going nowhere

I have been in a relationship for awhile now and we have been having problems about my past. I lied to him a year ago when we first met about not talking to any other guys. I hate that I did and I have apologixed . this was a year ago we didn’t start dating until the first of this year. tonight he read a few old messages from a year ago and started asking me questions about who these people were and why didn’t he know about them. I hit upset and stormed off slamming the door behind me. he says that was disrecpectful and stupid. up until this morning he was the exact same way. so because I reacted a certain way I’m stupid because he has changed. I don’t know why my past relationships are such a big issue to him that every time something comes up about my past we fall out and he ends the relationship. I love him with my all and he taking it and using it against me . I want our relationship to grow even though it. seems that we no longer have anything.

Alright. Everyone's got a past. Trust me, everyone here knows by now that I do. The thing that mattes is how you compose yourself about the past. You can either let your mistakes run your life or you can choose to let it be a forward force and drive you to be a better person. Getting upset is perfectly normal. Getting up, running from your conversation, and slamming the door is not mature. That being said sometimes you've got to just leave a conversation in order to calm down collect yourself and get moving forward. Both of you seem to be in need of some growing up.

Maybe you need to let him know that your past relationships made you who you are today and have helped you grow. That those relationships are in the past and that you're focusing on him and this relationship now. You've got to tell him that you're insecure in it and that you think it's on the rocks. Communication is one of the first things to go in a failing relationship. Maybe he has more questions about your past; is it going to be difficult to answer them? Probably - but, it is going to strengthen your bond with him.

Swifting, not just my past but he has helped me become a better person. I love him with my all. I told him i lied to him about something in my past. He said since i lied can't be together. It was a lie and i apologized and i know i was wrong. I just felt telling him was just going to leadto either losing him or having him throw it up in my face later. Let me just tell you. He read an. email from a guy that was a year old before him and i ever stared dating and the guy mentioned something vulgar in the message. .He read it and was shocked . We have been arguing for the past. Week everyday. So when he asked me about it i lied. He had done this before and i have always told him the truth he only throws it up in my face later. I just couldn't take adding something else to the fire. We talked the morning before and he said he said changing and he wasn't going to do these things any more. But when he started the questions about my past again i felt he was doing the samething all over i lied. I know that might not have been the right thing took do but i didn't want to argue anymore . Afew hours later i told him lied and i apologized. He ended our relationship and said he can'ttrusty me. I'm hurt and heart broken. I don't knowwhat else to do. I tried to explain to him my reason and he saif iy diesnt matter he csnt be with a liar. He is my all and now he h ad no trust in me and has ended our relationship he says he doesn't see how it can be repaired.
