriend kissing was any kind of friend she would never of done that and would never of made you make that kind of promise. So tell your boyfriend who told you that him and her actually kissed. Get someone to follow his ass around and video tape what he does and if they catch him doing something he shouldn't get that girl and him together in your livingroom pop the tape in and confront them both about it. You need a man who wont do shit like that and you need a friend that will treat you right and wont lie to you an try to steal ur man.

    well what i think you should do is forget about him ok you can do much better than that ,yea you can forgive him but hes always going to lie to you common or you are not going to bealive him when he tries to tell you something yup thats what i think and look the reason why i say to forgive him is you and him dont have the same feelings you love him and how you are telling me about your friend and him kissing well right their shows that he really does not have the same feelings forget about him because if you dont your the only one who is going to get hurt more than you are right
    now trust me well hopefully you do the right thing and hopefully my advice helps you and everything truns out good well wish you da best bye
